Clive Nolan - Deception lyrics

Jagman Amelia Darvas I presume? Amelia: I am… Jagman: My name is Lord Henry Jagman. I am an explorer, a philanthropist and above all a gentleman. I know something of your family history. You are of noble blood, you do not deserve to languish in this debtors prison. Amelia: Fate can be cruel, my Lord. But why are you here? Jagman: I am here to offer an honest little bargain I have at my disposal the means and will To set you free Amelia: You play with me sir. You trifle with my hopes. Jagman: Not at all – Crimes absolved… debts expunged! Amelia: What would be my part In this timely intervention? Jagman: Nothing more demanding Than simple information So – Tell me of the Labyrinth Where is it located and what can we expect of it Tell me of the Labyrinth Amelia: For this you'll set me free? Arrange for me to leave? Jagman: I will indeed – Crimes absolved… debts expunged! You have my word! Amelia: I have no choice but to trust you The Labyrinth is all I have to give It lies in a clearing called the “Crescent Moon” In the south of the Black Forest Where no one dares to live Amelia: So you must travel to the German Confederation. There are no clues as the paths that weave underground. That information dies with my father. Jagman: And this is all you can tell me? Amelia:' This is all, my Lord! Jagman: You fool – And how easy it is to manipulate fools. Amelia: I don't understand. Jagman: Then let me make it perfectly clear. Do you truly think I'd guarantee defence? Let you walk away despite the consequence Amelia: Under God, you are honour bound How could you throw this promise down? Jagman: Do not bore me with your talk of right and wrong There's a higher plan that I am working on Amelia: You have learned what you need from me Surely now you can set me free Amelia & Jagman: Only fools live by promises and dreams Jagman: There is no justice here Amelia & Jagman: That's the way it's always been Only fools choose to live by holy bonds Jagman: There can be no redemption Amelia & Jagman: We've stopped too far beyond Jagman: Hard to comprehend that I would truly ever Reach a point where I complete my life's endeavours Not long now, just the merest breath I will reign over life and d**h Amelia & Jagman: Only fools live by promises and dreams Jagman: There is no justice here Amelia & Jagman: That's the way it's always been Only fools choose to live by holy bonds Jagman: There can be no redemption Amelia: You have your answers Now I pray you grant me freedom And I will gladly travel far away from here I only want to leave these nightmares far behind me And live a quiet life for my remaining years Jagman: Well – I'm afraid to say your time on earth is short And soon your execution will prove All things can be bought Amelia: You are foul Oh so far beyond the pale By all things just it's you Should be languishing in goal Amelia & Jagman: Only fools live by promises and dreams Jagman: There is no justice here Amelia & Jagman: That's the way it's always been Only fools choose to live by holy bonds There can be no redemption here Jagman: I bid you farewell, Amelia Darvas!
