Confrontation〈對峙〉
Jekyll:
Lost in the darkness,
Silence surrounds you.
Once there was morning,
Now endless night.
I will find the answer.
I’ll never desert you.
I promise you this
Till the day that I...
Hyde:
Do you really think
That I would ever let you go?
Do you think I’d ever set you free?
If you do, I’m sad to say,
It simply isn’t so.
You will never get away from me!
Jekyll:
All that you are is a face in the mirror!
I close my eyes and you’ll disappear!
Hyde:
I’m what you face when you face in the mirror!
Long as you live, I will still be here!
Jekyll:
All that you are is the end of a nightmare!
All that you are is a dying scream!
After tonight, I shall end this demon dream!
Hyde: 　　
This is not a dream, my friend,
And it will never end!
This one is the nightmare that goes on!
Hyde is here to stay,
No matter what you may pretend,
And I’ll flourish long after you’re gone!
Jekyll:
Soon you will die. And my silence will hide you!
You cannot choose but to lose control!
Hyde:
You can’t control me! I live deep inside you!
Each day you’ll feel me devour your soul!
Jekyll:
I don’t need you to survive,
As you need me!
I’ll become whole as you dance with death!
And I’ll rejoice as you breathe your final breath!
Hyde:
For I’ll live inside you forever!
Jekyll:
No!
Hyde:
With Satan himself by my side!
Jekyll:
No!
Hyde:
And I know that, now and forever,
They’ll never be able to separate
Jekyll from Hyde!
Jekyll:
Can’t you see it’s over now?
It’s time to die!
Hyde:
No, not I! Only you!
Jekyll:
If I die, you die, too!
Hyde:
You’ll die in me, I’ll be you!
Jekyll:
Damn you, Hyde!
Set me free!
Hyde:
Can’t you see?
You are me!
Jekyll:
No!
Deep inside!
Hyde:
I am you!
You are Hyde!
Jekyll:
No, never!
Hyde:
Yes, forever!
Jekyll:
God damn you, Hyde!
Take all your evil deeds
And rot in Hell!
Hyde:
I’ll see you there, Jekyll!
Jekyll:
Never!
Finale〈終曲〉
At the end of the day
They don’t mean what they say,
They don’t say what they mean,
They don’t ever come clean,
And the answer
Is it’s all a façade!
Man is not one, but two.
He is evil and good,
And he walks the fine line
We’d all cross if we could!
It’s a nightmare
We can never discard,
So we stay on our guard
Though we love the façade.
What’s behind the façade?
Look behind the façade!
