Beauty Of The Beast - The Damned

Flickering, the shadows fall across my eyes

Across the walls

Time engulfs me once more

I’m in the place and I’m enthralled

This mists that creep, the hound that howls

The lightning illuminates the towers

Is it only I can see

The beauty of the beast?

(Your magic never ceased)

With quickening pulse what lies behind the door

A curious step retreats once more

The creature with a darkened soul

A story of the Damned unfolds

Bela, Boris, Basil, Lon, Lorre, Vincent, now all gone

Looming pallid on the screen

The beauty of the beast

Your magic never ceased

And now though a curtain has been drawn

You go on forever as before…
