Black Horsemen Lyrics - Abigail - King Diamond

So there they stood at the top of the stairs 

Miriam in the mood, Jonathan was scared 

Gazing into the dark, Jonathan saw the star 

For a second he turned his back 

And she was there like a ghost 

She him hard and clean 

To the bottom of the stairs 

"Now we're finally alone, Miriam 

Abigail is here to stay" 

The birth of Abigail would soon be realized 

The second coming of a devil in disguise 

And the moon did not shine 

It was darker than ever before 

On this sacred night 

The soul of Miriam was crying out in pain 

Remembering the day, arrival in the rain 

The pain of labor was so strong that Miriam died 

The final seeing was a pair of yellow eyes 

You can still hear her screaming 

If You're walking the stairs in July 

Riding from beyond 

The 7 Horsemen would arrive before the dawn 

Servants of the count, when Abigail was born the first time 

Oh no, they found her in the sarcophagus 

Baby Abigail was eating, Oh I cannot tell You 

"Take her, and bring her 

To the chapel in the forest 

So go now...The ceremony 

And the coffin's waiting" 

The Black Horsemen 

That's the end of another lullaby 

Time has come for me to say goodnight
