lyrics

Here, at the end
I look into her eyes.
Only in death
Can I shed my disguise;
It was never you
That I despised.

When I was a student
Your father was cruel
And arrogant, lazy
I see him in you!
Protected by love of your mother,
But another loved her too...

Always,
Lost in my heart.
Always,
I played well the part
Of the cold and uncaring detractor…
Just an actor,
Watch me bow!

I can still hear her
Like a voice in my head…
How can I give your last remains
To the dead?
Take the tears I’ve cried
For the truth I hide;
A sacrificial lamb
Kept alive to die...
Why was I so blind?
While you were a student
I made my mistakes,
But I tried to protect you
Whatever it takes!
But the man that I trusted to save you
Only raised you for your fate!

Always,
Lost in my heart.
Always,
I played well the part
Of the monster surrounded by cutthroats,
Trusted turncoat,
Breathing lies!
I’m the coward who failed to protect her
Just a spectre I despise…

So now at the end you see me,
Lament can’t absolve all my crimes.
Unbreakable vows that I have sworn,
Unspeakable acts, self-maligned.
I’ve lied to conceal the best of
This Death Eater spy I pretend...

Take my memories,
Take all of me, cause
Everything comes to an end.
