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???

Mirror lyrics:

Does this mean I'll be The One next year???
Actually it's my laughter, he stole my head
I hear his laughter in the distance
Leaving me with this curse
And as he rides away
I cannot move towards the light...
Seems to be chained to the inside
The mind in my headless body
"Epilogue"
NO!
Now my life is fading away
changing
Oh it's strange how everything's
Solo: Denner
Now my life is fading away
changing
Oh it's strange how everything's
It's the key to his land
Don't you ever never take it
I see a bony hand
In this hollow grave
Now my life is fading away
changing
Oh it's strange how everything's
Will I shed a tear
Will I ever never make it
I can smell that he's near
In this hollow grave
