Avantasia, Jørn Lande, Henjo Richter - Devil In The Belfry lyrics

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 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
