Madame Hecate

I'm not scared of the monster that lingers
Under the spiral stairs where he scratches and pines
But I'll scream at the memory of your fingers
You were my Hecate
Now you fly through my mind

Night falls in the courtyard
The moon is shining bright
Reflecting off the cobblestones
Reflecting off my eyes

As I look towards the window
Where that picture hangs alone
Sometimes I swear I see the eyes move
When the candle burns too long

And now I want to clean these cobwebs
That I've built around my walls
And I want to shake this melody
That both thrills and appalls

But my footsteps sound too heavy
As I walk towards the gate
No hope for me beyond
What I must love and cannot hate

I'm not scared of the monster that lingers
Under the spiral stairs where he scratches and pines
But I'll scream at the memory of your fingers
You were my Hecate
Now you fly through my mind

When I stand upon the banister
I can see into the room
When we were once together
Wrapped in our cocoon

And I remember how you looked
When you betrayed me with your touch
Like a fly inside a web
I was caught, I was caught up

I'm not scared of the monster that lingers
Under the spiral stairs where he scratches and pines
But I'll scream at the memory of your fingers
You were my Hecate
Now you fly through my mind

I would walk through any desert
I would sail on any sea
Just to see her just one more time
Just to be set free

Now I walk this house of whispers
Though I can't remember why
This is the place of no tomorrows
I can't escape from behind these eyes

I'm not scared of the monster that lingers
Under the spiral stairs where he scratches and pines
But I'll scream at the memory of your fingers
You were my Hecate
Now you fly through my mind

I'm not scared of the monster that lingers
Under the spiral stairs where he scratches and pines
But I'll scream at the memory of your fingers
Oh my sweet Hecate
You still fly through my mind
You still fly through my mind
You still fly through my mind
