Lyrics

I've been waiting for the night to show I've been waiting for it all The moon must fall The moon must fall With my lantern he will surely know Know I'm waiting at his door It falls It falls Pestilence, the virus of madness Haunting me, he cried in the dark Way below, he could not find peace there Death at club, his shadow so stark Single ray of light It shined upon the eyes so evil Too scared to take flight We both waiting on a move If only you had seen how clever I had been Assassin from the dark If only you had felt the terror he felt then Waiting on my mark As the light escaped from the lantern On his eyes, fixed deep in my head Saw my chance, I sprung on my victim Heart alive, I toppled the bed Gasping breath, the heart stopped beating I can't hear it knocking now If only you had seen how clever I had been Assassin from the dark If only you had felt the terror he felt then Waiting on my mark My mark My mark A knock on the door Three men in all The man's in the floor He took the fall They'd never know I was too clever They'd never know I led to the fall I rose from the floor The man was alive What happened before I know they hear us I killed the man that lives here I killed him this very night The telltale heart still beating Just in this wicked night
