A Mansion In Darkness

Riding up the alley in the rain

No lights to show the way

How could this ever be their home?

Through the darkness you could only see

A giant shadow wich was to be

A house where evil ruled at night



And the shadows at the gate

They seemed to be alive

Yeah the shadows at the gate

Alive!



Everything inside was left untouched

Except for what the rats had got

And the dust of time that showed its mark

Armed with candlelight and open eyes

Through the dark they fought their way

'Til every room was lit again



And the house began to breathe

It seemed to be alive

Yeah the house began to breathe

Alive!



As the candlelight began to fade

And Jonathan said: "Let's go to bed"

The fireplace had ceased to burn

Both were fast asleep before the dawn

Dreaming, dreaming

And they did not know about the shadow



Yeah the shadow on the wall

It really came alive

Yeah the shadow on the wall

Sunrise!
