lyrics

Senses made to acute by virtue of disease
I've been watching these past seven nights
To see the evil eye
Though no wrong doing was percieved
There is murder in my heart
And the old man must die

So precise in calculation must his execution be
For so well planned and well thought out, I cannot be insane
I must watch him every night to try and see the eye
The moment must be perfect

The last night I saw the evil eye
A single thin ray of light shone upon it
I knew my time to strike, in that moment
He shrieked once before he never spoke again

Methodically and carefully he was dismembered
I cleaned the pieces of the corpse before their interment
Under the floor boards shall be his final resting place
Out of sight and out of mind

But in the dark I can still hear his heart
Under the floor, yet I can hear it beating
The ringing in my ears, growing ever louder
Can they hear it? Can they?
