Murderer’s Confession (Helena Landless)

Lyrics

[HELENA] You know the fire and the fury I can vent Thought you I'd idly wait while Neville you'd torment? With this, his one, his only chance to start anew You surely know by now I meant to murder you! Think you that I'm so blind as not to read your mind And watch you bait, manipulate each victim that you find And let you do to Neville what you did to Rosa Bud as well? I'll see you in Hell! Something within me snapped, I started to adapt Your game of sin to blame my twin, to kill and not be trapped I made of you the victim who would meet his end instead My one great flaw: twas Drood I saw! And you! You live! He's dead! But the night was far from bright Thick with wet and thunder Thatching fell, dispatched from Hell Is it yet a wonder? Could not see the arms of me Stretched out with scarf in hand Saw your coat and tied your throat Just like a deadly wedding band! I killed Drood! Not glad to, I had to! I will not be coy, I'm not filled with joy That I did destroy Rosa's darling boy In these late additions, there my be revealed Murderous admissions otherwise concealed Damn you all, I swear, for warning you had had! Bad must lead to worse! No good can come from bad! No good, no good can come from bad!
