"House By The Grave" lyrics
Yonder stand the sinner
As we rode through dawn
Many miles and children left to burn
There's a place of evil, overthrown with hate
Torturous trial shall seal their fate
Her sins are all evil
Too wicked to save
She smiles out her window
In her house by the grave
As the sun was setting, cold black of night
Under the stars and blue moonlight
There's a house by the lake, past the graveyard wall
I saw a black shape in Satan's claw
Her sins are all evil
Too wicked to save
She smiles by her window
In her house by the grave
You know that she's waiting with forces unseen
Been guided by voices that scream (Oh)
Well, they know that she's evil
And they know that something's not right
And they've seen her bird familiars
As they fly to kill in moonlight
And they know if we kill them
That the curse will fall on this town
But their deeds must not go unpunished
They must burn and rot to the ground
Here come the blackbirds
Flying at her word
Down from the night sky
Fight until we die
As we rode through dawn
Many miles and children left to burn
There's a place of evil, overthrown with hate
Torturous trial shall seal their fate
Her sins are all evil
Too wicked to save
She smiles out her window
In her house by the grave
As the sun was setting, cold black of night
Under the stars and blue moonlight
There's a house by the lake, past the graveyard wall
I saw a black shape in Satan's claw
Her sins are all evil
Too wicked to save
She smiles by her window
In her house by the grave
You know that she's waiting with forces unseen
Been guided by voices that scream (Oh)
Well, they know that she's evil
And they know that something's not right
And they've seen her bird familiars
As they fly to kill in moonlight
And they know if we kill them
That the curse will fall on this town
But their deeds must not go unpunished
They must burn and rot to the ground
Here come the blackbirds
Flying at her word
Down from the night sky
Fight until we die
