Alan Parsons Project – The Tell Tale Heart
You should have seen himLying alone in helpless silence in the nightYou should have seen himYou would have seen his eye reflecting in the light
So for the old manAshes to ashes, earth to earth, and dust to dustNo one will see meNo one with guilt to share, no secret soul to trust
And he won’t be found at allNot a trace to mark his fallNor a stain upon the wall
Louder and louderTil I could tell the sound was not within my earsYou should have seen meYou would have seen my eyesGrow white and cold with fear
Heard all the things in Heaven and EarthI’ve seen many things in HellBut his vulture’s eye of a cold pale blueIs the eye of the Devil himself
Take me away nowBut let the silence drown the beating of his heartI can’t go onLet me be free from wretched sea that I can not seePlease let me be free
