"Twisted Every Way" lyrics - ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER

[RAOUL]
We have all been blind-
And yet the answer is staring us in the face
This could be the chance to ensnare our clever friend

[ANDRE, spoken]
We're listening

[FIRMIN, spoken]
Go on

[RAOUL, sung]
We shall play his game
Perform his work, but remember we hold the ace
For, if Ms. Daae sings, he is certain to attend

[ANDRE]
We are certain the doors are barred

[FIRMIN]
We are certain the police are there

[RAOUL]
We are certain they're armed

[FIRMIN/ANDRE/RAOUL]
The curtain falls, his reign will end

[CHRISTINE, spoken]
Raoul, I'm frightened. Don't make me do this. It scares me. Don't put me through this ordeal by fire. He'll take me. I know. We'll be parted forever. He won't let me go. What I once used to dream, I now dread. If he finds me it won't ever end.?

[Sung:]
And he'll always be there, singing songs in my head
He'll always be there, singing songs in my head

[RAOUL]
You said yourself-he was nothing but a man
Yet while he lives, he will haunt us 'til we're dead

[CHRISTINE]
Twisted every way, what answer can I give?
Am I to risk my life to win the chance to live?
Can I betray the man who once inspired my voice?
Do I become his prey? Do I have any choice?
He kills without a thought. He murders all that's good
I know I can't refuse, and yet, I wish I could
Oh God, if I agree, what horrors wait for me
In this, the Phantom's opera?

[RAOUL]
Christine, Christine, don't think that I don't care
But every hope, and every prayer rests on you now

[PHANTOM]
Seal my fate tonight
I hate to have to cut the fun short
But the joke's wearing thin
Let the audience in
Let my opera begin!
