Asylum Ink

Verse 1

Pressed in dark ink

Deep inside the shadows where the madness breeds

Born from Frank

A fevered seed

Madness not of man

A plan

No cradle rocked or lullaby

Just straitjackets hanging high

Pre-Chorus

She learned to scream

Between the seam

Of things below

Where nameless gods still go

Chorus

Lori Lovecraft

Lori Lovecraft

Granddaughter of nightmares

Cousin to fear

Black ink in my blood

The bride of old ones

Verse 2

No father's name

Tentacles scrawled out in a plea

Mother's gone

She bled

Lobotomy scars on the bone

Home

Waltzing with ghouls at three

With Cthulhu for company

Schoolbooks skin-bound

A cold sound

Pre-Chorus

Chant in tongue

Always young

Sigils in the flesh

Dark and fresh

Chorus

Lori Lovecraft

Lori Lovecraft

Granddaughter of nightmares

Cousin to fear

Black ink in my blood

The bride of old ones

Lori Lovecraft

Lori Lovecraft

Bridge

Locked doors

She holds the key

Holds the key

Holds the key

Madness is the paint

Asylum walls falling down

Walls falling down

She is where the story starts

Chorus

Lori Lovecraft

Lori Lovecraft

Granddaughter of nightmares

Cousin to fear

Black ink in my blood

The bride of old ones
