He Heard Footsteps Coming Up the Cellar Stairs

from Mortis Nervosa by Vudu Sister

/

lyrics

He’s got a body worse than how he’s dressed
Get’s his chores all done and he cleans his mess
He’s got a white face, long face
Heard the needle touch
Whispering lullabies in black underground
Ghosts of little ones never have been found
Led like infantry down the cellar stairs
And the children’s blood runs down his neck
And he wears their bones on his malformed head
The flesh is raw and stripped while his victims are alive

He keeps his oven running
His kitchen table is a slaughterhouse
He has deep thoughts for such a lack of education
He’s got a room with a big surprise
His deep wounds are from sexual frustration
His next guest is a sacrifice

A preacher in a tremble is listening upstairs
Ghosts of little girls plead out to him to care
He heard a voice, he heard a moan, he heard it in the dark
He heard footsteps of a creature coming up the cellar stairs
