King Diamond - The Portrait(1986)

[00:39.02] My mother was obsessed by evil jealousy
[00:44.67] She didn't want nobody to even look at molly
[00:50.99] She kept me locked up in this attic 'till I died
[00:56.58] Only 4 years old, my story left untold
[01:03.56] Oh Molly... oh Molly
[01:41.70] Mother was struck by this infallible idea
[01:47.83] If she could paint my portrait I would remain immortal
[01:53.53] And I could hang downstairs above the fireplace
[01:59.68] A little girl in lace, not a single trace of crime
[02:20.47] Each day and night she worked and autumn turned to spring
[02:37.97] For every stroke she painted a little life was ended
[02:44.09] At last I felt so weak I could not even speak
[02:49.76] But in that fatal portrait my spirit came to life again
[02:59.49] Oh Molly
[03:41.51] That night i made the portrait speak in evil tongue
[04:19.69] You're gonna go beyond too, may pain and death bestow you
[04:25.94] She grabbed a book and spoke aloud an ancient rhyme
[04:31.63] While she burned the portrait in the candle of fate
[04:43.99] Oh Molly
[05:03.58] I've gotta se ma.
