Play Riff 4 "I feel her hands..."
Play Riff 5 "... BLOOD!"
The girl in the bloody dress, appearing right before my eyes
The girl in the bloody dress, crossing over from the other side
I see the moon in the black of night
I see her dirty face, oh
The little girl in the bloody dress closer and closer
I feel her eyes in my soul
Looking around seeing all I have done
All I have done with my life
The girl in the bloody dress, I know why shes here tonight
The girl in the bloody dress, looking for
Something deep inside my mind
I see the moon in the black of night
I see her dirty face, oh
The little girl in the bloody dress closer and closer
I feel her eyes in my soul
Looking around seeing all that I have done
All I have done with my life
Do not be afraid there wont be any
pain, I Need your soul
No no no, my soul is full of SIN
The girl in the bloody dress, shes hiding her hands in the dark
The girl in the bloody dress, carrying the Devils mark
I see the moon in the black of night
I see her dirty face, oh
The little girl in the bloody dress closer and closer
I feel her hands on my own
Holding them down, they are so full of blood
Her brothers blood
And my soul is no good at all, you got to move on now
You gotta move on before the dawn is here
I feel her hands on my own
Holding them down, they are so full of blood
Her brothers blood Red
I know I let my brother down, to Hell He must go
No no no You still have time Tick Tock
