Lyrics King Diamond

King Diamond

Waiting

Just after midnight, they are bringing me my pills

Just after midnight, lights are out at Black Hill

But they don't know me, they don't know me at all

Tonight pills will be chills will be kills

Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night

Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore

If I don't take my medication, they will all be here

But I think I fooled them, I think I'm in the clear

Nursie doesn't know this is her last night

She even brought the key that's gonna set me free

Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night

Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore

Tonight I'm taking her instead

My hands are so much stronger than her

Itsy-bitsy little head

Empty eyes are staring at the wall

I cannot hear her breathing anymore

I'm looking for the key in her hand

That bluish little hand

Running through the empty halls of this forgotten place

Unlocking doors that never opens

But now I've got the key, the key to freedom

And I'm unlocking doors that never should be opened

Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night

Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore

6, 6, 6 miles I've been running through the woods

6, 6, 6 miles and now before me, the cemetery gates

I climb the gate between life and death

I walk upon the moonlit graves

I'm home
