Mercyful Fate - Legend Of The Headless Rider Lyrics
the riseIm an undertakerIm a ghost in the nightIm a coffin shakerThis graveyard site is mineTake a look at the sky, see that evil eyeTonight the moon is cold as iceOh yeah...cold as ice...oh yeahTheres a black horse waitingWill he be on time?The graveyards shakingShould I turn my eyes and walk awayTake a look at the sky, see that evil eyeTonight the headless rider ridesMidnight...let the churchbell ringIts midnight, all hallows eveIts midnight, all hallows eveI see him rising from his graveI see him rising from his grave.......the chaseOn all hallows eve, never to forgetHe rides the open fieldIn search of his headMy god, hes so grotesqueShould I stay?My god, a scythe in his handNo wayHes coming...Im runningHes coming...Im runningDeep inside I know Im the oneHes coming...Im runningDeep inside I know this is wrongHelp me, Im falling downIm falling down...Im looking up...Im in a gravedoomedIn this hollow graveI can smell that hes nearWill I ever never make itWill I shed a tearOh its strange how everythingsChangingNow my life is fading awayIn this hollow graveI see a bony handDont you ever never take itIts the key to his landOh its strange how everythingsChangingNow my life is fading awayOh its strange how everythingsChangingNow my life is fading awayNo!epilogueThe mind in my headless bodySeems to be chained to the insideI cannot move towards the light...And as he rides awayLeaving me with this curseI hear his laughter in the distanceActually its my laughter, he stole my headDoes this mean Ill be the one next year? ? ?
