Phantom Of The Opera: Down once more / Track down thsi murderer

Phantom:
Down once more to the dungons of my black dispair
Down we plunge to the prisions of my mind
Down that path into darkness deep as HELL
Why you ask was I bound in chains in this cold and dismal place
Not for any mortal sin
But the wickedness of my abhorrent face!
Various:
Track down this murderer he must be found
Track down this murderer he must be found
Phantom:
Hounded out by everyone
Met with hatred everywhere
No kind words from anyone
No compassion anywhere!
(spoken)
Christine. Why, why . . .?
Madame Giry:
Your hand at the level of your eyes....
Raoul:
Your hand at the level of your eyes....
Various:
Your hand at the level of your eyes....
Christine:
Have you gourged yourself at last in your lust for BLOOD
Am I now to be prey in your lust for FLESH
Phantom:
At fate which condems me
To wallow in blood
Has also denied me
The joys of the flesh
This face the infection
Which poisons our love
This face
Which earned
A mother's fear and loatheing
A mask
My first
Unfeeling scrap of clothing
Pity comes too late
Turn around and face your fate
An eternity of THIS
Before your eyes...
Christine:
This haunted face
Holds no horror for me now
It's in your soul
That the true distortion lies...
Phantom:
WAIT!
I think my dear
We have a guest!
Christine:
RAOUL!
Phantom:
Sir
This is indeed an unparrelled delight!
I
Had rather hoped
That you would come!
And now
My wish comes true
You have truly made me night
Raoul:
Free her!
Do what you like, only free her
Have you no pity?
Phantom:
Your lover makes a passionate plea.
Christine:
Please, Raoul, its useless.
Raoul:
I love her!
Does that mean nothing?
I love her!
Show some compassion!
Phantom:
The world showed no compassion to me!
Raoul:
Christine...
Christine...
Let me see her...
Phantom:
Be my guest, sir...
Monsieur, I bid you welcome!
Did you think that I would harm her?
Why would I make her pay
for the sins which are yours?
(Begins to tie Raoul to the gate)
Phantom: (Taunting as he ties Raoul's arms to the gate)
Order your fine horses now!
Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes!
Nothing can save you now... except for Christine!
(To Christine)
Start a new life with me!
Buy his freedom with your love!
Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death!
This is the choice!
This is the point of no return!
Christine:
The tears I might have shed
for your dark fate,
Grow cold and turn to tears
of hate!
Raoul:
Christine, forgive me, please forgive me.
I did it all for you, and all for nothing!
(The Phantom grabs more rope and wraps it around Raoul, and places a noose around his neck to hang him)
Christine:
Farewell, my fallen idol and false friend
We had such hopes, and now those hopes are shattered....
Phantom:
Too late for turning back, Too late for prayers and useless pity!
Raoul:
Say you love him, and my life is over!
Phantom:
All hope of cries of help,
No point in fighting!
For either way you choose, You cannot win!
Raoul:
Either way you choose, he has to win....
Phantom:
So do you end your days with me?
Or do you send him to his grave?
(Pulls the rope)
Raoul:
Why make her lie to you to save me?
Phantom:
Past the point of no return...
Christine:
Angel of Music . . .
Raoul:
For pity's sake, Christine say no!
Christine:
Who deserves this?
Phantom:
The final threshold...
Raoul:
Don't throw your life away for my sake!
Phantom:
His life is now the prize which you must earn!
Christine:
Why do you curse mercy?
Raoul:
I fought so hard to free you...
Christine:
Angel of Music...
Phantom:
You've passed the point of no return!
Christine:
...you deceived me...
[spoken]I gave you my mind blindly.
Phantom[spoken]:
You try my patience,
Make your choice!
(Pulls the rope)
Raoul: (Chokes and gags)
Christine:
Pitiful creature of darkness,
What kind of life have you known?
God give me courage to show you,
You are not alone!
(Christine kisses the Phantom passionately)
Mob:
Track down this
murderer, he must be found!
Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground!
Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know, the phantom of the opera is there, deep down below!
Phantom [spoken]:
Take her, forget me,
Forget all of this . . .
Leave me alone - forget all youve seen . . .
Go now - dont let them find you!
Take the boat, swear to me, never to tell
The secret you know, of the angel in hell!
[sung]Go now - GO NOW and leave me!
(Christine unties Raoul and they embrace each other before leaving)
(The music box starts playing and the Phantom sings to the melody )
Masquerade
Paper faces on parade . . .
Masquerade
Hide your face so the world will never find you . . .
Christine, I love you....
(Christine reaches out for his hand, opens
it and places a diamond ring into his palm. She closes his hand around the ring, she turns her back and returns to Raoul; they leave on the boat)
Christine (to Raoul):
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime
Raoul:
Say the word and I will follow you...
Christine:
Share each day with me, each night, each morning...
Phantom: (watching Christine and Raoul leave- Quietly)
You alone, can make my song take flight.
(loudly)
It's over now, the music of the night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(He picks up a candlestick holder and smashes all his mirrors. He smashes the last mirror which has an opening leading to a tunnel. He walks through it and a drape falls, covering the entrance.)
