Devil In The Belfry

[Tobias Sammet:] 

I dropped off in the shadows 

The lead of a tragedy 

I open my eyes — blind by the spotlight 

And what do I see? 



[Jorn Lande:] 

Pushed by ambition, you've been granted admission 

To the hall of acclaim, 

She denied your affection, 

Now listen the whole world is screaming your name 



[Tobias Sammet:] 

I will forget her but I won't forgive 

The curtain has fallen, behold the messiah 



[Chorus:] 

Riding high, the devil on the crest 

For all the world to see forevermore 

I am I — devil in the belfry, I'll be glorified forevermore 



[Jorn Lande:] 

Is it a sin to learn to be able to live without love? 

And is it a sin to put love under will and control from above? 



[Tobias Sammet:] 

Devil in my fingers — pleasure at my feet 

Mind out of sight 

The shadow I'll cast shall darken her world 

And ghost her at night 



With each song you'll die a little for me 

It won't leave the scar, 'cause I've drown the curtain 



[Chorus x2] 



[Jorn Lande:] 

Into the opera like moths to the flame 

Spellbind their senses to follow the hero 



[Chorus x2]
