King Diamond - The Candle (D Standard Tuning)

Opening track on the "Fatal Portrait" album, pitched down a full step.

(Music & Lyrics by Kim Bendix Petersen)

"7 Years Have Gone, It Can No Longer Be Left Undone...
The Candle Must Burn Again -
And Pain Must Follow the Unholy Flame...
So Burn... Burn... Burn...
And Free the Spirit From Its Chain!"

Here I Am -
Blinded Again By That Flame...
In Every Candle That I Burn -
Burn!
I See That Same Face Return...
It Returns!

Eyes In Pain, My Little Queen...
Are You A Dream?
In Every Candle That I Burn...
Burn!
I See That Same Face Return...
It Returns!

(Lead - Denner)

Time Has Come For You To Tell The Truth -
What Shall I Do?
Tears Are Running From Her Eyes -
If She Could Only Tell Me Why...
You Don't Tell Me Why!

(Lead - Denner)

The Jonah... The Jonah...

In Twisted Key -
She Speaks A Word To Me...
And Then I See,
Her Face Falling Apart...
The Word "Jonah" Is Her Mark -
She's Branded!

(Lead - LaRocque)
