Scared of the Dark - The Witch Lady in the Walls Lyrics

There's blood in the house
And inside of these halls
She was butchered by one who had once held her heart
When he held it again it was ripped from her chest
She was stuffed in the walls
But never laid to rest

If it's the Witch Lady you seek
Turn back now she only speaks to me
She showed me the things that are coming to be
But I'm caught in the warning she whispered to me
This is how you rot

Open your eyes, can't you see
All the demons that are running free
They scream for me to leave myself behind
She lifted the veil and I can see
The demons that are haunting me
She screams for me burn them all alive
So tonight it's ignite or die

The moon will rise, the dead will follow
Pull the veil off of the eyes of the meek and hollow
Take this torch, it's all I have left
Spread the light, ignite the flame
For a curse, you've all been blessed

Take these words I know it hurts
Sometimes the things you love
Bury you in dirt
Oh god, I haven't seen a soul like yours
Since he drove the nails through the boards

She is back from the dead
Made her way out of the walls
Her crystal eyes will light the way
If you're scared of the dark
The lady in black came to whisper
To us innocent kids who live here
This is how you rot

Open your eyes can't you see
All the demons that are running free
They scream for me to leave myself behind
She lifted the veil and I can see
The demons that are haunting me
She screams for me burn them all alive
So tonight it's ignite or die

May this chalice of blood
This chalice of hatred
Unshroud thine eyes to his infernal sacred

Open your eyes can't you see
All the demons that are running free
They scream for me to leave myself behind
She lifted the veil and I can see
The demons that are haunting me
She screams for me burn them all alive
So tonight it's ignite or die
