I'll sing these words to you
I hope they will ring true
They're not some magic chimes
To cover up my crimes
Annette, of this I'm sure
Imagination's strong
And reason's song is weak and thin
We don't have long
I stood upon a cliff
A deep abyss below
Compelled to look, I tried
To fight it off, God knows I tried
This horrid urge to look below
But half-horrified and half-relieved
I cast my eyes toward the abyss
The dark abyss
I heard a ringing in my ears
I knew my death knell's ugly sound
The overbearing urge to gaze
Into the deep abyss, the haze
So strong the yearning for the fall
Imagination's strong
And reason's song is weak and thin
We don't have long
I'll never sing again
Shunning all lights at night
I'll never sing again
Smashing every lamp I see
I'll never sing again
Living in full darkness
I'll never sing again
A vampire forever
Annette, no!
No, no
Annette
Annete
No
I sang these words to you (can I forgive what you have done?)
I hope that they'd ring true (and will I ever forgive Mom?)
Imagination is so strong (her deadly poison I became)
And reason's song is never strong (merely a child to exploit)
Imagination is so strong (forgive you both?)
And reason's song (forget you both?)
So faint and shrill (to take that oath?)
I stood above the deep abyss (to take that oath?)
Why should I now forgive? Why should I now forget?
I can never forgive! I can never forget!
Both of you were using me for your own ends
For your own ends, not an ounce of shame
The two of you, you're both to blame
I wish that both of you were gone
Wish you were gone!
Wish you were gone! (No, don't blame Ann!)
Wish you were gone! (Annette that's wrong)
Both of you gone! (No, don't blame Ann!)
But is forgiveness the sole way (this horrid urge to look below)
When all has gone so far astray? (God knows I tried to fight it off)
Extract the poison from one's heart (half-horrified and half-relieved)
And from one's soul, I can't be sure (I cast my eyes down the abyss)
Forgive the two of you or not? I take this oath (sympathy for the dark abyss)
Forgive you both? I take this oath (sympathy for the dark abyss)
I take this oath, forgive you both or forget you both? (don't cast your eyes)
I must be strong (down the abyss), I must be strong
Time's up!
No contact!
Now, you have nothing to love
Why can't I love you? Can't I love you?
Now, you have nothing to love
Can't I love you, Annette?
No, not really, Daddy, it's sad but it's true
Now you have nothing to love
Annette, my Annette
Never cast your eyes down the abyss
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye
