The Masque Of Red Death
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A plague has assaulted the prince's land
He locked it outside the castle gate
Only the wealthy were safe this way
As they began to worry about their fate
"I've seen them die, heard their cry
And watched you flee
Now I arrived, brought my scythe
Red death is near... "
The prince ordered a ball to ease their minds
Seven rooms filled with colorful tones
But all there present, dressed in masks
Avoided that room - the red & black one
From inside that room the clock made its sound
The music stopped, their hearts turned to ice
And the ball goes on and on, into the night
Until the red guest reveals his disguise
"Who dares insult us with this blasphemous mockery?
Seize him, unmask him and bring him here"
The guest walks calmly towards the other room
No one dares to reach him, they all show fear
The prince, with a dagger, chases him through the door
The door to the black room, they all died instantly
"And darkness, decay and the red death
Held illimitable dominion over
All. "
