The Mausoleum Lyrics

He felt there were devils, demons and such
It all seemed surreal in his mind
He laid down his head and fell into bed
His hands laid over his eyes
As the little boy tried to not think of death
He slowly turned to the tombs
The ones in the field full of the dead
That he gazed at from his room

Something is out there!
The tombstones and nightmares
The fear of the dead is stronger tonight

Yes the boy was obsessed by the crypt on the hill
As it stirred in his soul so it seemed
Intriguing his mind at what was inside
The fear of his childhood dreams?
For back in the fields nearing the woods
The graveyard always in view
Out of his window he peered into death
At places where horror did loom

The nightmares a shock of fear his nerves they now unfold
The dead are out there
Let every fear explode, EXPLODE!

The frenzy a taste of doom it pulls him into spell
The dreadful terror
Imagination hell, HIS HELL!

In instance he woke from out of the doom
By something so real in the night
It made his skin crawl and dance on his bones
His blood was turning to ice...

But what were these cries in the night?

Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum
Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum

It made his skin crawl and danced on his bones
But what were these cries in the night?

Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum
Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum

The hideous cries tore at his mind
He wondered just what made these sounds
Scared beyond words living alone
Frozen in fear all around
He started to think, was someone in need?
Caught by the devils inside
As fear held his hand living his world
Whatever it was was alive!

The next day in the paper he read of a man
Buried alive in the night
Locked in a grave alone without air
He screamed and screamed for his life!

Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum
Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum
Down, deep down, down in the mausoleum
Screams from the grave will lead you to stay far away from the mausoleum!

Down, down, down...
