A Mansion In Darkness (Reissue) - King Diamond
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 wich was to be
A house where evil ruled at night
And the shadows at the gate
They seemed to be alive
Yeah the shadows
At the gate alive
Everything inside was
Left untouched
Except for what the rats had got
And the dust of time
That showed its mark
Armed with candlelight
And open eyes
Through the dark they
Fought their way
Til every room was again lit again
And the house began to breathe
It seemed to be alive
Yeah the house
Began to breathe alive
The As candlelight
Began to fade
And jonathan said
Lets go to bed
The fireplace had
Ceased to burn burn
Both were fast asleep
Before the dawn
Dreaming dreaming
And they did not know about the shadow
Yeah the shadow on the wall
It really came alive
Yeah the shadow on the wall
Sunrise
