Lyrics Transformation - Frank Wildhorn

Transformation

No, there is no choice
I must put aside the fears I feel inside;
There’s no place to hide
So it comes to this:
One last final chance for me to take
Now everything I’ve fought for is at stake
Like a warning light, glimmering in red;
Like crimson bloodshed, shimmering in red
Beautiful and strange, see the colors change before my eyes…
See how they dance and they sparkle like diamonds at night
Leading out of the darkness and into the light!
(spoken)
11:58 PM.
I have consumed 10 centiliters of formula HJ7.
Salty, bitter taste.
Stings the tongue.
Warm in the gullet.
Heat spreading strongly through my
veins.
A slight feeling of euphoria.
Light-headedness.
No noticeable behavioral
differences
I must be wise
I must try to analyze each change in me;
Everything I see…
How will it be?
Will I see the world through different eyes?
Now the die is cast!
Nothing left to do…
Time alone can prove my theories true…
Show the world--
(spoken)
My God!
What’s this?
Something is happening-
I can’t explain-!
(sung)
Something inside me
A breathtaking pain!
Devours and consumes me
And drives me insane!
(prolonged scream, pained noises)
Suddenly-
Uncontrolled-!
Something is-
Taking hold!
Suddenly-
Agony!
Filling me!
Killing me?!
Suddenly
Out of breath-!
What is this?
Is this death?!
Suddenly
Look at me!
Can it be?
Who is this… creature… that I see?
Free!
(laughter)
