Lyrics King Diamond – The Wedding Dream

My mother is entering my dream now
She’s wearing a wedding dress
Something’s wrong with the way she walks the aisle
I think it’s her legs

Suddenly there is someone else beside her
That man I recognize
The doctor intends to marry mother
It’s got to be stopped

Now what have I done
My mother’s on the floor and the doctor’s gone
Everything is wrong
And as I keep the axe I wonder what’s to come

I’m caught within a dream there’s no way out
I can’t escape
If only I could see the light of day
I might escape the dream
The wedding dream… oh the dream

Now everything turns to darkness
Deep within I feel like I’m going blind
There is a light at the end of this starless nightmare
Someone’s calling, guiding me back inside… the dream… no

Get away from him mother
You better stop kissing, ’cause he’s an enemy
Take at look at his hand
He’s got the key to my house, the doctor is the devil

I’m caught within a dream there’s no way out
I can’t escape
If only I could see the light of day
I might escape the dream
The wedding dream… oh the dream

Dream… the wedding dream… oh the dream

Now everything turns to darkness
Deep within I feel like I’m going blind
There is a light at the end of this starless nightmare
Someone’s screaming: «help me please» and it’s me

At sunrise I woke up in a sweat
The nightmare was gone
The dream I was sent is fading slowly
I do not understand
