(NOTE): This is my first Death Note installment, but my second time taking a song and changing the lyrics to fit anime characters. This time, it's an Andrew Lloyd Webber song from Phantom of the Opera. Again this is just for fun!! And the characters are L and Kira.
Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note or Phantom of the Opera!
BTW: When you get to the part that, in the original, sounds like: "The phaaaaantom of the op-er-a is there...inside my mind!" it goes like this:" And IIIII will claim up-on-my-life that now...justice is mine!" Tell me if you get confused ;).
Song: "Phantom of the Opera":
KIRA:
Transgressors thrive abound;
Their sins are high.
And by my soul, I swear
They all shall die.
For in my hands I hold
Their lives of crime.
And I will claim upon my life, that now, justice is mine!
L:
Self-righteous murderer,
Such nerve and gall.
Audacious child you seem,
But I am Law.
In vain you hide from me,
I know your mind.
And I will claim upon my life, that now, justice is mine!
KIRA:
So seems this intellect
Has met his match.
It's you I'll hunt for now...
L:
It's you I'll catch.
KIRA/L:
I vow I'll see, one day,
Your just demise.
And I will claim upon my life, that now, justice is mine!
L:
One common goal we seek:
Each other's name.
Our skills and aptitudes...
KIRA:
They seem the same.
KIRA/L:
So strange our destinies
Should intertwine.
And I will claim upon my life, that now, justice is mine!
(NOTE): I've gone back and forth on this so many times, and it might change again cuz I'm not 100 percent happy with it. But what do you think so far :)?
PS: Seriously, try listening to the music and putting these lyrics in place of the real ones. It flows so much better with music than just reading it, though I thought this might make a good poem by itself ;P. And if you liked this, I have another song for Naruto called "Orochi's Song" that is set to the tune "Cruella De Ville."
