Where Shall I Sleep? Lyrics


Every night I climb out of my coffin

I can find no real rest

Since they stole my body from my open grave

While no heart was beating within my chest

Nightmares haunt me, straight out of hell

For I know I’m a monster

I pull the rope to hear the sound of the bell

Godfather gimme back the sleep I once had

They’re coming, they’re coming

Coming to take control

Black widow and the witchfinder general

Coming to feast on my soul

I roam around for hours and hours

But I hide away from the daylight

Nobody shall see me like I am now

Not a really delicious sight

I know that I decay why do I still run

Is it to find the passage to my eternal rest

I curse my maker for what I have become

Bound to walk on and on, even after my last breath

They’re coming, they’re coming

Coming to take control

Black widow and the witchfinder general

Coming to feast on my soul

Where shall I sleep now?

Take me back to my grave

I long for my eternal sleep

Don’t want to be life’s slave

I surrender to the re-animators

I return to my cage

But still I beg to be set free from the living

The final curtain has been dropped on my stage

Why can’t they let me stay in my eternal sleep?

Unearthly pain fills my head

I open my mouth to yell and weep

A call to arms for the army of the living dead

They’re coming, all fellow corpses

To free my burning soul

They dismember the bastards who molested my corpse

And take me back to the hole

Where shall I sleep now?

Take me back to my grave

I long for my eternal sleep

Don’t want to be life’s slave
