Green-Wood Cemetery, also sometime spelled “Greenwood”, is mentioned in the lyrics to Type O Negative‘s songs “Dead Again” and “Creepy Green Light.” However, Peter Steele was not buried in Green-Wood Cemetery, but in St. Charles/Resurrection Cemeteries.

Lyrics Dead Again:

I’m fucking dead again
Chemical joy turning thee paranoid
Recently buried deep in Greenwood Cemetery now
I had no pulse last time I checked, trade my life for self-respect
Don’t wanna stay with my last breath

Lyrics Creepy Green Light:

On muddy ground
I’m lying drunk on her grave
Where I must wait
Until she wakes
The soil splits
Greenwood’s ground will quake beneath me
And so shall take into the earth
To the green light
