[PHANTOM]
Down once more to the dungeons of my black despair!
Down we plunge to the prison of my mind!
Down that path into darkness, deep as hell!

Why, you ask, was I bound and chained
In this cold and dismal place?
Not for any mortal sin
But the wickedness of my abhorrent face!

[MOB]
Track down this murderer, he must be found!
Track down this murderer, he must be found!

[PHANTOM]
Hounded out by everyone!
Met with hatred everywhere!
No kind words from anyone!
No compassion anywhere!
Christine...

[PHANTOM, spoken]
Why? Why?

[MADAMER GIRY]
Your hand at the level of your eyes!
[RAOUL]
At the level of your eyes

[ENSEMBLE]
Your hand at the level of your eyes

[Instrumental]

[CHRISTINE]
Have you gorged yourself, at last, in your lust for blood?
Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?

[PHANTOM]
That fate which condemns me to wallow in blood
Has also denied me the joys of the flesh
This face—the infection which poisons our love

This face, which earned a mother's fear and loathing...
A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothing...

Pity comes too late
Turn around and face your fate
An eternity of this before your eyes!

[CHRISTINE]
This haunted face holds no horror for me now
It's in your soul that the true distortion lies
[PHANTOM]
Wait! I think, my dear, we have a guest!
Sir...

[CHRISTINE, spoken]
Raoul!

[PHANTOM]
This is indeed an unparalleled delight!
I had rather hoped that you would come
And now my wish comes true
You have truly made my night!

[CHRISTINE, spoken]
Let me go!

[RAOUL]
Free her!
Do what you like, only free her!
Have you no pity?

[PHANTOM]
Your lover makes a passionate plea!

[CHRISTINE]
Please, Raoul, it's useless!
[RAOUL]
I love her!
Does that mean nothing?
I love her!
Show some compassion...

[PHANTOM]
The world showed no compassion to me!

[RAOUL]
Christine, Christine, let me see her

[PHANTOM]
Be my guest, sir

Monsieur, I bid you welcome
Did you think that I would harm her?
Why would I make her pay, for the sins which are yours?

Order your fine horses now!
Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes!
Nothing can save you now, except, perhaps, Christine
Start a new life with me, buy his freedom with your love!
Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death!
This is the choice, this is the point of no return!

[CHRISTINE]
The tears I might have shed for your dark fate
Grow cold, and turn to tears of hate!

[RAOUL]
Christine, forgive me, please, forgive me

[RAOUL, CHRISTINE]
I did it all for you, and all for nothing (Farewell, my fallen idol and false friend)

[CHRISTINE, PHANTOM]
We had such hopes, and how those hopes are shattered (Too late for ​turning back, too late for prayers and useless pity)

[RAOUL, PHANTOM]
Say you love him and my life is over (All hope of cries for help, no point in fighting)
Either way you choose, he has to win (For either way you choose, you cannot win)

[PHANTOM]
So, do you end your days with me
Or do you send him to his grave?

[RAOUL]
Why make her lie to you, to save me?

[CHRISTINE, PHANTOM, RAOUL]
Angel of Music, who ​deserves this? (Past the point of no return, the final ​threshold) (For pity's sake, Christine, say no)
Don't throw your life away for my sake! (His life is now the prize which you must earn!)
Why do you curse ​mercy? (I fought so hard to free you...)

[PHANTOM, CHRISTINE]
You've passed the point of ​no return (Angel of Music, you deceived me)

[CHRISTINE, spoken]
I gave you my mind blindly

[PHANTOM, spoken]
You try my patience, make your choice

[CHRISTINE]
Pitiful creature of darkness, what kind of life have you known?
God give me courage to show you
You are not alone

[ENSEMBLE]
Track down this murderer, he must be found

[PHANTOM, spoken]
Take her, forget me, forget all of this
Leave me alone, forget all you've seen

[ENSEMBLE]
Hunt out this animal who runs to ground

[PHANTOM, spoken]
Go now, don't let them find you
Take the boat, swear to me, never to tell

[ENSEMBLE]
Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know

[PHANTOM, spoken]
The secret you know, of the Angel in hell

[ENSEMBLE]
The Phantom of the Opera is there, deep down inside

[PHANTOM]
Go now, go now, and leave me

Masquerade, paper faces on parade
Masquerade, hide your face, so the world will never find you
Christine, I love you...

[CHRISTINE]
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime

[RAOUL]
Say the word and I will follow you

[CHRISTINE]
Share each day with me, each night, each morning...

[PHANTOM]
You alone can make my song take flight
It's over now, the music of the night
