01. At The Graves

Music by King Diamond
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
Burning shadows in the dead of night
Icy fingers all over my hand
Try to make me understand
"finally we have returned... All of us"

Missy is that you, come closer
Spirits rising from their grave
Everywhere that ghostly stare
Icy fingers all over my hand
Lead me back to where she stands
"they" are back to share my life... "they" are back

Missy come, come with me, there are things i must know
How did you get here, where's the door to the other side
Missy: "beyond the graves lies the gate
The gate that leads to the dead
We have to leave before the dawn
If not by the sun we will burn"

Spirits rising from their grave
Soon the dawn will chase the dark away
Icy fingers all over my hand
Lead me back to where "they" stand
Am i glad you have returned... All of you

Do you remember when grandmother said she heard "them" sing
I've heard "them" too and i really wish i could hear "them" again
Missy: "in your mind you'll hear "them" sing
Every night at the graves
We have to leave before the dawn
If not by the sun we will burn
Now sing"

Show your powers onto me

02. Sleepless Nights

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
Killing the pain... Sleepless nights... Sleepless nights

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

And as the clock strikes midnight
Only "they" can let us meet
Even though she's dead now
I gotta see her again... Sleepless nights... Sleepless nights

I cannot sleep at night
I will do anything to see missy again

"then let us make you an eternal deal
You will attend to the graves
You'll give us the house back and keep in mind
That we only come here at night".

So we made the deal under the starry night and
"Amon" belongs to "them" now...
I feel the dawn coming my way

And as the sun breaks up the dark
I can't hear "them" dance no more
There's no voices
Killing the pain... Pain... Pain

03. 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

He asked me questions
That kind of fool deserves a lie
I gave him answers
The kind of answers Doctor like
Yes, I gave him a bunch of lies

I told him all My nightmares
Were dead and gone
"These days I sleep like a baby
And there never ever was a "THEM"

He asked me questions
That kind of fool deserves a lie
I gave him answers
The kind of answers Doctors like

The Doctor looked at My eyes
Landau: "No trace of insanity
Maybe the time is right now
To have a visit from the family
I'm thinking of Your Mother
What does My little patient say?"

I should have taken his stethoscope
And then forced it down his throat
My Mother was at stake
So I behaved

That night I cleaned the entire house
For everything but the memories
No dust, no tea, ah stupid me
I even took the axe away
The sun is up and it's time for bed

I'm so tired
I can't wait no more

04. A Visit From The Dead

Music by Andy LaRocque
It must be summer the sky is clear
The garden is so beautiful
All the flowers and all the trees
Make Me feel like they're inside of Me
I'm holding My sister's hand
While we're playing in the sand
It's all but a dream

My bed is moving, I cannot see a thing
I am in total darkness, someone is calling
I can feel the chill, it's all around Me
I know it's not a dream, No no no

Someone is in My room
Standing at the end of My bed
Must be a visit from the dead
Must be a visit from the dead

Now I see her figure, it's just a little child
And there's no reflection, she's in the mirror
Could it really be, has she returned?
My little sister

"King beware... something bad is coming Your way...
King beware"
Must be a visit from the dead
Must be a visit from the dead
Missy will You tell Me
You know we don't have no secrets
"Just beware"

Must be a visit from the dead
Must be a visit from the dead
You've to to tell Me Missy
Come on now, spit out little girl

"I will send You a dream..."

05. The Wedding Dream

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
That man I recognize
The Doctor intends to marry Mother
It's got to be stopped

Now what have I done
My Mother's on the floor and the Doctor's gone
Everything is wrong
And as I keep the axe I wonder what's to come

I'm caught within a dream there's no way out
I can't escape
If only I could see the light of day
I might escape the dream
The wedding dream... Oh the dream

Now everything turns to darkness
Deep within I feel like I'm going blind
There is a light at the end of this starless nightmare
Someone's calling, guiding me back inside... The dream... No

Get away from him Mother
You better stop kissing, 'cause he's an enemy
Take at look at his hand
He's got the key to my house, the Doctor is the devil

I'm caught within a dream there's no way out
I can't escape
If only I could see the light of day
I might escape the dream
The wedding dream... Oh the dream

Dream... the wedding dream... Oh the dream

Now everything turns to darkness
Deep within I feel like I'm going blind
There is a light at the end of this starless nightmare
Someone's screaming: "Help me please" And it's Me

At sunrise I woke up in a sweat
The nightmare was gone
The dream I was sent is fading slowly
I do not understand

06. "Amon" Belongs To "Them"

Music by Andy LaRocque and King Diamond
Today My Mother will return to My house
And all the things I've done
I've done to make her feel at home again

Oh.. it's all part of an act
She can stay as long as I keep the pact

There's someone ringing at My front door bell
I see My Mother there
Standing with the man I wanna send to hell

Mother: "Oh King, see who came along"

Ma, You don't understand
It's all part of the deal
There's no way I can let him inside
You see "AMON" belongs to "THEM"

Doctor: "You go ahead and have a talk with the boy My dear"
You better bring this along
Something might go wrong inside"

Come on Mother let me show You the house
Come on Mother there's a lot to discuss

Mother: "Oh King, please let him in"

Ma, You don't understand
It's all part of the deal
There's no way I can let him inside
You see "AMON" belongs to "THEM"

Now let Me tell You what I've seen in the house lately
I've seen Your daughter here
Coming and going when the dark is near

You must never ever tell anyone what I've told
I have hear "THEM" singing too
Hey Mother what's that for?

Oh I feel the needle piercing My skin
And I'm falling, Yes I'm falling down...

07. Something Weird

Music by Andy LaRocque
[Instrumental]

08. Victimized

Music by Andy LaRocque
A little later in the day Mother and the Doctor went away
They left me lying on the floor
Heading for local church, no a trace of guilt in their eyes
The reverend Samael, the venom of GOD himself
And so easy to convert

Conspiracy, I'm being victimized again

Knocking at the preacher's door
None of them were ever here before
Samael, GOD in his eyes, leads them into the silent room
Oh such a holy gloom

Doctor: "Priest, do You remember King, the loony one
The one who killed his Grandma' up on the hill?"
Priest: "Yes I do"

Conspiracy

Doctor: "Now he's back, the loony one"

Talking to the preacher for a while
The Doctor turned him into a child
Samael, GOD in his eyes, swallowed everything the Doctor said
Oh in the gloom of the night

Priest: "From what You tell Me we cannot save him
It could be Satan himself or some evil demon
Let us not waste any time, the demon might twist our minds
We must go and do what must be done"

Conspiracy, I am being victimized again... victimized

So they left the church, conspiracy of the cursed
Through the dark and the rain, the priest was mildly insane
A crucifix in his hand... Oh no...

Doctor: "Soon the house belongs to us My dear
And King will be gone forever, isn't it just heaven?"

09. Let It Be Done

Music by King Diamond
Doctor: "Who's gonna set fire to the coffin?"

Priest: "I think You and Your wife to be should do it together, while I keep
the demon inside with My crucifix"

Doctor: "So it's into the coffin, use the torch and then we put the remains
into his sister's grave, right?"

Priest: "Yes, let it be done"

10. Cremation

Music by King Diamond
Whenever the dark is near
I will return from the grave
To haunt You... Godforsaken whore
