Mercyful Fate - Dead Again lyrics

rate me

Why do I keep on doing this? It's not for me anymore

I'm doing this more for you than I

And on that lonely road to nowhere

I lost myself to something else

I don't know where I'm going or where I've been

It's so hard to remember all the things I am, am I?

It feels like the end is near, catching up with me

Catch me if you can, cause I'm going down into the ground

How much longer can I keep going on?

I can feel my lost ones coming down

Sooner than later, I'll see you all again

I feel my purpose here slipping away

I see the sun, but it's raining

I hope I'm on my way to better things

And if I'm not, it doesn't really matter

Cause I am doing this more for you than I am me

I can no longer pretend, that my life is worth living

I... I would rather die, be dead again

Hold on

Now here it comes, death for one, a lonely son

Up then down, I'm spinning around

My sould is so confused again

Am I floating towards the sun?

Hold on, am I dead on?

Solo: Shermann

Through a tunnel of black, why?

Why do I feel so sad?

I've been waiting for the end of act 9 to come

The curtain must fall, the end of a song

Solo: Wead

But the song goes on and on

The light is so very strong

I'm drifting along, I have no will

I'm drifting still

In a room without walls... I feel the chill

No one is here to pick me up

Nothingess... what a mess... oh

Is anybody there?

Is anybody there? I'm talking to you, do you hear me?

If I could only see through the wall of nothingness

The wall of black

They gave me number 9, this is not like the last time

Number 9

This time I am really losing my mind

I hear an orchestra... I see an orchestra

I greet an orchestra... I meet an orchestra

I'm in an orchestra... I am an orchestra

I kill this orchestra... I kill me? No

No don't stop, oh please don't stop

Hey stay here, what's going on?... hey wait for me

Solo: Shermann-Wead

I'm running but I can't keep up

Then I realize my feet are gone

This is such a weird weird song

The orchestra is now a door

One is one and two is four, I can see three more

Seven doors, seven doors

I must choose one before they're gone

But I cannot move, oh they are drifting away now

But I cannot move, oh they are drifting away now

I've got to reach that door, the number 6

I've got to reach that door, the number 6

The number 6-6, the number 6-6-6

The number 6-6-6

The number 6-6-6, that's my door

Wuauuu... look at all the colours

There goes an orchestra, no more doors

Close the window, here they come

I hear another end of this song

But again the song goes on

Dead again, I know cause I've been here before

I'm dead agin, if I could only reach that door

The number 6-6-6, the number 6-6-6

I'm beginning to miss you again

Why can't I just get you out of my mind...

I must forget

Dead again, I know cause I've been here before

I'm dead again, if I could only reach that door

Through a purple mist the light is fading

I guess I'll have to stay dead

A little longer this time

Dead again...
