Candlemass
Black Dwarf
[Verse 1]
Serpent rising on the horizon
And right here, in my abode
Full sensation, a manifestation
I'm petrified, I cannot go

Black and white day glow, cold creeping fright show
A star of infinite mass
Soul corroding and head exploding
Existence reduced in a flash

[Pre-Chorus]
Diamond of a million flies
Illusion of hope
Black lizard in disguise
Hate fiend on dope

[Chorus]
Dwarf
The black dwarf

[Verse 2]
Slow death descending, pain never ending
Astaroth won't go away
So radiating, now always hating
This liar commands you to stay
Depressions and crisis, hopeless advices
Suicide, acid rain
Controlling the masses, misguiding our asses
Bringing me stain on stain

[Pre-Chorus]
Freak show from outer Hell
Psychos create
Heroes or villains low
The choices you make

[Chorus]
Dwarf
The black dwarf
The black dwarf
The black dwarf

[Bridge]
Have you seen the poison queen
Sitting on your shoulder?
Don't you know what she says?
Can you not control her?

Read the hex like you read the stories
God is dead and you have no worries
Forget ambition, fuck the vision
Kill the lights and go to sleep
[Verse 3]
The stalker is stalking and talking and talking
Colossal power and wit
Pathetic, unethical, and yes, unaesthetic
Oh boy, you're so full of shit

You're playing me tricks, six hundred sixty-six
The devil dictating the news
I can't keep resisting, black dwarf's insisting
I'm so afraid of you

[Pre-Chorus]
Diamond of a million flies, illusion of hope
Black lizard in disguise, hate fiend on dope
Freak show from outer Hell, psychos create
Heroes or villains low, the choices you make

[Chorus]
Dwarf
The black dwarf
The black dwarf
The black dwarf

[Outro]
From the filth of the crucifix
To the stench of headlines
The dwarf is there
His ugly face blocking out the sunshine
No taboos and no distinctions
Fantasy creating fiction
And no one knows what to believe
So kill the lights and go to sleep

Go to sleep
