Lyrics
(Music & lyrics: king diamond)
The spirit of the candle:
Theme: mike "My mother was obsessed by evil jealousy She didn't want nobody to even look at molly She kept me locked up in this attic 'till I died Only 4 years old, my story left untold" Oh molly...oh molly
"Mother was struck by this infallible idea If she could paint my portrait I would remain immortal And I could hang downstairs above the fireplace A little girl in lace, not a single trace of crime" Solo: andy "Each day and night she worked and autumn turned to spring For every stroke she painted a little life was ended At last I felt so weak I could not even speak But in that fatal portrait my spirit came to lfe again"
Oh molly Solo: mike - theme: mike "That night I made the portrait speak in evil tongue: You're gonna go beyond too, may pain and death bestow you She grabbed a book and spoke aloud an ancient rhyme While she burned the portrait in the candle of fate" Oh molly
"I've gotta se ma"
