Devil in the Belfry

Tobias Sammet

I dropped off in the shadows they lead over 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

--[Chorus]--

Riding high
The devil on the crest
For all the world to see - forevermore

I am I - the devil in the belfry
I'll be glorified - forevermore

--[Chorus]--

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 a scar
'Cause I've drawn the curtain

**[Chorus]**

Into the opera like moths to the flame
Spellbind their senses to follow the hero

**[Chorus]**X2
