TRACK 26: AMEN Reprise

 

CREATURE: What hope has a being whose creator so desperately wishes to destroy it? That he would pursue it... even to his own death?

AT LAST OUR FINAL HOUR IS NIGH
WE'LL BOTH ATTAIN WHAT WE'VE SO LONG DESIRED
I'LL WATCH YOU BREATHE YOUR LAST AND DIE
AND THEN DESTROY MYSELF UPON OUR FUNERAL PYRE

VICTOR: I CANNOT DIE... AND NOR CAN YOU...

CREATURE: OUR TIME HAS COME!

VICTOR: ONE FINAL TASK REMAINS

CREATURE: THE GAME IS DONE!

VICTOR: YES, IT IS TRUE I HUNTED YOU
BUT I HAVE COME NOT OUT OF VENGEANCE BUT OF SHAME
I HAVE FOLLOWED YOU TO SEEK YOUR GRACE
TO FALL UPON YOUR MERCY AND ACCEPT THE BLAME
DAMN THE MAN WHO DOES NOT GIVE
HIS ALL TO HELP HIS SON TO LIVE
FORGIVE THIS FOOLISH FATHER...

I CAN HEAR... MY NAME...
BLACKENED... BY MY CRIME...
HAUNTING ME AND TAUNTING AS IT ECHOES THROUGH ALL TIME

CREATURE:

WHAT HAVE I DONE? HOW CAN THIS BE?
HOW CRUEL THE HAND OF FATE
TO TAKE TWO SOULS TOO BLIND TO SEE
AND GIVE THEM SIGHT TOO LATE

YOUR PEACE HAS COME...
YOU'LL SEARCH NO MORE
SOON I SHALL FOLLOW WHERE YOU GO
GO TO SLEEP... YOU'RE SAFE WITH ME
MAY THE DARKNESS SET US FREE

WALTON: He lifted Frankenstein into his arms as if he were his child, and carried him off, disappearing into the ice and darkness. Forever. Captain Robert Walton, in a letter to his sister... November 9th, 1793.
