Cryptopsy - The Golden Square Mile lyrics

rate me

Prominent local aristocratsPainted red throughout historyA fortune born out of sugarLed the family to the social summitThe daughter of Montreal's fourth mayorLaid silently at rest in her bedAs her son of twenty four yearsStudied mercilessly in the adjacent roomAs night settled darkness fell upon the Square Mile MansionDelirious thanks to her pain medicationAda Maria Mill RepathUnlocked the top drawer of her nightstandAnd removed from it a fevered solutionBut her flimsy faint grip allowed it to fallClattering to the floorOnce Clifford's focus was interruptedHe headed out in search of the racketBut when he entered his Mother's roomIt was already splattered with her blood brains and bonesThe aspiring med student resolved to seal his own fortune as wellThe pressures of life had completely crippled himThree days later they were already both six feet belowRotting slowly as the populous' interestTook flight as the rumours grew so did the mystery of it allSadly Sherbrooke Street was never quite the sameThe Golden Square Mile was forever taintedThe gloom that engulfed their mansionStill remains present today
