There's a horror in my soul That I want so very much to know I've learned the arts From the worst blackguards And now I'm living under the rose I want to free this devilry Hellhound running loose Hothouse phantoms thrill my mind If you only knew Oh yes, I know A place where evil grows Like monstrous orchids in thorny rows To rend and twist With horrid artifice Like Bacchus pursuing Amethyste I want to free this devilry Hellhound running loose Hothouse phantoms thrill my mind If you only knew There's a light on Half Moon Street In this house we often meet As my enemies grew bolder They moved in closer But I'm in league with something older And now it is time Alive with drugs and wine This world and all the rest I'll leave behind Their mysteries I've been told I've been brought deep into the fold Of a circle unspeakably old I want to free this devilry Hellhound running loose Hothouse phantoms thrill my mind If you only knew There's a light on Half Moon Street London house of witchery As my enemies grew bolder They moved in closer But I'm in league with something older
