Avantasia Devil In The Belfry Lyrics

Devil In The Belfry Lyrics

I dropped off in the shadows they lead over tragedy

I open my eyes - blind
by the spotlight

and what do I see?

Pushed by ambition been granted
admission

to the hall of acclaim

She denied your affection

Now listen the whole world is screaming your name



I will forget
her

but I won't forgive

The curtain has fallen

behold the
messiah



--[Chorus]--



Riding high

the devil on
the crest

for all the world to see - forevermore



I am I -
the devil in the belfry

I'll be glorified - forevermore



--[Chorus]--



Is it a sin to learn to be able

to live
without love?

And is it a sin to put love under will

and control
from above?



Devil in my fingers - pleasure at my feet

Mind
out of sight

The shadow I'll cast shall darken her world

And ghost
her at night



With each song you'll die

A little for me

It won't leave a scar

'Cause I've drawn the curtain



**[Chorus]**



Into the opera like moths to the flame

Spellbind their senses to follow the hero



**[Chorus]**X2
