The Black Halo

Mephisto: Aspirat primo fortuna labori, me duce tutus eris. Vox populi, vox dei! Ad maiorem dei gloriam, ad infinitum. (The fortune is smiling at our first effort, let me lead you and you will be safe. The voice of people, voice of God. For bigger glory of the God, to the infinity.) You know just who I am, don't be so distant. Because when you're lost, I am solely there to share your grief. Wailing your sorrow is only my way to comfort you. Reminders of innocent youth! Waiting, for morrow you're lonely, I name your solitude. I speaketh the truth! Now tell me all about your pain, down to the detail. Don't say it's Love! Your fragile heart feeds my contempt. Wailing your sorrow is only my way to comfort you. Reminders of innocent youth! Waiting, for morrow you're lonely, I name your solitude. I speaketh the truth! Chase the heathen call, we belong you and I. Unison in all you deny! Wailing your sorrow is only my way to comfort you. Reminders of innocent youth! Waiting, for morrow you're lonely, I name your solitude. I speaketh the truth! I am the thorn in your side that seeks accomplishment. Reminding the mortal of Death! I am the spore of your pride, an Angel Heaven sent. The master of all, I am the urge of the flesh.

Ariel: Rules without exceptions last eternally. Every move you make creates your destiny. I've come to soak my sorrow in halo black, as black as the seal on my soul! Because when the lights are down there's no more to say. Love is the real pain, an internal revolution in our minds. And when the lights are down you're so far away. Tell me your real name, in the silence of the darkness we unite. Rules without exceptions last eternally. Every move you make creates your destiny. What can protect me from the past and all the things that I have done? She told me and then she was gone! But when the lights are down there's no more to say. Deep in the shadows where the last of my delusions made a stand. Because when the lights are down she'll take me away. Tell me her real name and in Death we'll live the Love we never had. Come all ye faithful beneath the moon. Into the void as one marching on. Because when the lights are down there's no more to say. Love is the real pain, an internal revolution in our minds. Because when the lights are down she'll take me away. Tell me her real name and in Death we'll live the Love we never had.

Ariel: Merely the sound of your voice made me believe that you were her. Just like the river disturbs my inner peace. Once I believed I could find just a trace of her beloved soul. Once I believed she was all, then she smothered my beliefs. One cold winter's night I may follow her voice to the river. Leave me for now and forever, leave what you can... Ariel & Marguerite: Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again, like the wind sweeps the earth. Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend, you've fallen deep. Ariel: I was a liar in every debate, I rule the forces that fuelled your hate. Ariel & Marguerite: When the cold in my heart leaves it comes to an end. Quietly I'll go to sleep! Ariel: How could that first time recur when memories linger on and on? What made me think you were her? Helena is dead to all, dead to all! Nothing can bring her to life, don't pretend that I'll be loving you. Once I believed she was gone, I corrupted from within. Ariel & Marguerite: Leave me for now and forever, leave what you can... Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again, like the wind sweeps the earth. Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend, you've fallen deep. Ariel: I was a liar in every debate, I rule the forces that fuelled your hate. Ariel & Marguerite: When the cold in my heart leaves it comes to an end. Quietly I'll go to sleep! Ariel: Follow me into the light! Marguerite: Like ice on a lake of tears I'll take you through. Ariel: Leave me tonight! Marguerite: Life fades in! Ariel: I've gone too far to begin all anew with someone like you... Ariel & Marguerite: Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again, like the wind sweeps the earth. Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend, you've fallen deep. Ariel: I was a liar in every debate, I rule the forces that fuelled your hate. Ariel & Marguerite: When the cold in my heart leaves it comes to an end. Quietly I'll go to sleep!

Ariel: If my soul could revive from my carnal remains, what does it matter to me? If it all fades to black, if I'm born once again then no one really is free. How could I be condemned for the things that I've done if my intentions were good? I guess I'll never know, some things under the sun can never be understood. How can we believe in Heaven? Human reason counters all, ideas of a soul society. My life is just a fragment of the universe and all, there must be more than I can see. In the dark we're the same, in the concept of time we're like a grain in the sand. And we strive for the flame as if Death was our aim because we cannot understand. How I wish there was a Heaven! All for one and one for all, a flawless soul society. Our lives are just a fragment of the universe and all, there may be more than we can see. Baby Alena: -Sounds of a laughing baby- How could I be condemned for the things that I've done if my intentions were good? I guess I'll never know, some things under the sun can never be understood. How can we believe in Heaven? All for one and one for all, ideas of a soul society. Our lives are just a fragment of the universe and all, there may be more than we can see.

Ariel: Sub sole nihil novi est, ad aspera per aspera. Quaerite prime regnum dei, ante bellum memento mori. (Nothing new under the sun To the stars through the thorns At first seek the kingdom of the god Remember the death before war)

Ariel: Once my life was plain and clear I recall, once my ignorance was bliss. Nightfall came like a serpent's kiss to my troubled mind. Why, oh why my God have you abandoned me in my sobriety? Behind the old facade I'm your bewildered child so take me cross the river wide. Binding promises were made on my soul, grand illusions lead astray. Ice cold winds swept my heart away, bring me back to you. Why, oh why my God have you abandoned me in my sobriety? Behind the old facade I'm your bewildered child so take me cross the river wide. Helena: I remember a song like in a dream where September was long and winter unreal. Ariel: Why, oh why my God above have you abandoned me in my sobriety? Behind the old facade I'm your bewildered child so take me cross the river wide.

Ariel: Pushing for the limit of sanity. Pushing for the surface, so I can breathe. Dark is the night for us all, but some days I feel the light crawling down these jagged walls. Blessed sunlight... Some of this pain is sole subjected, but what was I to do. Some of this pain will always stay deep and true. I left her with a warning, without protection. Because the human nature has its ways, with lust. With her back against the wall, she crumbled! Just a minute more would save her life, and even so, part of me. Blessed sunlight... Some of this pain is sole subjected, but what was I to do. Some of this pain will always stay deep and true. I see her shame in my desire, it all took place too soon. Some of these wounds will always bleed over you. Over you!

Ariel: I have never craved the system's sympathy, I get restless over pity smiles. Some precaution wouldn't harm my history, if I had the will to wait a little while. You cut the silence like a knife, you know I can't repent for all. Moonlight falling over me, sail on where the shadows hide. Moonlight crawling down on me, just like you could not compete with my pride. Compensation for a misconducted life, is it way too much to ask? Hard to wake up with your heart and soul deprived. When the morning comes to second to your last! You cut the silence like a knife, like the edge of my last defenses. You cut the silence like a knife, you know I won't repent for all. Moonlight falling over me, sail on where the shadows hide. Moonlight crawling down on me, just like you could not compete with my pride. Shine on silver from the sky into the night. Guide on shivers and I need your bleeding light. Moonlight falling over me, sail on where the shadows hide. Moonlight crawling down on me, just like you could not compete with my pride.

Cabaret Singer: C'era una volta un uomo con gli occhi verso la luna. E si chiedeva: "Verra presto l'amore?" E che altro esiste in un cuore gelato, tranne il pensiero di un assassinio molto silenzioso? (Once upon a time there was a man with his eyes towards the moon. And he wonder to himself: "Will love come soon?" And does something else exist in a frozen heart, except the thought of a very silent murder?)

Ariel: Come wind, come snow, come Winterland. I have resigned myself to Death. Come will to show the heathen hand, So I can draw my final breath. You could take me higher, so you said I trusted you. I may be a liar but betrayal lies on you. I could feel where the journey ends. Final cough of a last defense. Darkness come tonight, I have no fear of what you hold. Darkness come alive, you are the stories I've been told. I possess a power of survival in the cold. Life is like a flower as it stumbles out of fold. We all know when the time has come. This is where I will linger on. Darkness come tonight, I have no fear of what you hold. Darkness come alive, you are the stories I've been told. Darkness come tonight, nothing can take my faith away. Darkness come alive, life turns to black from silver gray.

Ariel: Here we are under the same old sun. All alone, yet somehow bound and unify. Dust to dust! Ashes to ashes won't take long. The search for the harbor, for somewhere to belong. They say that faith is all you need to stay forever young. What you've sown is what you reap, our sins can't be undone. There is a God in each society. So right is wrong where wrong is right. No one can be sure! But still we are certain of what we know is truth. The only truth, we're building our temples taller. They say that faith is all you need to stay forever young. What you've sown is what you reap, our sins can't be undone. How can we trust them once again, they used to tell us lies. And their voices will sustain, because nothing ever dies. Love is the only truth, pure as the well of youth until it breaks your heart. You took me higher than the mountains I have climbed. You waited all your life for me! Left me all alone behind, but we'll meet again. We will meet again! They say that faith is all you need to stay forever young. What you've sown is what you reap, our sins can't be undone. How can we trust them once again, they used to tell us lies. And their voices will sustain, because nothing ever dies.

Ariel: Who wants to separate the world we know from our beliefs? And who sees only black and white, distinguish loss from sacrifice? Some day we may come to peace with the world within ourselves. And I will await you until I close my eyes. When your time has come you know you'll be lonely once again. And the final winter comes to us all. Life is treacherous, but you're not the only who must pretend. We're a second in time, we're the last in the line of the prey that walks the earth. Good and evil combined! I am the God in my own history, the master of the game. I may believe if she would come to me, and whisper out my name. Sometimes I wonder where the wind has gone, if life has ever been. Sometimes I wonder how belief alone can cut me free from sin. When you close your eyes, mementos of summer retrieves your mind like a drizzle afternoon cleans the air. When the winter blows you're glad you remember, you really tried. And it comes to an end, even winter, life fall. And we all have our beliefs, pray for mercy for all. Mercy for all... Pray for mercy for all! I am a man without a mystery, the deal is done within. I will embrace the coldest winter breeze and pay for every sin. Helena: Victoria non praeda, memento mori. Mephisto: Una voce... Volo non valeo, dulce et decorum est. Pro patria mori, memento mori. Ariel: So subservient in your embrace. No more denial, no run away. This is the final, my last recall. And that's the price for what we learn. The more we know, the more we yearn. Because we're so alone! I am a man without a mystery, the deal is done within. I will embrace the coldest winter breeze, the journey can begin. I'm still the God in my own history. I still believe that she will come to me, and whisper out my name. Some day we will come to peace and reach beyond behind the lies. And I will await you until I close my eyes. Helena: Ariel, Ariel, Ariel, Ariel...

Visitor of the Theater: Songs of pain and soothing lullabies. Songs of happiness and some that make us cry. One song we share, the cross we all bear. One that segregates, one that unifies. All we wonder, no one ever denies if once given life we must die. So bow down with me, where summer fades into fall and leave your hatchets of hate. Bow down with me, and sing the saddest of all, the song we all serenade. The more we know, the less we understand. Life, eternity, the savagery of man. We want it all, aimed at the fall. What is destiny with the masterplan? All we wonder, no one ever denies if once given life we must die. So bow down with me, where summer fades into fall and leave your hatchets of hate. Bow down with me, and sing the saddest of all, the song we all serenade. Hold on now! Don't leave, don't let it go. Dance away with the waltz of life. Right or wrong, the seed we never sow. That's our loss, our sacrifice. What does the winter bring, if not yet another spring. So bow down with me, where summer fades into fall and leave your hatchets of hate. Bow down with me, and sing the saddest of all, the song we all serenade.
