Devil In the Belfry
I dropped off in the shadows
The lead of a tragedy
I open my eyes, blind by the spotlight
And what do I see?
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
I will forget her but I won't forgive
The curtain has fallen, behold the messiah
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
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?
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
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
Into the opera like moths to the flame
Spellbind their senses to follow the hero
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
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
The lead of a tragedy
I open my eyes, blind by the spotlight
And what do I see?
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
I will forget her but I won't forgive
The curtain has fallen, behold the messiah
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
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?
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
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
Into the opera like moths to the flame
Spellbind their senses to follow the hero
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
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
