The Monster Inside of Me (The Count: the Musical)

DRACULA:
WHAT SHALL I DO? WHAT SHALL I SAY?
NOTHING WILL EVER BEE THE SAME.
NO MEANING LINES. NO SCRIPT INFRONT OF MY EYES.
WHAT IS THIS MEANING … OF LIFE?

THERE IS A SIDE THAT HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN
A SIDE OF ME , YOU’D NEVER WOULD DREAM
THERE IS A BEAST HIDING IN MY HEART
SO PROSPERTORIOUS, SO STRONG, SO DARK

THIS IS THE MONSTER INSIDE OF ME
THIS IS THE MATTER, THIS IS THE KEY
OPEN THE DOOR, AND YOU SHALL FIND
IM LOST IN THE DARKNESS, LOST THROUGHOUT TIME

NO MATTER HOW I LOOK AT YOU
WHAT I WILL SEE, WHAT I SHALL DO
THERE IS A CHOICE, THAT MUST BE MADE
THIS IS THE MOMENT, THIS IS THE DAY

MARISHKA:
OH, VLADISLAUS
YOU ARE THE SERPANT OF LIGHT

ALEERA:
THE TERROR OF SCREAMS

VERONA:
THE MASTER OF NIGHT

DRACULA:
THERE IS A BATTLE THAT I HAVE TO FIGHT
OPEN THE DOOR, AND YOU SHALL FIND
IM LOST IN THE DARKNESS, LOST IN THE NIGHT

Daniel - This is a poem that I can certainly relate to for I once lived a very dark life - I manufactured Meth most of my life and I have spent years in the pen over it - I once thought of myself as a Raven Mocker, which is a modern day wizard - While serving a SHU term I started writing poetry which lead me to the Lord - The true depths of darkness is a very dangerous place be careful in your journeys for it is very easy to end up consumed and lost, very interesting & enjoyable poem, mj
