Lyrics King Diamond

King Diamond

Mommy

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

Oh no... it died... oh no... it died

Deep down below, fire would not go

The crypt is still alive, listen to the child that cries

I wonder what is wrong

It's so damp... and cold... in here, could this be the home of fear

There's something in the dark, that should be left alone

As if it had a grave of it's own

[Solo: Mike]

There's a body on the floor, I hope there is no more

I think I'm stepping in blood

Too dark for me to see, a dark you only feel

Dark that always must be

I see a child... now I'm blind... where did she go? Oh no

Deep down below, fire would not go

The crypt is still alive, listen to the child that cries

Where did she go? She must have slipped into the dark again

Not too far away, I see a light

And there is Little One, standing by the wall

The lantern in her hand is lighting up the coffin on the stand

Oh...

I used to know your sister, your eternal spirit twin

Oh but Abigail was way too busy with revenge

And now you're stuck in here on your own

A lonely soul who'll never ever find a home

Oh No

She cannot find her mommy, cause mommy's in the floor

And she doesn't even know... who her mother really is... oh no

[Solo & outro solos: Andy]

Only I and a few others know who her mother really is

The Countess... The Countess... The Countess

"Mommy... Mommy..."

Oh she cannot find her mommy

"Mommy... Mommy..."

Cause she's buried in the floor

But it's NOT your mommy you're looking for

IT'S YOURSELF!!!
