Insanity yes some would say

The story of the Eye

Pure evil such a thing would bring

But the reasons are the whys

Creep and crawl throughout the hall

Pray you won't be seen

Stealth must be your only friend

Or your conscience will gleam your remains

So very nervous you might say

Yet, am I a made man so vile of heart?

No! My senses are sharper than ravens' talons

Well I love the old man truly and deeply I do

But the Eye... Oh god, oh god The Eye must go!

Madness made from fear so bold

Something must be done

Every night at twelve Death stalks

Awaiting to enter the fold

The time has come the end is near

Death's sanity preserved

Abhor to rest the innocent

Not all is as it seems

Peer toward the bedside

What do you see?

A lifeless body with a Vulture's Eye

Gaze fills with terror

How could this be?

The Tell Tale Heart yearns to cry

The deed is done, death has won

The body's in the ground

Gendarmes come to search the yard

But no evidence is found

The confidence now turns to fear

The ringing in my ears

Death confesses to the crime

Tell Tale Heart, he's alive

Peer toward the bedside

What do you see?

A lifeless body with a Vulture's Eye

His gaze fills with terror

How could this be?

The Tell Tale Heart yearns to cry

Peer toward the bedside

What do you see?

A lifeless body with a Vulture's Eye

His gaze fills with terror

How could this be?

The Tell Tale Heart yearns to cry
