Madame M'Rachael's Grave Lyrics

Just a mention of her name
To a child would conjure fear
So, who would dare to climb the grave
When 12 o'clock was here

To climb the tomb at midnight,
As the church clock strikes the hour
Was the bravest thing you could ever do
In the eyes of a nine-year-old child

Madame M'Rachael's grave
Echoes from my past
A fear I've had since childhood
I never thought would last

Madame M'Rachael's grave
Etched within my mind
But now I see her through adult eyes
She used to haunt me all my life
Madame M'Rachael's grave

Waiting in the gloom
An erected monument to the dead
An edifice of doom

Madame M'Rachael's grave
Hides herself from the light
As she walks the churchyard all alone
In the middle of the night
