The Family Ghost (4:05) Lyrics - King Diamond

The darkness came closer to home, on the following night 

And Miriam slept like a rock, when Jonathan's face went white 

The bedroom was ice cold, but the fire was burning still 

The blinding light, the family ghost, had risen again, the Ghost 

Don't be scared, don't be scared now, my friend 

I am Count De Lafey 

Let me take you to the crypt down below, where Abigail rests 

Let Miriam sleep, she never would understand 

Now come let us go, it's time to know 

Beware of the slippery stairs, you could easily fall and break your neck 

Hand me that torch, and I will lead the way to the secret in the dark 

Secret in the dark 

Take a look into the vault, the vault, the sarcophagus of a child 

Abigail has been in here for years and years, stillborn 

Born, born, born 

The spirit of Abigail is inside your wife 

And there's only one way you can stop, the rebirth of evil itself 

You must take her life, now, now, now, now, now, now
