Steemit Open Mic Week 78 - Acoustic Remake Of King Diamond's "Mother's Getting Weaker"

Greetings Steemians!

I'm back with the next chapter in King Diamond's eerie saga of "Them" with the song "Mother's Getting Weaker". I havr been feeling ill off and on and was unsure whether I would even participate this week, but I muddled through on this one and it seems to have turned out well enough.

lyrics:
Tonight would be the last night that we had our tea
That bloody tea, which sent us into ecstasy
Yesterday Mother complained, feeling dizzy, all in pain
Mother's getting weaker, looking paler day by day
As morning came, she could not make it out of bed
And Grandma's spell was getting straight into her head
Not a single word, she didn't seem to be alive
Getting weaker, looking paler day by day
Then Missy came in and she led me by the hand
I didn't want to go, Oh but I should have known
Mother was barely conscious, why should I care
Just looking forward to the next ordeal
I think I heard My sister begging me to stay
She gave me the phone, so I could call someone for help
I simply let go of her hand, then I cut the wire
Missy was crying as I left them both behind
And Mother's getting weaker, Missy shouted at
My back "I hate you"

Songwriters: Andy La Rocque / Kim Bendix Petersen

As you can see the young King is fully under the spell of Grandma and "Them" with their evil tea ;)
