A new chaplain has arrived
Madeleine and a few other nuns
At the convent will meet him tonight

[Father Picard:]
Wellcome to my quarters, do come inside
Wellcome dearest Sisters, come into the light

I'm Father Picard, I'm taking over
Things will be different here
you are the four GOD has chosen
To be his angels in white
Drink My sweet holy wine

^Oh yeah come on it's not a crime
From now on every sunday this time
You will attend this communion of mine

Father Picard is hiding something
A white powder for the wine

[Father Picard:]

Drink My sweet holy wine

The nuns freak out, lust in their eyes
From now on every sunday this time
Father Picard's in control of their minds

Father Picard is hiding something
A white powder for the wine

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

Tea time Monday night, I was waiting
passing time
Then from the hallway, I saw Mother
in her nightgown
Swaying up the stairs, up the stairs, it
seemed so unreal
I knew Grandma' had sent "THEM"
again, the invisible friends

A little later in the middle of tea we
came close to ecstasy
"THEY" were telling tales from
beyond when Grandma' rose

She opened the door, and there was
Missy
Seeing Mother in Grandmother's
chair, she went into tears

Missy was screaming
"What have You done, what have you
done to My Ma", crying louder now
"We better get rid of her, She's too
young anyway", it was Grandma' who
spoke

"Bye, bye Missy, be gone forever
The beautiful fireplace in the kitchen
will do"

I saw Missy struggling in Grandma'
wrinkled hands
"Oh No, let me be, Oh No Please No
Grandma' Please
Aagh Grandma' You're hurting me.
Don't touch me or I'll break it, I've got
the tea pot, I'll do it anyway"
I saw liquid spreading, the bloody tea
all over the floor
Now I heard "THEIR" voices, some
kind of demon growls
DIE - SHE BROKE AMON - AMON - DIE

"THEY" dropped "THEIR" tea cups,
Grandma' stood still
forced by invisible hands, Missy went
down the stairs
As I waved her goodbye, Missy was
sobbing away

Will I ever see her again, Bye bye
Missy, don't be afraid

Tuesday early evening

[Father Malone:] "Holy Lord, Almighty Father
Everylasting God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ
Who sent your only begotten son into the world
To crush that lion
Strike terror Lord, into the Beast
Let your mighty hand cast him out of your servant
Sarah Lafayette
So he may no longer hold captive this prisoner

I cast you, you unclean spirit
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ
It is he who commands you
It is God himself who commands you
By this sign of Holy Cross
Give way to Christ
The power of Christ compells you
The power of Christ compells you
The power.....the power.....

Again I'm so alone, the wine is pouring down
No one to share with, no one to care with
The only light in my life
Comes from the candlelight, black candles left behind
As I'm sitting through the night
I'm so cold and dark inside
Angel, your memory will haunt me till the day I die
Just a shadow, a shadow of a man
I'm just a shadow, a shadow of a man
The eyes of statues standing along the nave
They seem to follow my every move, every tear I shed
I am no longer living, but I am still not dead
I'm somewhere in between, I am of the unseen
Must we have the other side, just to feel alive?
Oh I wonder what would be had we not created me
Just a shadow, a shadow of a man
I'm just a shadow, a shadow of a man
The eyes of statues standing along the nave
They seem to follow my every move
They drive me insane
Surrounded by darkness in this cold church of thine
I try to remember, all that once was mine
I don't know what tomorrow will bring
But if life is so divine, how come I suffer so in mine?
How come I suffer in mine?
The eyes of statues standing along the nave
They seem to follow my every move
They drive me insane
I am no longer of the living, but I am still not dead
I'm somewhere in between, I am of the unseen
I lived a lifetime of sorrow and hate, up until the other day
That's when I left this sick old world behind
Oh how love can make you blind

The morning slowly came, my life about to end
Then the wind would change, all but one had left
The angelic wolf had stayed, without a word she said
Follow me, follow the wolf
And so i followed the wolf, up the wooded mountain side
Close to the top... she suddenly stopped
Sun to the East, man and beast
Just two silhouettes... in a landscape never to forget
Like dark decaying teeth, I saw the village beneath
A few and distant roads all leading away from here
Nobody in the streets... decay
I must follow the wolf again, I must follow her till the end
The end
The Wolf had turned around, facing higher ground
And there it was... The House of God
In awe I looked as time had stopped
Follow me
I had never seen a church like this before
"This Place is terrible" inscribed above the door
Like dark decaying teeth, I saw the church within
A few distant thoughts, inviting me in to sin
Nobody in the church... decay
Shrouded in a gloomy light, as if my final night
I wonder if God was ever here
Or did he turn away in fear, did he turn away in fear?

There he was that little man, sitting by the altar... Black Devil
Carved in stone so dark and could... Black Devil
Help me, Help me, cause I don't know what's going on
It was the early morning of the seventh day
I had been making love to Angel in every single way
The sun was peeking through a window high above
That's when I saw her kiss the little devil on his head
Black Devil... if you could only speak... Black Devil
What do you see when you're looking at me?
There he was that little man, fingers spread like claws... Black Devil
I wonder what it is he knows... Black Devil
Help me, help me, cause I don't know what's going on
Black Devil... if you could only speak...
Black Devil What do you see when you're looking at me?
When I look around, this church on holy ground
There are things within, that should have never been
Why two pulpits in a place like this?
One facing to the East, the other to the West
One of th guilded canopies have gargoyles in the sun
And on the other canopy I see demons having fun
Black Devil... if you could only speak... Black Devil
What do you see when you're looking at me?
Black Devil always near, why don't you want me here?
I can feel your hate in my soul, I wonder what it is you know
Black Devil... what's going on?

Outside the leaves are slowly falling from the trees
Black clouds are moving in, a storm is coming on
Inside the confessional, Angel and I are playing games
I'm acting the priest, and she is the sinner of all my dreams...
Dreams, dreams, turn into a nightmare
A sudden change on her face, her smile is gone without a trace
"Nothing... nothing is forever", she said
"So many things are wrong in here, so many times I've lived in fear
A year ago... I signed a sacred pact, and if you love me so will you"
Then she told me of the Pact, her tears were not an act
And they were not alone, all my dreams... shattered to the bone
I fell to my knees in prayer... but ohhh this is Hell
The Pact is so powerful, it leaves you no way out
Unless within a year, someone else will sign it in blood
Someone to take your place, to guard this evil church
Another wolf to roam the hills, another wolf... in for the kill
"Nothing... nothing is forever", she said
"So many things are wrong in here, so many times I've lived in fear
A year ago... I signed a sacred Pact"
If i sign it now, Angel will be free to go
She must leave without her memory, no more a wolf, but as a lady
And if I don't, then in seven days she will die before my very eyes
Either way... I'll never see her again
If i sign then I must stay, and only leave as a wolf for prey
"Nothing... nothing is forever", she said
"So many things are wrong in here, so many times I've lived in fear
A year ago... I signed a sacred Pact"
And now I'm signing it for you

Madeleine is running away from herself
Afraid of shame, she's crying out for help
To be clean again

No one cared and no one ever will
Her feelings were not shared, she wants to break the spell
and she's going

Into the convent, a smile on her face
Into the darkness to hide all her sins
Wondering what could go wrong in this place

[Father David:]
Wellcome Sister, I'm Your chaplain
Down on Your knees and pray if You please
in This convent I'm Your master
Kiss My cross now dearest Sister
In the Name of ...

Madeleine is running away from herself
As father David said:
At comminion You must be undressed
Why did she go

Into the convent, a smile on her face
Into the darkness to hide all her sins
Wondering what could go wrong in this place

[Father David:]
Come along Sister Madeleine
Unfold Your wildest dreams, it's time to join and sing
Let the feast begin

That night she awoke to find The Eye
On the stone cold floor Why, She never ever would knoe why
But she put it on

Next day father David passed away
At communion time
Why, he never ever would know why
But he looked at The Eye

The eye of the necklace is laking it's toll
Inside the convent a soul will rejoice

I stumbled out of Grandma's room,
down the stairs and out of the house
Once outside I felt My mind begin to
fight a battle for control

With the tea pot broken I kind of
realized
That "THEIR" power was less here,
here on the outside

I fell to my knees in haziness
And I looked in through the window
to the cellar

Things were moving down there,
"THEY" were searching for something
And "THEY" really found it,
the big axe was flying

Flying out through the cellar door
Up the stairs to the kitchen...
Then I passed out

The next thing I remember seeing was
the smoke coming from the chimney
I soon realized the smoke I saw was
actually... Oh No!
All there was left of Missy and her
dress, poor little girl

The spell was broken, I really felt the
change
As my mind and body became one
again

The moon was alive with its silvery
eye
Staring right into My evil heart

I went back to see if My Grandma'
was still there
Waiting for me in the attic... Oh I hate
that bitch

Tuesday morning

At the light of dawn, on a day without
Sunshine...Salem had vanished
Gone, would Sarah, would she survive
Grandpa was panicking

Father Malone. The Exorcist...Father Malone. The Exorcist

Sarah's voice had changed from female to
Male...and that was wrong, it was as if Sarah
Had gone. Grandpa remembered his friend
Father Malone was the name

[solo Andy]

[Grandpa:] "Put me through to New Orleans
The Abbey of the Holy Saints
Father Malone please... It's urgent
You got to, you got to, you got to put me through"

It only took a minute or two, before the Father he understood
Father Malone: "Listen here my friend, do not despair
I will be there...this afternoon

But beware...of the Daytime Moon"

[solo Herb]

Father Malone. The Exorcist...Father Malone, he is here

[Father Malone:] "Holy Cross and Bible
Holy Water for the soul
And so the house I bless, but David, he's got to
Go, call for an ambulance before the others know"
Then he went back to Sarah's room
