There's no peace in this dingy theatre
Make no mistake about it!
Only comedy subsided along tragedy
If I did everything to script, would you adore it?
Only us in this limbo, audience!
Pose me as you please, give me sentience!
Crooked mouths singing along in discordance
Misery to Heaven in the best sense!

Curtains stained a vivid red
Cover you from toe to head
Harmony ringing from every side
Shaming, booing our prelude
Leaving poison left unchewed
Why, when this cake was made just for you?

No such thing in this dreamy theatre
There's no rules for a Phantom
Only dizziness alongside total bliss
As those who provide anything that isn't tragic boredom
Only us in this love-loop, audience!
Mold me as you please, no more hesitance!
Crooked mouths singing along in discordance
Misery to pleasure in the best sense!

I ask you one thing: Are you willing to join our world's stage?
C'mon, where's your applause!
Quiet!
This theatre holds no comedy, no tragedy, it is bleak without you, dear audience!
So, I suppose, you must join!
Come join our show!

Do you believe in our garden?
Do you want to live in Eden?
With a lucky draw of cards
I've made a place in your
Eh? Ahem, welcome audience!

Praise me with your applause, my audience!
Hold me as you please, let the show commence!
Crooked mouths singing along, so wondrous!
Heaven-like pleasure in the best sense!

I take my bow, I'm a chef for you, my audience!
Criticize the feast, all at my expense!
Raise your hands, paint the stage red with roses!
Hell or heaven, either way, the best sense!
