meniac - pillowpeople lyrics

Loading...

true! — nervous — very, very dreadfully nervous i had been and am; but why will you say that i am mad?

upon the eighth night i was more than usually cautious in opening the door!

i had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and you sprang up in bed, crying out — “who’s there?”

presently i heard a slight groan, and i knew it was the groan of mortal terror

with a loud “hawh,” i threw open the lantern and leaped into the room. you shrieked once — once only. in an instant i dragged him to the floor, and pulled the heavy bed over you!

for many minutes, the heart beat on with a m+ffled sound. this, however, did not vex me; it would not be heard through the wall!

the night waned, and i worked hastily, but in silence. first of all i dismembered the corpse. i bite off the head and the arms and the legs

i then took up three planks from the flooring of the chamber, and deposited all between the scantlings

there was nothing to wash out ++no stain of any kind ++no blood+spot whatever. i had been too wary for that. a tub had caught all ++hawh! hawh!

“villains!” i shrieked, “dissemble no more! i admit the deed! ++tear up the planks! here, here! ++it is the beating of your hideous heart! hawh”
