Lyrics

[verse] The thing, he said, would come that night at three From the old churchyard on the hill below; But crouching by an oak fire’s wholesome glow, I tried to tell myself it could not be. [bridge] Surely, I mused, it was a pleasantry Devised by one who did not truly know The Elder Sign, bequeathed from long ago, That sets the fumbling forms of darkness free. [chorus] He had not meant it—no—but still I lit Another lamp as starry Leo climbed Out of the Seekonk, and a steeple chimed Three—and the firelight faded, bit by bit. [chorus] Then at the door that cautious rattling came— And the mad truth devoured me like a flame! [guitar solo] [chorus] Then at the door that cautious rattling came— And the mad truth devoured me like a flame! [guitar solo] [chorus] I tried to tell myself it could not be. And the mad truth devoured me like a flame!
