Down once more

To the dungeon

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 abhorrent face

Track down this murderer

He must be found

Hounded out by

Everyone

Met with hatred

Everywhere

No kind word from

Anyone

No compassion

Anywhere

Christine

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 face -

The infection

Which poisons our love

This face

Which earned

A mother's fear

And loathing

A mask

My first

Unfeeling scrap

Of clothing

Pity comes

Too late -

Turn around

And face your fate

An eternity of this

Before your eyes

This haunted face

Holds 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 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

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

My fallen idol

And false friend

No point in fighting Either way

You choose

He has to win

So do you end

Your days with me

Or do you send

Him to his grave

Why make her lie

To you to save

Me

Past the point

Of no return -

For pity's sake

Christine say no

His life is now the prize

Which you must earn I fought so hard

To free you

You've passed the point

Of no return

I gave 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

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

Just take her and go

Go now - go now and leave me

Paper faces on parade

Masquerade

Hide your face

So the world will

Never find you

Christine I love you

Say you'll share with

Me one

Love one lifetime

Say the word

And I will follow you

Share each day with me

You alone

Can make my song take flight -

It's over now the music of the night
