Introduction:
Bb7M
The future sleeping in her form
C Bb
Dare I free her from her death?

Quicken now her pulse and breath

And make her once again reborn?

Why does the knife quake in my fingers?

An angel banished into hell?

I've come too far to turn back now

The darkness will not be denied

Is ready to create his bride!
Spoken interlude

Do not delay, Victor

For I will be ever watching and when your labors are through

I shall appear to claim what is mine
Heed my wishes. You may be my creator, but I am your master-
Bb Dm
I've come too far to turn back now
Bb Dm
There's nothing left I need decide

I am the modern Prometheus
C Bb A Dm
Ready to create his bride

What heresy have you devised?
Is this the science you conceived?

With nature's every law defied
Gm Em A
What good could ever be achieved?

The power of life and death rests in my hands, Henry
I dared before Ingolstadt, but this time will be different!

Soon you'll see I'm justified!

I am the modern Prometheus

Your fate will be the same as his!

A great discovery is near
Lesser men may wait behind

Paralyzed of heart and mind

But I am not afraid to dare

This abomination is exposed and brought to an end!
F Bb Em
No!
