He never gave me grief, I wasn't greedy for the gold

He was a good old man, temptation never appeared at all

My baddest worries rose up when his pale glass eye fell upon me

Designed a perfect plan, he never could flee!

It happened every night, it happened after dark

Close to his room, I turned the latch of doom.

The envisioned purpose would be done using a tie

to blind him from his life, shutting down that insane eye!

He screamed in horror, I swore his name

Lurking his chamber, dimming his flame

Panic seized my soul, elder's passing had to come

I pulled him into the floor, his eye would burden me no more.

From there the job consisted in dismembering the corpse.

Hidden under planks, feeling no remorse!

Merciless law showed up beating the (front) door:

His groan of mortal terror, turned into an error

My aim was to persuade'em it had been a misconception

But nothing was precise, total self-deception!

I screamed in horror, I swore his name

Lurking his chamber, dimming his flame

I pled for them to inspect, all seemed to be accurate

Carefully I waited, upon the wooden grave I faked

My apparent serenity convinced them of my innocence

A sound inside my head, a blasting turbulence

Noises getting louder, (louder, louder!)

Couldn't stand no more, I had to admit it all

Derision of fatality uncovering the planks

Tormenting melody arisen from his beating heart!
