Lemon Demon - When He Died lyrics

When he died Turns out he left behind a mansion full of other people's skulls The odd thing is, they never found his own, when he died When he died He somehow left behind strange symbols on the floor beneath his corpse Investigators said the wood was scorched, when he died When he died they found so many scorpions inside his lungs When he died the statues of his missing children cried What was later found to be his blood When he died (On a dark and stormy night) They telephoned his wife (Who reacted with delight) But gradually her voice began to fade to nothing And the Laughing Record played The Laughing Record played When he died They found a message etched into his spine That said when he died an endless age of untold nightmares would be nigh And the blood would make the seas run red.
