Riding up the alley in the rain
No lights to show the way
How could this ever be their home?

Through the darkness you could only see
A giant shadow that dwells to be
A house where evil rules at night

A Secret
(Diamond/LaRocque)

Sunday noon

In the "Loa" mansion the Lafayettes are meeting
There's a crisis they must resolve
Twice since they moved into this house

[Music by King Diamond]

My Mother is entering My dream now
She's wearing a wedding dress
Something's wrong with the way she walks the aisle
I think it's her legs

Suddenly there is someone else beside her

"Abigail!
I know you're in control of her brain, Abigail!
And I know that you're the one that's speaking through her
Abigail!"

"Miriam, can you hear me?"

"I am alive inside your wife

Missy I miss You so. Oh little Sister
I wish You'd come back to Me and sit by My side
We'd laugh and we'd play again, if only You'll try
You know "THEY" would show the way
From the other side
Rise from Your grave little Sister
Rise...Rise...Rise My friends...Rise
Spirits rising from their grave

Black Devil
(Diamond/Diamond)

There he was that little man, sitting by the altar... Black Devil
Carved in stone so dark and could... Black Devil
Help me, Help me, cause I don't know what's going on

It was the early morning of the seventh day

Black Hill Sanitarium
(Music: La Rocque / Lyrics: Diamond)

I have been in here for way too long
And as I walk the halls at night
I see the other inmates hiding from my eyes

This is for the mentally ill

[Solo theme : Andy]

I need light, I need light to find my way around this house
I'm turning on the chandelier
Nice bright light for me to see

Little footsteps coming from the hallway

Blue Eyes
[Diamond/ Diamond]

I open my eyes...I can barely see
I got a feeling inside
No one's here but me, no one's here but me...Ohhh

I'm stone cold...I must be lying on a floor

Bye, Bye Missy

Tea time Monday night, I was waiting passing time
Then from the hallway, I saw Mother in her nightgown

Swaying up the stairs, up the stairs, it seemed so unreal
I knew Grandma' had sent "THEM" again, the invisible friends

Down into the dark I go, armed with just a candle and then my soul
Cryptic messages written on the floor
Rats are nibbling at my feet, I send one off to nevermore

Too much darkness, spiders on my eyes
Webs are hanging from the thighs, the fatter ones must die
I see shadows walking straight and tall
I don't know how they move, dancing on the walls

"Come they told me
A newborn King to see
Our finest gifts we bring
To lay before the King...Oh when we come"

It's Christmas again.. it will never be the same
It's Christmas again, I know
There's only sadness in my soul

Cold and wet, I'm sitting on my bed... Ah

Colder and colder
The candles burning in my room are getting weaker
Darker and darker
The shadows dancing on the wall are growing taller

Come come to the sabbath, down by the
Ruined bridge
Witches and demons are coming
Just follow the magic call
Come come to the sabbath, down by the
Ruined bridge
Later on the master will join us
Called from the heart of hell

Coming Home

"Grandma'?"

"I knew it was You at the door, I saw You from the window. Now come inside My dear. It's good to see You again, despite what You did to MY throat. "THEY" are waiting upstairs. Come. Missy is there too. She's sitting on Grandpa's lap. I bet You're dying for a cup of tea."

To whom it may concern.

Darkness
(Diamond/LaRocque)

For 13 days... we have trained and trained
We're learning to walk again, we're learning to stretch our skin

Every time THEY bring us back to life
Little jars come down from the shelves

Lucy, you stay here...the tomb is warm
Why don't you play with the dools...
The dolls on the wall

I am not the guy I used to be,
not since he put me away
I left half my brain behind, back in that crazy place
Does that mean...that I am insane

Dreams
(Music & Lyrics by King Diamond)

The witching hour has arrived here too soon
I know that all my dreams are inside this room
Oh yeah, it's all in this tune

Dreams in the night, falling like rain

Dressed In White
(Music & Lyrics: King Diamond)

Theme: Mike

She's Wearing White Again But Colours Always Betray
Don't Look Into Her Eyes, There's An Evil Darkness Inside

Eastmann's Cure
(Music & Lyrics by King Diamond)

It was in the local paper:
"We will cure your every phobia
At Devil Lake Sanitarium
We will make you feel you're right at home"

The shadows are thick and Old
I'm searching the dark for my love
Behind the Theater of Puppet Shows
I find the stairs to the Cellar below

Hiding where the shadows rule
A door opens below
The Moon is high above

A new chaplain has arrived
Madeleine and a few other nuns
At the convent will meet him tonight

Father Picard:

"Welcome to my quarters!
Do come inside

From The Other Side
(Music & Lyrics by King Diamond)

I don't know if I'm dead or alive
All I know is I'm running out of time
Oh, I'm leaving my body... Oh, leaving it behind

From the other side, looking down I know that it's me

Funeral
(Diamond)

"We are gathered here tonight,
to lay to rest
Abigail LaFey,
whom we now know
was first born dead

"Give me your soul, give me your soul for the dead"
I think I know that little girl, I wonder where I've seen her before
In a cellar down below, I see the little girl playing with a boy
They're having fun

In comes Daddy... He's in a rage
Screaming and yelling... He's not very nice
Cold as ice, an axe in his hand

This magic Winter Night I see a Light
Again I hear that Tune, some Sort of Croon
Oh No No No, Oh My Brain

I see them Gypsy Waggons left in the
Snow
Oh I must see that Lady, I have to know

Oh It's Halloween
Every Night To Me Is Halloween
Like An Ancient Scene
You Know Just What I Mean
Halloween You Are My Pride
Halloween Not Just A Dream
The Moon Is Full, Another Perfect Day Has Begun
Like A Demon's Eye, That Devil's Eye

I'm in a cold and lonely tomb
Surrounded by darkness in my newfound home
I'm not alone, anymore, alone, anymore
I'm looking back at yesterday
I do remember my escape, and what I had to do
Have to do, don't you see, don't you see

Heads on the wall...I'm looking at

Once inside, everything would change before my eyes
No more decay
Glorious beauty had taken it's place
But in horror... I watched as the wolf... began it's skin to shed
I grabbed a silver crucifix expecting evil to be next
To the floor it fell, the crucifix, the wolf was no more a beast
Instead a lady only dreams can create
Creeping deep into the heart I never had

I Am
(Music & Lyrics: Diamond)

Back... in the tomb, Lucy is sitting on the floor
I... am, I am standing by the door
The door to freedom... the door that I shut so close
And as I take another look at my mind
I seem to think the sun has arrived... No

Killer
(Music by La Rocque, Lyrics by King Diamond)

At midnight, an hour from now... they're gonna flick the switch
Down the Hall, beyond the iron door... they're gonna end my life
I will see you all in Hell, isn't that where we all must go?
I will not tell you what I did... It doesn't matter now
I will not tell you how weird it is

Lies
(Music by Kind Diamond)

Yesterday I spent an hour
A full hour in therapy
My favourite Doctor Landau
My God I hate his breath

LIttle One
[Diamond/Diamond]

"Mommy... mommy... mommy... mommy"

[Solo: Mike]

Later that Night in her Room,Abigail was drifting off to sleep.

Same old wall, still hanging tall
Same old nail... through my throat
Eighteen years came along
And this time I never
I never saw my Love

I'm going insane
THEY sold me to this little shop

"LOA" House

1932, North of Baton Rouge
Louisiana nights are darker than before
Along the Mississippi, that is where it is
The old colonial house, a mansion if you will
White as snow, the mansion still seems to have its glow
And when the moon is full and white

Winter has gone
Winter has come
Heaven’s awaiting in time
The sun, it would shine
It’s almost time
Being left out in the snow

I return to the mirror

Lucy Forever
(Music: La Rocque / Lyrics: Diamond)

I leave it up to me girl, You tell me when and I'll act

By the first light of dawn, Daddy will be on his way
By the first light of dawn, No more Daddy, I say

Solo: Mike

When nightfall comes around and the light of day is gone
The dark closes in as the last candle burns out
It's time to send off your mind on a trip
Into the land of dreams and mist

Is something wrong

Magic
[La Rocque/ Diamond]

In the darkness...after the show
Outside the Theater, the air is damp and cold
All the people.. heading for home
They don't believe, that what they saw was MAGIC

Mansion in Sorrow, mansion in the dark
Maybe tomorrow the Devil's mark

The gates were locked from the inside
And Abigail was sure to die
Then Little One went straight through her body
And the gates, they opened wide
And Little One went up the stairs to the old oak door

Meet Me At Midnight
(Music: La Rocque / Lyrics: Diamond)

Yesterday as I finished the last of the seven graves
I went to call McKenzie
I woke him up in the middle of the night
You should have heard me... SURPRISE!

Midnight
[Diamond/ Diamond]

Midnight...I see the snow that's falling
Midnight...Still hanging on this wall

I'm thinking back in time
To when there was still a life

My feelings are burning with fear
I know someone's in here, I just can't see

I silently follow the sound
Little footsteps are moving in the hall
With the candle still in my hand
I take a look at the mirror on the wall

Mommy
[Diamond/Diamond]

You could see the fire burn, you could see the colours turn
From black to no return
The night began to cry, rain from the sky
As the mansion died

Tonight would be the last night that
we had our tea
That bloody tea, which sent us into
ecstasy
Yesterday Mother complained, feeling
dizzy, all in pain

Mother's getting weaker, looking

Oh... You gotta move on now
I can see... I can feel... The tears in your eyes
The tears that you cry... you gotta move on now
Let me wipe those tears from your eyes

"If I could only take his place... On the other side
I can see... I can feel... The tears in his eyes
The tears that he cries

Time is never ever standing still, except on Never Ending Hill.
From here you can see Devil Lake
The velvet sunset is never too late

Never Ending Hill is where I live, The Old Oak Tree is standing still.
Can you hear the birds singing in the trees?
Can you hear the wind shaking all the leaves?

No More Me
[Diamond - Thompson/ Diamond]

Why am I strapped to this hospital bed?

"First your eyes, then your skin
We will make you feel.. born again.. No More Me my friend"

Christmas time is here again
Santa needs a helping hand
We cannot find his evil sheet
To draw his laying for the night
So all the waiting christmas trees
Gonna hear their master sing....

There's no presents, Not this Christmas

Nobody's inside the church but the bell is ringing
For no reason the floweres are dying

Oh, Deadly Omens
Oh, Deadly Omens

Inside the mansion the air is unbearable, a rotten smell
In the dinning room the table is set for 3

One Down, Two To Go

Monday morning

The sun has risen, just above the trees
The birds are singing, it's just like a dream
What a perfect morning it... could have been
Salem's in the kitchen, and that's a sin

Out From The Asylum

Look, the old bitch is back - yeah, finally we'll get some company again the attic room has been locked up for far too long - just like the old bitch herself - she's on time though - why that silly wheelchair? Oh she's pretending as always - but she does make a good cup of tea.

"Oh My God she's here. Missy, listen to what Mother says: Now You be good to Grandma; and remember she's been away on a long vacation. That goes for You too King. And stop playing that thing. Answer the door"

Phone Call

Grandma: Hello.... Hello King!
King: Who's this?
Grandma: It's your grandmother...
King: You're dead!!
Grandma: In a way yes, now listen... Are you still there?
King: I'm still here grandma...

At midnight that same night, the Lafaettes were slipping
At midnight that same night, there is a shadow creepeng

Salem is moving without a sound
Salem is moving...moving, moving to the burial ground

So hot and so quiet, only the leaves are shaking
By one of the graves, Doctor le Croix is waiting

I'm dressed in black, with my stick and hat
So this is the end, where it all will begin

Shapes Of Black on the floor
Shapes Of Black behind every door

They keep sucking on the light until
There is no more light to find in here

The night is rising my eyes.
Even in the dark I know I'm alive.
I am burning for you, yeah you know its true.
Voices are calling in the night.
Breaking the changing sleep of night.
I see your face I can't deny it.
Darkness you are a holy shrine.
The night, awake us tonight.

Six Feet Under
(Music by La Rocque/Lyrics by King Diamond)

My family just couldn't wait, I should have seen it coming
What a nice conspiracy, what a nice suprise
But now it's all too late
I am six feet under, It's so very hard to breath
My family, they put me here in a coffin made of glass

Sleep Tight Little Baby

(Diamond)

Lucy, it's time for bed now and you need your rest
So lie down in your coffin, dear, and sleep tight
I'll wake you when Daddy's here, alright?
No! No, don't! Don't cry, little girl!

[Music by Andy LaRocque]

I cannot sleep at night
That's what the day is for anyway

And as the clock strikes midnight
I hear "THEM" dancing at the graves
singing to My mind

I am sitting in the Dark, I'm with my Love
We are looking into each other's eyes
I know if THEY take her away, there is no life
Take her away and I die

"Tell me this is not goodbye"
Do you remember the Butterfly
"It made me cry"

Spare This Life
[Diamond/Diamond]

"I, O'Brian of the Black Horsemen, forbid this sacrilege
You all know that this Demon Child has Abigail's spirit
Inside
But what you don't know is
That she is the reincarnation of my stillborn half-sister

Spider's Lullabye

In a little cottage, in the country side
Lives a man called Harry, and he is losing his mind
Listen.......... Hear the spider's lullabye
It's really sad for Harry, he finds a spider scary
Even the smallest species, will make him feel uneasy
Oh, they live in every corner

Jonathan is dead
And Abigail is watching his wheelchair burn
The flames lick the wooden floor
Spreading to the curtains, and then the draperies on the wall
Higher and higher they go

"I am the fire, I'm eating everything
I'll bring this mansion down, through me they all must come"

The 7th Day Of July 1777
(Diamond/LaRocque)

Count de LaFey
uncovered his cheating Wife
9 months of loving and sharing
Oh it was a bastard child
How could he have been so blind

I kind of knew that she would be
waiting for me in her room
With a sick smile she told me not to
be a fool
Her eyes went hard, staring right into
My brain
But I convinced her that I was feeling
real fine

The Crypt
[Diamond/Diamond]

The moon is outside but it can't get in
Almost dead from his nightly sin
Jonathan is deep asleep, a perfect time... to visit the heep

Down the halllway to the lair, down down the slippery stairs

The Curse
Music by: King Diamond

I know what You're thinking. I can see through you brain
I know what You're doing, even though I'm far away

The power I get from the chain is mine
Only I can use it

The darkness came closer to home on the following night,
And Miriam slept like a rock when Jonathan's face went white....
The bedroom was ice cold,
But the fire was burning still.
The blinding light!
The Family Ghost had risen again...The Ghost!
"Don't be scared. Don't be scared now, my friend.
I am Count de la Fey.

I'm in the hallway on the floor, I cannot stand the Dark no more
Oh I'm lighting candles everywhere
I try to keep the darkness out of here

Inside my mind nightmares are turning real
Oh inside my mind I can't control how I feel

Now I'm on the second floor, I cannot stand the Dark no more

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

Guitar solo: Pete, Guitar solo: Andy
Late that night I awoke from My sleep
Hearing unknown voices laughing insane
Grandma' was one, Oh it's coming from the room next to mine

It's Grandma' room... the invisible guests

Guitar solo: Pete

The Poltergeist

Some would say there is trouble in my home
Even when I am alone
Some would say there is always someone home
Even though I might be gone
Speak to me my friend, I know you're there
Speak to me my friend... speak to me... SPEAK TO ME!

The Spirit Of The Candle:

"My mother was obsessed by evil jealousy
She didn't want nobody to even look at Molly
She kept me locked up in this attic 'till I died
Only four years old, my story left untold"

Oh, Molly!

On the very next morning
When the mist was eaten away by the sun
Miriam grew hour by hour and
Jonathan he cried
He knew the ghost had been telling the truth
So this was 9
The pregnancy would not last overnight

Night time in Budapest
So many people are waiting in line
Darkness without a glow
What a night to be watching a Christmas show

What a magical mystery feeling
Dancing at the end of their silvery strings
Almost human in size

The Ritual

[La Rocque/ Diamond]

As I look into the eyes of Victoria
Enter the Puppet Master and his wife
I can't speak...I'm in shock...

The Spider's Lullabye
(Music & Lyrics by King Diamond)

In a little cottage in the countryside
Lives a man named Harry
And he is losing his mind

Listen... Hear the Spider's Lullaby

I'd been riding hard most of the night,
wooded ravines on a mountain side
My horse was getting tired... and so was I
Up there the moon was full, down here darkness ruled
The trees were so much higher than they were meant to be
In what is known as "The Devil's Hide"
I knew I was not alone, and it was not that crazy moon above
Oh no... I could feel the trees have eyes

Up From The Grave

[Music & Lyrics: Diamond]

As I look him deep in the eyes...I see only darkness
I must have knocked him out...good
I kind of like that...I must go

A little later in the day Mother and the Doctor went away
They left me lying on the floor
Heading for local church, not a trace of guilt in their eyes
The reverend Sammael, the venom of GOD himself
And so easy to convert

Conspiracy, I'm being victimized again

Saturday evening

A narrow path runs along the river
From the burial ground you might see it
Leading to a temple of secrets
Where they meet once a week...to dance and feast

Lula is dancing to the voodoo drums

Grandma, welcome home!
You have been gone for far too long
Oh, is this a dream? Are you really back?

Let me help you out of the chair, grandma
Let me touch you, let me feel

Grandma, take a look!
