Here I stand
Helpless and left for dead
Close your eyes
So many days go by
Easy to find what's wrong
Harder to find what's right
I believe in you
I can show you that I can see right through
All those empty lies I
Wont stay long
In the world so wrong!
Say goodbye
As we dance with the devil tonight
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
As we dance with the devil tonight.
Trembling
Crawling across my skin
Feeling your cold dead eyes
Stealing the life of mine
I believe in you
I can show you that I can see right through
All those empty lies I
Wont last long
In the world so wrong!
Say goodbye
As we dance with the devil tonight
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
As we dance with the devil tonight.
Hold on!
Hold on!
Say goodbye
As we dance with the devil tonight
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
As we dance with the devil tonight.
Hold on!
Hold on!
He stood on the edge of a great battlefield
Here I stand
They had abandoned him to face this alone
Helpless and left for dead
The Dark Lord came striding up to him, Death Eaters flanking his sides, Severus Snape on the right-handed side of the man.
He closed his eyes
Close your eyes
It had been so long…
So many days go by
His confusion of the past years still raged.
Easy to find what's wrong
Was it right to love the man who had betrayed everything?
Harder to find what's right
And even before that, had it been right, with the man his professor? The man, who hated him?
I believe in you
Yes. He said silently. Yes.
I can show you that I can see right through
All those empty lies I
What did it matter? When both were going to die anyway? It didn't.
Wont stay long
He would leave
In the world so wrong!
Of his own accord, he would walk away.
Those nights, so long ago…
Say goodbye
When he cared not for the conflicting emotions inside. Only for his hunger. Desire. Need.
As we dance with the devil tonight
He had thrown himself with a line that carried only what he craved.
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
And had give himself away
As we dance with the devil tonight.
To that man, so long ago, and to his emotions, so hard to control.
Trembling
He had lay there, full of nerves, that first time.
Crawling across my skin
Gooseflesh as the man's hands had ran over his entire body. Moans as the man showed him what he did not even know he wanted.
Feeling your cold dead eyes
At the moment, he hadn't cared. He allowed himself to be taken. All of himself.
Stealing the life of mine
And then he had cared. Once his lust was sated, he knew it was more than just that simple.
I believe in you
So he wanted more.
I can show you that I can see right through
And had tried to obtain it.
All those empty lies I
He had failed.
Wont last long
And now he left
In the world so wrong!
But as he looked at the man, he conveyed all his thoughts in a second, and he saw, to his satisfaction, startled eyes beyond the mask.
Say goodbye
He had let himself go…
As we dance with the devil tonight
Given away…
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
And he'd do it again
As we dance with the devil tonight.
Just one more time
Hold on!
He had clung to the man not only with his body, but his soul as well. And he had held on until now.
Hold on!
Say goodbye
"Goodbye," he addressed Snape alone, but the Death Eaters laughed and Voldemort hissed a crucio in his direction.
Snape didn't laugh.
As we dance with the devil tonight
Harry played a wicked game.
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
But he stared long into those hateful red eyes
As we dance with the devil tonight.
Until he was at last allowed to stand.
Turning his back
Hold on!
He said goodbye.
Hold on!
