King Diamond
Six Feet Under
[Verse 1]
My family just couldn't wait
I should have seen it coming
What a nice conspiracy
What a nice surprise
But now it's all too late
I am six feet under
It's so very hard to breathe
My family they put me here
In a coffin made of glass
So I can see them in their glory
Or they can see me in my misery
They're standing all around my grave
[Chorus]
Six feet under
I'm in a coffin made of glass
Six feet under
It's so very hard to breathe
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
[Chorus]
Six feet under
I'm in a coffin made of glass
Six feet under
It's so very hard to breathe
[Post-Chorus]
My hands are turning blue
While my nails are turning to red
[Guitar Solo: Herb Simonsen]
[Verse 2]
Looking up into faces of greed
I'm sweating cold and white with fear
Sinister smiles upon their lips
One of them is waving me goodbye
I am six feet under
It's so very hard to breathe
My lovely sister is laughing at me
I cannot hear but I can see
Now she is kicking soil into my face
I swear I will return to haunt her
[Chorus]
Six feet under
I'm in a coffin made of glass
Six feet under
It's so very hard to breathe
[Post-Chorus]
My face is turning blue
While my eyes are turning to red
