In Arkham

Описание: [Verse 1]
Shuttered house on Garrison Street
Porch light dead
But something moves
Curtains breathe like they're alive
Someone hums in an attic room
Old red stain on the cellar door
Town folk say it's rust
Not blood
But the dog won't cross that line
And the rain smells wrong tonight

[Chorus]
In Arkham
The clocks run crooked
Every shadow knows your name
In Arkham
The church bells falter
As if they’re choking on a prayer
Don't look up
When the sky bends down to stare

[Verse 2]
Librarian locks the basement stacks
Whispers
"Close at nine
Not ten"
There are books that read you back
There are maps that change the end
River shines like a sheet of coal
Yet you hear it babbling teeth
Something bays where the bridge does sit
It wants to drag you down beneath

[Chorus]
In Arkham
The clocks run crooked
Every shadow knows your name
In Arkham
The church bells falter
As if they’re choking on a prayer
Don't look up
When the sky bends down to stare

[Bridge]
Lanterns dim at Miskatonic
Students dream in foreign tongues (oh)
Asylum wards hum in unison
Like they're waiting for someone

[Chorus]
In Arkham
The clocks run crooked
Every shadow knows your name
In Arkham
The church bells falter
As if they’re choking on a prayer
Don't look up
When the sky bends down to stare
Don't look up
Something ancient's breathing there

[Verse 3]
Heavy gates at the cemetery
Moonlight's bright
And something moves
Soil breathes like its alive
Something hums in the eerie gloom
Old red stain on the crypt door
Town priests say it's rust
Not blood
But the gravedigger won't cross that line
and neither should you

[Bridge]
Lanterns dim at Miskatonic
Students dream in foreign tongues (oh)
Asylum wards hum in unison
Like they're waiting for someone

[Chorus]
In Arkham
The clocks run crooked
Every shadow knows your name
In Arkham
The church bells falter
As if they’re choking on a prayer
Don't look up
When the sky bends down to stare
Don't look up
Something ancient's breathing there

[outro]
oh its time
time
i draw the lines
an elder one's sign
i draw the lines
I infuse the design
i say the words
and so do I escape
a brilliant bright flash
blessed blue light take me away.
