Witch in the Cellar Lyrics


I know you're lurking in the shadows

I can't see you but I feel you on my skin

In my brain, try to drive to me to the gallows

frozen autumn hear your cackle in the wind

I awaken, the strike of midnight

paralyzed in a dreadful, icy sweat

'cause I'm afraid that the Devil's got a daughter

and he sent her out collecting on his debts

I begged her to leave me

you know I begged her to leave me alone

but she laughed in my face

and she followed me all the way home

witch in the cellar, she knows

won't let me leave it behind

witch in the cellar, she knows

taking control over my mind

I wanted riches, I wanted power

I let you temp me with the nectar from your fruit

and now I'm paying for the sins of my decisions

my soul is burning and there's nothing I can do

I begged her to leave me

you know I begged her to leave me alone

but she laughed in my face

and she moved right into my home

witch in the cellar, she knows

wont let me leave it behind

witch in the cellar, she knows

taking control over my mind

you know your spell has infected my heart

nothing can help when the magic's this dark

you know your spell has infected my heart

I should have known, should have known from the start

won't you please let me, please let me go

witch in the cellar, she knows

wont let me leave it behind

witch in the cellar, she knows

taking control over my mind
