lyrics

One chance for happiness. One chance that I would gladly take
to put aside the grief and find hope in the
smile of an angelic face with brains and wit to match.
This could be the one in a world where secrets held no sway.
She loves the man but hates the spider;
half of what I am is a life that I keep hidden from the sun.
But she stands bathed in light, an innocent in a fallen world.
So, let the girl go.

What do you want? What are you after?
Your son lies dying, but here you are.:
a failure as a man and as a father.
Your son lies dying while you nurse a rivalry.

If this is between you and me, then let the girl go.
This time you've gone too far.

Would you pretend to be free of sin?
You ruined my name, drove me to the edge.
And when it comes to the end:
you made me like this.

I won't be corrupted,
and I won't listen to your lies.
You know exactly where I stand,
and this is where I draw the line.

But if you draw enough lines,
you'll create a prison. And In time,
you'll feel only regret, when
her corpse is in the Hudson.

I swear that if you hurt the girl,
you won't live to see the night.
I have enough blood on my head,
and this time I'll make things right.

Would you pretend to be free of sin?
You ruined my name, drove me to the edge.
And when it comes to the end...
You made me like this.

She is the world, and I'm the savior.
She is the world, and I'll protect her. (I'll make this right.)
I'll save the world. (I'll save it.)
I'll save the world. (I'll save it.)
I'll save the world. (I'll save it.)
I'll save the world. (I'll save the girl.)

An angel cast from heaven, a smile frozen on her lips.
I hold her in my arms and know she'll never frown again.

Fall into sleep.
Fall into sleep.
An angel with no wings
falling to sleep.

Before the sunset, I'll make you pay.
Before the sunset, I'll see you dead.
Inhuman monster, I'll make you pay.
Before the sunset, I'll fill your grave.
