The Crypt - King Diamond

The moon is outside but it can’t get in

Almost dead from his nightly sin

Jonathan is deep asleep, a perfect time… to visit the keep

Down the halllway to the lair, down down the slippery stairs

Abigail is in the crypt, a lantern in her hand

The secret of the crypt

A coffin made for a child, wondering who is inside

Oh Abigail… and off comes the lid

The smell is sick

Mummified in front on its side

A name was cut deep in the lid with a knife

And it said: Abigail

A silvery necklace was 'round the mummy’s neck

It had wings and was sharpened round the edge

«What are you doing here», Henry had come in unseen

Abigail pulled on the necklace and the little mummy’s head

Was separated clean from it’s tiny neck

Then up up up, up into his throat

Twisting and turning it, oh she couldn’t stop

Brandon Henry was going down in a pool of blood

He was on the ground

There’s an eerie glow in the crypt down below

Mummified infant on its side

«Gotta go… gotta run… I’ll be back for you Little One»

In the crypt Abigail’s twin is searching for a home

Abigail’s twin is searching for her Mom

But Mommy’s in the floor and it’s made of stone

Her mommy’s in the floor and she doesn’t know

Oh she doesn’t know, she doesn’t know

Will she ever know…
