about

Sung by The Dragon (which is played by the ensemble) during the final confrontation.

lyrics

Look in the dark and you don't bat an eye
Ignore your heartbeat, ignore your fear
You wouldn't escape even if you could try
Because your whole life had led you here.
You know that the answers lay ahead
But will you survive or end up--

You think that you’ve grown, but you fear the proof
Held back by the innocence of youth
So you either will hide what’s inside
Or you can look in my eyes and I promise you’ll see the truth

Quickly look up, so you can’t be surprised
Only to trip on the road below
Bandage up your mistakes but they can’t be disguised
Tear off the mask, let the damage show
Your fear of what you can’t be has held you down
Let go of the anchor, swim or drown

You think that you’ve grown, but you fear the proof
Held back by the innocence of youth
So you either will hide what’s inside
Or you can look in my eyes and I promise you’ll see the truth

If you look in my eyes.
I promise you’ll see the truth.

Look in my eyes.
I promise you’ll see the truth.
