Sympathy for the Abyss

Russell Mael, Ron Mael

[HENRY, spoken]
"Annette, we don't have long."

[HENRY]
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
Imaginations 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 death knell's ugly sound
Thе overbearing urge to gazе
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

[ANNETTE]
I will never sing again
Shunning the lights at night
I will never sing again
Smashing every lamp I see
I will never sing again
Living in full darkness
I will never sing again
A vampire forever

[HENRY, spoken]
Annette! No. No. Annette

[HENRY (ANNETTE)]
I sang these words to you (Can I forgive what you have done?)
I hope that they'll 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 dark abyss (To take that oath)

[ANNETTE (HENRY)]
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 poison from one's heart (Half horrified and half relieved)
And from one's soul (And cast my eyes)
I can't be sure (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)
Forgive you both or forget you both (Don't cast your eyes)
I must be strong (Down the abyss)
I must be strong

[HENRY]
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye, Annette
Goodbye
