Confrontation- Jekyll & Hyde 1997 Original Broadway Cast Recording
[Jekyll]
Lost in the darkness
Silence surrounds you
Once there was morning
But now endless night
I will find the answer
I'll never desert you
I promise you this
'Til 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 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 feel me
Devour your soul!
[Jekyll]
I don't need you
To survive like you need me
I'll become whole
As you dance with death!
And I'll rejoice
When 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 and 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]
Goddamn you, Hyde!
Take all you evil deeds
And rot in hell!
[Hyde]
I'll see you there, Jekyll!
[Jekyll]
Never!
