Coming Home Lyrics - Them - King Diamond

"Grandma'?" 

"I knew it was You at the door, I saw 

You from the window. Now come 

inside My dear. It's good to see You 

again, despite what You did to MY 

throat. "THEY" are waiting upstairs. 

Come. Missy is there too. She's sitting 

on Grandpa's lap. I bet You're dying for 

a cup of tea."

To whom it may concern. 

I am scared to death. 9 years ago they finally let me out, and I 

was just beginning to feel better. I am not Myself any longer. 

I guess You could not even recognize My face if You saw Me now. 

That phone call 2 hours ago has torn Me apart. It was Grandma. 

She invited Me back to the old house. I do not want to go back, 

but I must. Maybe You will understand My fear if I tell 

You what happened during My childhood. 

18 years ago I was living with My mother and 

My sister Missy in Grandma's old house. I had 

been told that Grandma was away on a long vacation, 

and that she would soon return. She did. 

I have later found out that she was actually being released 

from that same asylum. "She's insane", they said, when she 

kept on babbling about "THEM". I still cannot make up 

My mind about who really did separate Grandpa's head 

from his shoulders. You see, "THEY" were always so 

nice to Me. 

Anyway, time is short and I must leave for the old 

house. So here is what happened 18 years ago. And 

in case we never see each other again, at least You 

will know why. 

I bet we are going to have tea.
