into the mouth of madness flies

an albatross inside my mind

the nighttime comes and I will cry

the silence when I close my eyes

I cannot breathe, I cannot see

this darkness that envelopes me

all my life I've built these walls

waiting till the darkness falls

headstones and heartbreak

falling in around me

photographs, my memories

why do they escape me

all this booze clouds my mind

and heroin it let's me fly

but when I fall, I burn and cry

only if I fail to die

headstones and heartbreak

falling in around me

photographs, my memories

why do they escape me

my eyes have seen the glory

the coming of The Lord, yeah

my eyes have seen the horror

a wretched, little whore's prayer

into the mouth of madness

living in the throes of sadness

headstones and heartbreak

falling in around me

photographs, my memories

why do they escape me

my eyes have seen the glory

the coming of The Lord, yeah

my eyes have seen the horror

a wretched, little whore's prayer
