Текст песни Into The Convent (Reissue) - King Diamond

Madeleine is running away from herself.
Afraid of the 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.

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.

"Welcome 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 communion 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.

"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 know 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 taking it's toll.
Inside the convent a soul will rejoice.
