Abigail II: The Revenge

Curtains of back were inside the room 
Shutting out the light, the light that always hurt his eyes 
There was nothing bright in this entire mansion... no, no 
Except for the candlelight... the light... and the fire that burned real slow 


Oh Miriam... why did you have to go and die? 


Curtains of black were inside the room 
Abigail was not alone, there was someone else in here too 
"Come closer dear", said the shadow in the wheelchair 
"Stand by the fireplace, so I can better see your face" 


Oh Miriam, why did you have to go and die? 


[Solo: Andy] 


The shadow could not believe, the likeness in her face 
It looked as if his Miriam had come back from the grave 
"I am Count de La Fey, and you are?"
"Abigail", she whispered and shivered to the bone 
"Can I?", he said "Can I,.. can I call you Miriam?"


"Miriam... or Abigail is fine 
You can even call me Lucy for it is just a name"


He struggled out of the wheelchair 
Since his fall many years ago 
Now he could only walk by a cane, what a shame 


[Solo: Andy] 


"Don't move! Stay where you are", and then he was right behind her 
Touching her long black hair, he was breathing much harder now 
Then he grabbed her head 


In the pain she screamed as he 
Yanked out a lock of that beautiful hair, oh dear oh dear oh dear 


He quickly struggled across the floor to a smaller cabinet 
Behind glass door it said: "To My beloved Dear"
It was then he started to compare, and she saw the other HAIR 
In his twisted mind, she was back, but why 
"I must retire my dear in order to prepare 
You should do the same, tomorrow an heir"
