Tonight the Circle is meeting again
Who will be the First to fall in Trance In here nobody is sensing the Rain Tonight a Spirit will glance So as they're approaching Ghostly Hour Seven People here are joining Hands They think they know the Spirit to appear Contact, the Table starts to dance Time is standing still It's a dangerous Meeting They're gonna get themselves killed Tonight the Circle is broken Forever Seven People dead within a Trance In here nobody is sensing the Rain Tonight seven Souls are reaching Hell Time was standing still The Meeting is over Their Journey is on Oh, they should have known Not to play with the Powers of Hell Some People have lost their Way Some People have lost their Mind 02. Nightmare Music by Hank Shermann Lyrics by King Diamond
Am I awake or is this just a Dream?
I had a Nightmare, some Sort of Vision I was stuck in an empty Room When the black Book appeared The Lights were dim, but the Face in the Book was in Daylight Eyes of Fire staring at me It's the Eyes of a Woman And I see, On her Spirit Steppin' out of the Book I hear her callin' for her Coven to come There's a Light in the Doorway Entering Shadows whose Number is 13 They do the Sign of the Devil's Seed I'm in the Middle of a magic Ring Somebody tell me, what's goin' on "Only we know the Secret of the Curse that you bear" Listen, they sing, the Coven sings Night after Night I hear them sing No, they're still here, I can hear them again Night after Night I have this Dream "You're only living on borrowed Time from your Fate" 03. Desecration Of Souls Music by Hank Shermann/Michael Denner Lyrics by King Diamond
Stay away white Magician, young Lovers and mourning Wife
You're not welcome on our Land So I speak for the Dead Magic Circles drawn after Midnight Around Graves to be opened He'll use the Wand to raise a Body He'll ask the Questions and he'll burn the Remains It's Desecration of Souls in their holy Lair Copulation in the Night Two Shadows upon a Grave Screams of Pleasure and Screams of Pain Young Lovers, you must be Insane It's Desecration of Souls in their holy Lair So I say again: Stay away, it's Desecration of Souls Dyin' Flowers upon the Grave Of a Husband who's lost his Maid She's there on Duty, and the Tears she cries They don't belong where the Flowers lie It's Desecration of Souls in their holy Lair So I say again: Stay away, it's Desecration of Souls 04. Night Of The Unborn Music by Hank Shermann Lyrics by King Diamond
I forbid you Entrance here, you step on hollow Ground
Don't you see this Chapel Shut up! Hold your Tongue, they must rest in Silence It's the Rebirth of the Unborn Tonight is the Night The Spirits of the Unborn will play tonight The Unborn will play tonight They will dance around the Chapel It's a Feast for the Dead They will Make a Fool of the Priest And the Dead Boy's Choir will sing A Song for the Dead to whom Life has just begun Life of the Unborn This One's for the Unborn Did you know? 13 Days have come and gone Since we had the First of June The Spirits of the Unborn will play tonight Forgive them, they didn't die 05.

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 Wagons left in the Snow Oh I must see that Lady, I have to know Gypsy Woman let me inside They say you know the Secret, Secret of Time So gaze into your Crystal and tell me All you see Gypsy Woman let me know "Oh my Son you were never Gone You are the Devil's Child, and so am I" Gypsy now I know you're not my Mother You are a Part of my Soul, it's clear for All to see Oh No No No, I Am You Gypsy You're Inside of Me 07. Welcome Princess Of Hell Music by Hank Shermann Lyrics by King Diamond
I turn off the Lights, we like Darkness
Now you call my Name, you finally came Even in the Night I see the Light shining bright I'm alone with my Friends Now I see you clear, we raise our Glasses Welcome to my House Princess of Hell Even in the Night I see the Light shining bright I'm alone with my Friends I will bring in here my Crystal Ball I will gaze, you will know what is to come I'm amazed of what I've seen tonight I won't tell a living Soul, they would not believe Welcome Princess of Hell Never will I break the Oath I gave I hail you again in Satan's Name, Princess of Hell Even in the Night I see the Light shining bright I'm alone with my friends We will be back, we will be back 08.
