Lost in the Darkness - Jekyll

Lost in the darkness
Silence surrounds you.
Once there was morning
Now endless night.

If I could reach you,
I'd guide you and teach you
To walk from the darkness
Back into the light.

Deep in your silence,
Please try to hear me:
I'll keep you near me
Till night passes by.

I will find the answer.
I'll never desert you -
I promise you this -
Till the day that I die...

Goodnight, Father!

Facade - Ensemble

There's a face that we wear
In the cold light of day -
It's society's mask,
It's society's way,
And the truth is
That it's all a facade!

There's a face that we hide
Till the nighttime appears,
And what's hiding inside,
Behind all of our fears,
Is our true self,
Locked inside the facade!

Every day
People, in their own sweet way,
Like to add a coat of paint,
And be what they ain't!

That's how our little game is played.
Livin' out a masquerade,
Actin' a bizarre charade -
While playin' the Saint!

But there's one thing I know,
And I know it for sure:
This disease that we've got
Has got no ready cure!
And I'm certain
Life is terribly hard -
When your life's a facade!

Look around you!
I have found
You cannot tell, by lookin' at the surface,
What is lurkin' there beneath it!
See that face!
Now, I'm prepared to bet you,
What you see's not what you get -
'Cause man's a master of deceit!

So, what is this sinister secret?
The lie he will tell you is true? -
It's that each man you meet
In the street
Isn't one man, but two!

Nearly everyone you see -
Like him an' her
An' you, an' me -
Pretends to be a pillar of society -
A model of propriety -
Sobriety an' piety -
Who shudders at the thought
Of notoriety!

The ladies and gents 'ere before you -
Which none of 'em ever admits -
May 'ave saintly looks -
But they're sinners an' crooks!

Hypocrites!
Hypocrites!

There a preachers who kill!
There a killers who preach!
There are teachers who lie!
There are liars who teach!
Take yer pick, dear -
'Cause it's all a facade!

If we're not one, but two,
Are we evil or good?
Do we walk the fine line -
That we'd cross, if we could?
Are we waiting -
To break through the facade?

One or two
Might look kinda well-to-do -
Hah! They're as bad as me an you,
Right down to their boots!

I'm inclined to think -
Half mankind
Thinks the other half is blind!
Wouldn't be surprised to find -
They're all in cahoots!

At the end of the day,
They don't mean what they say,
They don't say what they mean,
They don't ever come clean -
And the answer -
Is it's all a facade!

Man is not one, but two.
He is evil and good
An' he walks the fine line
We'd all cross, if we could!

It's a nightmare -
We can never discard -
So we stay on our guard -
Though we love the facade -
What's behind the facade?
Look behind the facade!

No One Knows Who I Am - Lucy

Look at me and tell me who I am
Why I am - What I am
Call me a fool and it's true I am
I don't know who I am.

It's such a shame - I'm such a sham
No one knows who I am.

Am I the face of the future?
Am I the face of the past?
Am I the one who must fniish last?

Look at me and tell me who I am
Why I am - What I am

Will I survive - who will give a damn
If no one knows who I am

Nobody knows
Not even you
No one knows who I am...

Good 'n' Evil - Lucy

Good and evil -
And theur merits -
Men have argued through history -
As well they should!
My philosophy
Any child can see -
"Good is evil -
And therefore
All evil is good!"

How do you tell evil from good?
Evil does well - Good not so good!
Evil's the one that is free everywhere -
Good is the one that they sell!
You must decide which is heaven -
Which is hell!

Good men maintain evil's a curse! -
But it is plain good's even worse!
Evil's the one that they tell you to shun -
Good is the one to embrace
Say that and Satan will laugh right in your face!

The battle between good and evil
Goes back to the start -
Adam and Eve and the apple tore Eden apart!
The key thing about good 'n' evil -
Each man has to choose! -
Heaven 'n' hell
Is a helluv a gamble to lose! -
But as I peruse
This world we abuse -
It's hell that we choose -
And heaven must lose!

Evil is everywhere -
Good doesn't have a prayer!
Good is commendable -
Evil's defendable!
Evil is viable
Good's unreliable!
Good may be thankable!
Evil is bankable!

Evil's for me - you can have good!
Doesn't suit me to be Robin Hood!
S'easier by far, from way that things are,
To remain good 'n' evil
Than try to be evil and good!

This is the Moment - Jekyll

This is the moment
This is the day
When I send all my doubts
and demons on their way!
Every endeavour
I have made - ever
Is coming into play
Is here and now - today!

This is the moment
This is the time
When the momentum and
the moment are in rhyme!

Give me this moment
This precious chance
I'll gather up my past
And make some sense at last!

This is the moment
When all I've done
All of the dreaming,
scheming and screaming become one.
This is the day
See it sparkle and shine!
When all I've lived for becomes mine!

For all these years,
I've faced the world alone
And now the time has come
To prove to them I made it on my own!

This is the moment
My final test
Destiny beckoned
I never eckoned second best!

I won't look down
I must not fall!
This is the moment
The sweetest moment of them all!

This is the moment
Damn all the odds!
This day or never
I'll sit forever with the Gods!

When I look back
I will always recall
Moment for moment
This was the moment
The greatest moment of them all!

The Transformation - Jekyll

I must be wise,
I must try to analyze
Each change in me,
Everything I see -
How will it be?
Will I see the world
Through different eyes?

Like a warning light
Glimmering in red
Like crimson bloodshed
Shimmering in red
Beautiful and strange
See the colours change before my eyes!
See how they dance and they sparkle
Like diamonds at night!
Leading me out of the darkness
And into the light!

Three fifty-eight a.m. It is done.
I have injected 5 centiliters of the newly fused formula.
A slight feeling of euphoria. Light-headedness.
No noticeable behavioral differences.

Now the die is cast
Nothing left to do!
Time alone can prove
My theories true!
Show the world...

Dear God! - What's this?

Something is happening - I can't explain!
Something inside me, a breath-taking pain
Devours and consumes me
And drives me insane!

Suddenly
Uncontrolled
Something is
Taking hold!

Suddenly
Agony
Filling me
Killing me!

Suddenly
Out of breath
What is this?
Is this death?

Suddenly
Look at me!
Can it be?
Who is this creature
That I see?

HYDE
Free!

____________________

Alive - Hyde

What is this feeling of power and drive
I've never known?
I feel alive!

Where does this feeling of power derive?
Making me know
Why I'm alive!

Like the night, it's a secret
Sinister, dark and unknown.
I do not know what I seek
Yet I'll seek it alone!

I have a thirst that I cannot deprive
Never have I felt so alive!

There is no battle I couldn't survive
Feeling like this, feeling alive!

Like the moon, an enigma
Lost and alone in the night!
Damned by some heavenly stigma
But blazing with light!

It's the feeling of being alive
Filled with evil, but truly alive!
It's a truth that cannot be denied
It's the feeling of being Edward Hyde!

Animals trapped behind bars at the zoo
Need to run rampant and free!
Predators live on the prey they pursue
This time the predator's me!

Lust - like a raging desire
Fills my whole soul with its curse!
Burning with primitive fire
Berserk and perverse!

Tonight I'll plunder heaven blind!
Steal from all the Gods!
Tonight I'll take from all mankind
Conquer all the odds!

And I feel I'll live on forever
With Satan himself by my side!
And I'll show the world
That tonight and forever
The name to remember's
The name Edward Hyde!

What a feeling to be so alive!
I have never seen me so alive!
Such a feeling of evil inside!
That's the feeling of being Edward Hyde!

Sympathy, Tenderness - Lucy

Sympathy, tenderness
Warm as the summer
Offer me their embrace.

Friendliness - gentleness
Strangers to my life
They are there in his face.

Goodness and sweetness
And kindness
Abound in this place...

I am in love with
The things that I see in his face...
It's a memory I know
Time will never erase.

Someone Like You - Lucy

I peer through windows
Watch life go by
Dream of tomorrow
And wonder why

The past is holding me
Keeping life at bay.
I wander lost in yesterday
Wanting to fly
But scared to try.

But if someone like you
Found someone like me
Then suddenly,
Nothing would ever be the same.

My heart would take wing
And I'd feel so alive!
If someone like you
Found me!

So many secrets
I long to share
All I have needed
Is someone there...

To help me see a world
I've never seen before
A love to open every door
To set me free
So I can soar!

For if someone like you
Found someone like me
Then suddenly,
Nothing would ever be the same!

There'd be a new way to live
A new life to love
If someone like you
Found me!

Oh, if someone like you
Found someone like me
Then suddenly,
Nothing would ever be the same!

My heart would take wing
And I'd feel so alive!
If someone like you
Loved me!
Loved me!
Loved me!

Dangerous Game - Hyde & Lucy

LUCY
I feel your fingers -
Cold on my shoulder -
Your chilling touch,
As it runs down my spine -
Watching your eyes
As they invade my soul -
Forbidden pleasures
I'm afraid to make mine...

At the touch of your hand
At the sound of your voice
At the moment your eyes meet mine
I am out of my mind
I am out of control
Full of feelings I can't define

HYDE
It's a sin with no name

LUCY
Like a hand in a flame

HYDE
And our senses proclaim

HYDE / LUCY
It's a dangerous game!

HYDE
A darker dream
That has no ending
That's so unreal
You believe that it's true.
A dance of death
Out of a mystery tale
The frightened princess
Doesn't know what to do!

Will the ghosts go away?

LUCY
No -

HYDE
Will she will them to stay?

LUCY
No -

HYDE
Either way, there's no way to win!

LUCY
All I know is I'm lost
And I'm counting the cost
My emotions are in a spin.
I don't know who to blame...

HYDE
It's a crime and a shame!

LUCY
But it's true all the same

HYDE / LUCY
It's a dangerous game!

No one speaks
Not one word
But what words are in our eyes.

LUCY
Silence speaks

HYDE
Silence speaks

LUCY
Loud and clear

HYDE
Loud and clear!

HYDE / LUCY

All the words

HYDE
We don't want to hear.

LUCY
We want to hear.

HYDE / LUCY
At the touch of your hand
At the sound of your voice
At the moment your eyes meet mine
I am losing my mind
I am losing control
Fighting feelings I can't define.

LUCY
It's a sin with no name

HYDE
No remorse and no shame -
Fire, fury and flame!

LUCY
Cos the Devil's to blame!

BOTH
And the Angels proclaim...
It's a dangerous game!

Facade (Reprise) - The Spider & Ensemble

If you live around here,
Lotsa people, I fear,
Will make promises
They will not honour, my dear.
An' the truth is,
You end up getting scarred!

There's a beast at the door,
An' he's wild and he's free,
But we don't let him in,
'Cause we don't want to see
What is lurking
Right behind the facade!

A New Life - Lucy

A new life
What I wouldn't give
To have a new life!
One thing I have learned
As I go through life
Nothing is for free along the way.

A new start
That's the thing I need
To give me new heart
Half a chance in life
To find a new part
Just a simple role that I can play.

A new hope
Something to convince me
To renew hope.
A new day
Bright enough
To help me find my way.

A new chance
One that maybe has
A touch of romance.
Where can it be?
The chance for me?

A new dream
I have one
I know that very few dream.
I would like to see
That overdue dream
Even though
It never may come true.

A new love
Though I know
There's no such thing
As true love
Even so,
Although I never knew love,
Still I feel
That one dream is my due!

A new world
This one thing
I want to ask of you, world
Once - before it's time
To say Adieu, world
One sweet chance
To prove the cynics wrong!

A new life
More and more I'm sure
As I go through life,
Just to play the game
And to pursue life
Just to share its pleasures
And belong
That's what I've been here for
All along
Each day's a brand new life!

Confrontation - Jekyll & Hyde

JEKYLL
Lost in the darkness
Silence surrounds you.
Once there was morning
Now endless night.

I will find the answer.
I'll never desert you -
I promise you this -
Till the day that I...

HYDE
Do you really think
That I would ever let you go?
Do you think I'd ever set you free?
If you do, I'm sad to say
It simply isn't so
You will never get away from me!

JEKYLL
All that you are
Is a face in the mirror
I close my eyes and you'll disappear!

HYDE
I'm what you face
When you face in the mirror
Long as you live, I will still be here!

JEKYLL
All that you are
Is the end of a nightmare
All that you are is a dying scream!
After tonight,
I shall end this demon dream!

HYDE
This is not a dream, my friend
And it will never end!
This one is the nightmare that goes on!
Hyde is here to stay,
No matter what you may pretend
And I'll flourish long after you're gone!

JEKYLL
Soon you will die
And my silence will hide you!
You cannot choose but to lose control!

HYDE
You can't control me!
I live deep inside you!
Each day you'll feel me devour your soul!

JEKYLL
I don't need you to survive as you need me
I'll become whole as you dance with death!
And I'll rejoice as you breathe your final breath!

HYDE
I'll live inside you forever!

JEKYLL
No!

HYDE
With Satan himself by my side!

JEKYLL
No!

HYDE
And I know that now and forever
They'll never be able to separate
Jekyll from Hyde!

JEKYLL
Can't you see
It's over now?
It's time to die!

HYDE
No, not I!
Only you!

JEKYLL
If I die,
You die too!

HYDE
You'll die in me
I'll be you!

JEKYLL
Damn you, Hyde!
Set me free!

HYDE
Can't you see?
You are me!

JEKYLL
No!
Deep inside!

HYDE
I am you!
You - are - Hyde!

JEKYLL
No, never!

HYDE
Yes, forever!

JEKYLL
God damn you, Hyde!
Take all your evil deeds
And rot in hell!

HYDE
I'll see you there, Jekyll!

JEKYLL
Never!
