King Diamond (Band)
Blood to Walk
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Sitting in the cellar
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Watching all the others
It was only yesterday, needles in my skin
They turned my last remains into this puppet thing
[Chorus]
Blood to walk, blood to see
Blood to walk again and blood to be
[Verse 2]
I can see, but I cannot move at all
Yet, I have feelings, I know it's very strange
[Chorus]
Blood to walk, blood to see
Blood to walk again and blood to be
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I'm on my shelf
Eternal eyes, they never sleep
I take a look and in the dark I see Victoria
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
[Bridge 1]
There is no mistake, that is my beloved
Sitting on her shelf, alone and so dead
[Guitar Solo: Mike Wead]
[Bridge 2]
There's a light outside the door
Mommy and daddy are back for more
"Let's play"
[Bridge 3]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
"Hello all my children"
Oh-oh, oh-oh
'In blood, I will teach you"
[Guitar Solos: Mike Wead / Andy LaRocque]
[Verse 4]
They take Victoria down from her shelf
They sit her on the floor and me in front of her
[Chorus]
Blood to walk, blood to see
Blood to walk again and blood to be
[Verse 5]
There are strings attached to our heads
There are strings in arms and legs
The Puppet Master's hands
Oh, they keep us straight
[Verse 6]
Pressing the needle in
I feel the sting, it's Emerencia
Injecting blood into the both of us, it's hot
I think I see her move
There's a tingle in our skin
I can't believe that she can she again
[Verse 7]
There is no mistake, that is my beloved
I have missed you so, oh no
It's like a horror show
Without a word, we know
As we communicate with our eyes
Ooh, deep inside, oh, we wonder why
Why our minds are now in our eyes
We can move without any strings
[Outro]
"They're alive, that's enough for today, put them away"
