Can you sing to me, oh muse, or has your voice gone up in smoke
It’s understandable the fear could clear your mind enough to choke
But if you’ll grant me your attention
Just a darkest hour or two
I’ll spin a story so horrific you’ll be glad it isn’t you
There’s a castle on a cliffside full to brim with death and sin
Where a man arrived one stormy night and begged to be let in
Not the man of which you’re thinking; this is prologue for the rest
For the thing that answered this man’s cries was evil at its best
CHORUS:
It’s familiar like a nightmare
That you know you’ve had before
A deja vu that captures you
And chills you to the core
A tale of woe
Of no way home
Of creatures of the night
You better fear the devil’s bark, ‘cause
Johnny boy, he’s got a bite
“All are welcome in my father’s house” the master in black said
And our victim of the hour felt his heart fill up with dread
Take a look where he directs you, hear the plan he has devised
And take note of all the exits, you’re not leaving here alive
(CHORUS)
And now you have been warned against the horrors yet to come
If you dare to still continue, there’ll be no place left to run
So sit back, relax, enjoy the show you’ve chosen to embark
And no matter what, be careful if you hit play after dark
(CHORUS)

TTBT has some of my favorite songs written by The Mechs. Iphis is my personal favorite due to its ties with Greek Mythology, but it's definitely an album I have on repeat constantly. yumeinati
