Uriah Heep

Corridors Of Madness

Uriah Heep


I'm looking out  over the water
Feeling the cold in my bones
A terrible nightmare growing around me
I never felt so alone
I'm starting to see my reflection
A whisper of light in the sky
The dark water calle me, pulling me in
Down where the old spirits lie

I look at the moon as it flickers
Through the waves like a lost memory
I'm losing control as the spirits are laughing
Singin their dark harmony
They try everything to destroy me
They're drawing me into the game
Question or answer, will I live or die
Convincing me I am insane

(Ah ah ah)
In the corridors of madness
(Ah ah ah)
They go on and on and on
(Ah ah ah)
They say they want to take me home

They live in the world under water
Maybe we end up this way
But I'm still alive and I'm frightened to death
The fear of this watery grave
I'm reaching out into the silence
Begging for help to appear
The whisper of light that was there in the sky
Pulling me into the clear

(Ah ah ah)
In the corridors of madness
(Ah ah ah)
They go on and on and on
(Ah ah ah)
They say they want to take me home

[Solo]

So don't look out over the water
You never know what you will find
You could be saved or you could be lost
May even go out of your mind
So now when you see your reflection
As spirits are tempting you in
Calling your name like a lamb to the slaugther
Fearing the pendulum swing

(Ah ah ah)
In the corridors of madness
(Ah ah ah)
They go on and on and on
(Ah ah ah)
They say they want to take me home

(Ah ah ah)
In the corridors of madness
(Ah ah ah)
They go on and on and on
(Ah ah ah)
They say they want to take me home
