INTRO:
Look into the sins of your past
Love as if today were your last
Better times have slipped away, I'm lost beneath the waves
Nothing left to save...
EXPOSITION:
SAVAGE CRIME! IT WAS NOT YET HER TIME!
FOR WHOM THE TOWER PEALS ONE FINAL MOURNING CHIME!
FOR THE SURVIVORS.....
SCENE I (present time, evening):
Speak to me, before my fate is reckoned
Comfort me, they'll arrive at any second
Six o'clock, and I got no doubt the gang is out for
BLOOD IS ON YOUR HANDS!
OUR OWN, KILLED IN THE FIGHT!
YOU'LL DIE TONIGHT!
SCENE II (flashback to two days ago):
O, (THERE HE IS!)
Maria, (WHY IS HE ON OUR BLOCK?)
Morte mia (TRACK HIM DOWN, MAKE HIM BLEED! WE'LL TAKE HIM!)
I'll be waiting patiently (WE'LL BEAT HIM DOWN, TAKE HIM TO THE GROUND)
Come on out and dance with me, (THE DEVIL)
The night is young,
And so are we!
[guitar solo]
O Maria, cara mia,
And I know the deck's stacked against us,
Even though it feels so right...
Forbidden is our love,
Our families, divided from above.
Your brothers will see through the lie;
Tomorrow... they won't ask why...
SCENE III (yesterday):
[piano intro]
O Maria...
Far away now...
Will I ever see your smile?
As night turns to day,
I beg you to stay,
I'm down, down on my knees here...
I'm the darkness, you're the starlight,
And I'm burnin' up in here, I (MY HEART WILL)
Die every day, when you hide away
I don't wanna fear... (THEIR RIVALRY)
So even though they may discover us,
I'm never givin' you up
And if they try to tell me what to do...
(I LOVE HER!)
I'll kill them! (I LOVE HER!)
I'll kill them! (LEAVE US ALONE!)
Down to the last!
No!
O (COME GET ME)
Maria, (UPSET ME)
I need her, for my own (COME CAST A STONE)
[guitar/piano solo... commence headbanging]
SCENE IV (this morning):
STAR-CROSSED LOVERS
LAUGHING AT THE TRUTH,
EASY FORTUNES,
FOOLISH IN YOUTH, HA-HA-HA
AFTER ALL IS SAID AND DONE,
YOU'LL BOTH BE ON THE RUN,
AND WE'LL FIND YOU
JUST WHAT WAS YOUR PLAN?
YOU ARROGANT MAN!
TI AMMAZZO, TI AMMAZZO, TI AMMAZZO!
INTRUSO!
(HE WAS WITH THE w****!)
CRETINO!
(SHOW HIM TO THE DOOR!)
FOLLOW HIM! CORNER HIM! MURDER HIM!
BEAT HIM DOWN! BEAT HIM UP!
SEND HIM TO HIS GRAVE!
Maria..........
DRACO, LOVE,
WE WERE NEVER MEANT TO LIVE THIS LIE!
Then I will die
Sooner than see you gone
I'm gonna go down swingin',
Ears are ringin'.....
[guitar solo]
SCENE V (this afternoon):
But I'm alive!! (AH-AH-AH-AH-AH-AH! HE'S STILL BREATHING)
MAKE HIM DEAD!
(HIT HIM IN THE HEAD!)
TAKE HIS LIFE!
(SOMEONE GET A KNIFE!)
Suddenly, (GET HIM!)
In a flash, (KILL HIM!)
I was up,
On my feet (STAB HIM!)
With a knife (DRILL HIM!)
Spun around
With a slash (PRESS HIM!)
In a split (GRILL HIM!)
Second of
Murderous (END HIM!)
Clarity, (SPILL HIM!)
I could see,
One by one, they stood before me!
Then, from the ground, came the most awful sound,
And I saw her then,
Maria lying there
Someone had stabbed her and
Her time was at an end,
And then I ran and ran and ran and RAN!
[guitar solo]
BLOOD ON THE STREET,
NOW YOUNG DRACO SHALL MEET WITH HIS FATE!!
ENDING (return to present time):
O Maria,
Now it's clear...
Broken through the pain and the fear
Before too long,
I'll be with... you.....
Look into the sins of your past
Love as if today were your last
Better times have slipped away, I'm lost beneath the waves
Nothing left to save...
