Lyrics - Sending To Dead by King Diamond

Monday evening
Evening, the sun is setting, silence is all you hear
David, getting really sick he is sweating like a pig
The fever's got him now
And
Sarah's father dear, the morning snack has put him on his back
He should have stayed in bed..oh why didn't he?...
The sun is setting, silence is all you hear
Sarah: "
Salem, what's going on?"
Salem: "
Let me tell you a story
Madame, a secret about your land
The reason... for all madness
Let me tell you a story
Madame, the burial ground on your land
Ia a secret voodoo stand
If you ever destroy this sacred place
Legend says that you will die, and never find your rest
I'm telling the truth...
Oh yes
I am
If the living can't feed the dead, then the dead will come for you
Sarah: "
You better hold your tongue now
Salem
Cause
I don't believe in ghosts"
There is only one thing left to do now
And that is "
Sending of
Dead"
The four shadows are meeting again
At the cemetery gates, darkness is a friend
Midnight will soon be here
Everything should be ready by now...for "
Sending of
Dead"
Place the image of
Saint
Expedit
Upside down and around
I hear
Doctor le
Croix speaking"
Let the ritual begin""
Almight
God, father of mine, come for
Sarah
Lafayette
That she may be "
Disappeared", forever lost
Saint
Expedit, you are a saint and
I'm a sinner
I send you to find...
Sarah
Lafayette
Oh, ride me of her head and rid me of her soul
Rid me of all her thoughts, rid me of her memory
For this curse to work,
Baron
Samedi,
Samedi,
Samedi
Send your blessing, so
Sarah may be gone"
As if he was sent from the sky,
Baron
Samedi creeps inside
The
Doctor's body..speaking to
Salem
Samedi:"
You must bring me a sacrifice
You must come back before midnight
Kneel before my cross"...
Salem is here
He takes a handful of soil from each grave
Of the dead he wants to send..into
Sarah
Now quick quick run back to the
House
The soil must lie where sarah sleeps
