Mercyful Fate - Legend Of The Headless Rider

[Music by Hank Shermann Lyrics by King Diamond] ["The Rise"] I'm an undertaker I'm a ghost in the night I'm a coffin shaker This graveyard site is mine Take a look at the sky, see that evil eye Tonight the moon is cold as ice Oh yeah... cold as ice... oh yeah There's a black horse waiting Will HE be on time? The graveyard's shaking Should I turn my eyes and walk away Take a look at the sky, see that evil eye Tonight the Headless Rider rides Midnight... let the churchbell ring It's midnight, All Hallows Eve It's midnight, All Hallows Eve I see him rising from his grave I see him rising from his grave....... ["The Chase"] On All Hallows Eve, Never to forget He rides the open field In search of his head My GOD, he's so grotesque Should I stay? My GOD, a scythe in his hand NO WAY He's coming... I'm running He's coming... I'm running Deep inside I know I'm the one He's coming... I'm running Deep inside I know this is wrong Help me, I'm falling down [Solo: Shermann] I'm falling down... I'm looking up... I'm in a grave ["Doomed"] In this hollow grave I can smell that he's near Will I ever never make it Will I shed a tear Oh it's strange how everything's changing Now my life is fading away In this hollow grave I see a bony hand Don't you ever never take it It's the key to his land Oh it's strange how everything's changing Now my life is fading away [Solo: Denner] Oh it's strange how everything's changing Now my life is fading away NO! ["Epilogue"] The mind in my headless body Seems to be chained to the inside I cannot move towards the light... And as he rides away Leaving me with this curse I hear his laughter in the distance Actually it's my laughter, he stole my head Does this mean I'll be The One next year???
