Down once more to the dungeons of my black despair Down we plunge to the prison of my mind Down that path into darkness deep as hell! Why, you ask, was I bound and chained in this cold and dismal place? Not for any mortal sin, but the wickedness of my aberrant face! But down is murder, and he must be found! Pounded down by everyone, make with hatred everywhere No kind words from anyone, no compassion anywhere Christy! Why? Why? Your hand at the level of your eyes Have you gorged yourself at last in your lust for blood? Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh? That fate which condemns me to wallow in blood Has also denied me the joys of the flesh This feisty infection which poisons our love This faith which earned a mother's fear and loathing A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothing When pity comes too late, turn around and face your fate An eternity of death before your eyes These haunted faiths hold no horror for me now It's in your soul that the true distortion lies Wait! I think, my dear, we have a guest! Sir! Raoul! This is indeed an unparalleled delight! I had rather hoped that you would come And now, my wish comes true, you have truly made my night Free her! Do what you like, only free her! Have you no pity? Your lover makes a passionate plea Please, Raoul, it's useless I love her! Does that mean nothing? I love her! Show some compassion! The world showed no compassion to me! Christine, Christine, let me see her Be my guest, sir Monsieur, I bid you welcome Did you think that I would harm her? Why would I make her pay for the sins which are yours? Order your fine horses now Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes Nothing can save you now Except, perhaps, Christine Start a new life with me Buy his freedom with your love Refuse me and you send your lover to his death This is the choice This is the point of no return The tears I might have shed for your dark fate Grow cold and turn to tears of hate Christine, forgive me, please forgive me I did it all for you and all for nothing I drew a close friend Was it late for turning back? Too late for prayers and useless pity? Say you love me Although a prize for help When my life is over No point in fighting For either way you choose You cannot win So do you end your days with me Or do you send him to his grave? Do I make her lie to you to save me? This is the point of no return Christine, Christine, say no Don't throw your life away For my sake It's a price which you must pay I fought so hard to free you You pass the point of no return You deceived me I gave you my mind blindly You try my patience Make your choice Pitiful creature of darkness What kind of life have you known? God give me courage to show you You are not alone You are not alone You are not alone Take her Forget me Forget all of this Leave me alone Forget all you've seen Go now Don't let them find you Take the boat Write on me Never to tell The secret you know Of the angel in hell Go now Go now And leave me Ask a leaf Paper faces on parade Ask a reed Hide your face The world will never find you You are not alone You are not alone The face of the world will never find you Christine I love you Christine I love you Christine I love you Christine I love you Christine I love you Say the word and I will follow you Say the word and I will follow you Say the word and I will follow you Say the word and I will follow you You alone can make my song take flight It's over now The music of the night The music of the night The music of the night The music of the night
