Lestat: I cannot hide what I've become It's clear a mother knows her son Even though your sight grows dim, you see the pallor of my skin The blood red eyes sunk in my face You feel the chill in my embrace The gothic legend of your youth stands here tonight as God's own truth
Gabrielle: And from that truth I feel no fear Two kinds of death are present here Mine's the age-old act of dying But yours is like the phoenix rising Your mother's frail and feeble husk will soon be nothing more than dust So let's not dwell on wasted years My time is short, my choice is clear Make me as you are, tear the hands off clocks that tick away my final hours I want to rage against the light and leave the sun behind I want to feel the power of everlasting youth inside Take me, give me new life And we'll live beneath the stars Together and forever, I beg you Make me as you are
Lestat: This cursed gift with which I live I know not if it's mine to give I'm still a fledgling in this frame I've only killed when hunger reigned
Gabrielle: The risk is mine and if we fail I'll shake the devil by his tail. Oh blessed thoughts of sweet release from nagging nurse, and hovering priest. Make me as you are, tear the wings of angels that would lift me from your heart I want to dance beneath the moon and slip into the dark I want to feel the night awaken when I leave my mark Take me, give me new life And we'll live beneath the stars Together and forever, I beg you Make me, make me, Make me as you are,
both: Tear the hands off clocks that tick away my/your final hours We'll rage against the light and leave the sun behind And feel the power of everlasting youth inside
Gabrielle: Take me, give me new life
Both: And we'll live beneath the stars Together and forever,
