I
Faust:
Claiming
immortality
No one
ever thinks
For us, there’s no eternity
This cup
of poison we all drink
There
comes the time to join the dead
When all
hope is lost it’s been said
He
appears with his grinning face
A
temptation in all possible ways…
II
Mephistopheles:
I’m the
god of a second chance
Would
you like to join me in this dance?
I shall set
you free
There’s
no need to bleed
Now you
claim to be alive
I shall
ease your suffering
There’s
no need to strive
To be
saved I just ask for one thing…
III
Faust:
Frightened
by the demon in front of me
While I
feel the darkness grow around
Am I
going mad? Still, I can’t believe
This
madness knows no bounds…
Who are
you endless creature of darkness?
What do
you seek in a poor dying man?
Would
you try to make me faithless?
Won’t you
kill me? I know you can…
All I
wanted was a second chance
A chance
to do it right this time
To live
again, this time I want no pain
Then
I’ll share your dance
And
everything shall be mine
I’m now
prepared, to call you then…
Mephistopheles!
IV
Mephistopheles:
I am the
one you seek
But you
can never find
I am the
one who molds the night
The full
moon of your endless sin
I just
ask for your soul
So hold
my hand now
You are
not alone, no!
You may
have it all!
V
Faust:
His eyes
ablaze
My mind,
a maze
My
freedom I chase
I just
want to laze
So I
closed my eyes
Took his
hand and heard his lies
Weak I
was, my soul I toss
In the
hellish fire and moss
VI
Mephistopheles:
You are
my Faust
My new
little toy
You’ve
paid such a cost
To whom
just wanted joy
Now you
are mine
And
there is nothing divine
That can
save you from me
Now get
down on your knees
And pray
to Mephistopheles!
