[Intro]
Curtains closed or the ghosts will burn
Eyes open wide, watching the crack in the door
Careful step over the monsters below
Muffled cries calling for me through the floor

[Verse 1]
My little friend dwells in the cellar
My little hands grasp the door handle
Don’t awake the demons in the attic
Creaking stairs down to the fireplace mantle

[Chorus]
The hall light flickers
Heart beats quicker
Father snickers
Stench of liquor

[Verse 2]
Creep through thе shadows into kitchen
The cries grow loudеr and louder piercing my brain
Fractured mind, terrified of the cellar
Godfather clock ticks and tocks in pain
[Chorus]
Clock strikes eleven
Cellar door beckons
Mother reckons
I won’t see heaven

[Bridge]
Slither onto the backyard porch by the cellar
The velvet sky drapes over me like curtain
Open up and look down into the darkness
Staircase spiraling down to a fate most certain

[Bridge}
Blood on the sheets
A trial by fire
A crown painted grey
A family heirloom
Inherit the dust
You’ll be just like us
Bitter and broken
You’ll be just like us
Rotting and smoking
Just like

[Chorus]
Father snickers
Stench of liquor
Mother reckons
I won’t see heaven
Monster growls
In the cellar bowels
Daughter grieves
The monsters never leave
[Outro]
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
