BALLROOM
Music by Jim Steinman, original
German lyrics by Michael Kunze.
Von Krolock:
Welcome brothers
To this room.
Last time
We met here,
Our meal was a farmer,
Emaciated and pale.
You were sorrowful
But I said to you,
"When one year is meagre,
The next year will be rich."
We, who live eternally,
Are consumed by an addiction to fresh blood.
Do we ever have enough?
Vampires:
We never had enough!
Von Krolock:
Every victim that we feed on
Increases our number
Do we ever have enough?
Vampires:
We never have enough!
Nothing fills us up
The craving is never quiet.
The emptiness in us
Grows every day.
The fear of emptiness
Follows us all the time.
Von Krolock:
But I am your hope!
As I predicted,
A guest has arrived
Adorned and ready
To devote herself to the darkness.
A beauty with eyes of the night
An enchanted star child,
Tender like the wind
And ready for me,
Casts a spell over our midnight ball!
But she belongs only to me!
Don't worry! I thought of you as well.
Since last night
Here in my labyrinth,
And designated for you,
Two mortals have been damned to stay!
Damned!
Reprise: God Is Dead
Vampires:
God is dead
He will no longer be sought
We are cursed to live eternally
It draws us nearer to the sun
But we fear the light.
We believe only lies
Despise sacrifice.
What we don't hate,
We don't love.
Reprise: Total Eclipse
Vampires:
She has awoken to life!
Forever's gonna start tonight.
Forever's gonna start tonight.
Von Krolock:
You set out
To lose your heart,
Now you're losing your mind.
Sarah and von Krolock:
Total eclipse
A sea of emotion
And no land.
Sarah:
Once I believed
In the bright spell of love
Von Krolock:
Now it's shattering your world.
Sarah and von Krolock:
Total eclipse,
We're falling and nothing can hold us.
