The Tell-Tale Heart

(Verse 1) In the depths of darkness, where shadows creep, A heart beats loud, a secret to keep, With every thud, it echoes my sin, A tale of madness that lies within. (Pre-Chorus) The walls are closing, the floorboards creak, The guilt of murder, it claws and seeks, But I can't escape, I can't deny, The pounding of the heart, the reason why. (Chorus) The tell-tale heart, it drives me insane, A relentless rhythm, a haunting refrain, In the chambers of my mind, it tears me apart, For I am the keeper of the tell-tale heart. (Verse 2) I thought I could silence it, bury it deep, But it pulses on, a relentless beat, Each throb a reminder of the deed I've done, A life extinguished, a battle never won. (Pre-Chorus) The paranoia grips me, it won't let go, The truth buried beneath the floor below, But the heart won't rest, it won't be still, A symphony of madness, a bitter pill. (Chorus) The tell-tale heart, it drives me insane, A relentless rhythm, a haunting refrain, In the chambers of my mind, it tears me apart, For I am the keeper of the tell-tale heart. (BreaKDOWN) I can't escape the sound, it's all I hear, The beating of the heart, drawing near, I scream in silence, but no one hears, For the tell-tale heart, it feeds my fears. [Outro] It drives me insane!
