Twilight Symphony Lyrics

Artist: King Diamond
Album: Them

Morning came and so did they, flying
questions from the police
I'm waiting here in an ambulance for
Dr. Landau
To return and tell me why they're
taking me so far away
"I did what I did and I'm glad I did,
'cos I could have been the...
I could have been the next in line"

Nobody found a trace of Missy
I'd be the last to tell them anyway
How could I ever ever explain

Now I hear "THEM" again, singing
Twilight symphony, twilight
I hear "THEM" again, singing
Twilight symphony, twilight

Grandma' was dead with an open neck
Blood still running from My open
mouth
I knew they would blame it, they
would blame it all on me
How could I ever ever explain

Now I hear "THEM" again, singing
Twilight symphony, twilight
I hear "THEM" again, singing
Twilight symphony, twilight

Dr. Landau returned, and I told him the
story
"Are You mad or just insane?"
I tried anyway
"You can take him away now, the boy
has lost his mind"
Oh no no

I haven't seen My Mother since they
took me away
And Dr. Landau wouldn't tell me
He wouldn't tell me anything
Oh I'm back on the outside

Time has caught up with me, and I
must leave for the old house
Yes I must leave now
Grandma'... I'm coming
I'm coming home now
I'm coming home now

I have been with King Diamond from the beginning and this song reminds me of when my girlfriend got murdered in 1989. it was something I have never gotten over.
besides this song that reminds me of that fateful day, it actually expands to several of King's songs. before she was taken away, I got her into Kings music and she loved it. to this day when I visit her grave, I bring a Boombox with me and play several songs that she enjoyed.

I know it's a stretch, but I hope she can hear it. my love goes out to her and Mr. Diamond, for your music helps me in several ways.
