Music by Hank Shermann Lyrics by
King Diamond)

The Rise
Im an undertaker
Im a ghost in the night
Im a coffin shaker
This graveyard site is mine

Take a look at the sky, see that evil eye
Tonight the moon is cold as ice
Oh yeah...cold as ice...oh yeah

Theres a black horse waiting
Will HE be on time?
The graveyards shaking
Should I turn my eyes and walk away

Take a look at the sky, see that evil eye
Tonight the Headless Rider rides

Midnight...let the churchbell ring
Its midnight, All Hallows Eve
Its midnight, All Hallows Eve
I see him rising from his grave
I see him rising from his grave.......

The Chase
On All Hallows Eve, Never to forget
He rides the open field
In search of his head

My GOD, hes so grotesque
Should I stay?
My GOD, a scythe in his hand
NO WAY
Hes coming...Im running
Hes coming...Im running
Deep inside I know Im the one
Hes coming...Im running
Deep inside I know this is wrong
Help me, Im falling down

Solo: Shermann

Im falling down...
Im looking up...Im in a grave

Doomed
In this hollow grave
I can smell that hes near
Will I ever never make it
Will I shed a tear

Oh its strange how everythings
changing
Now my life is fading away

In this hollow grave
I see a bony hand
Dont you ever never take it
Its the key to his land

Oh its strange how everythings
changing
Now my life is fading away

Solo: Denner

Oh its strange how everythings
changing
Now my life is fading away

NO!

Epilogue
The mind in my headless body
Seems to be chained to the inside
I cannot move towards the light...
And as he rides away
Leaving me with this curse
I hear his laughter in the distance
Actually its my laughter, he stole my head
Does this mean Ill be The One next year
