Текст песни

It is time for us all
To decide who we are
Do we fight for the right
To a night at the opera now?
Have you asked of yourselves
What’s the price you might pay?
Is itsimply a game
For rich young boys to play?
The colour of the world
Is changing day by day
Red
the blood of angry men!
Black
the dark of ages past!
Red
a world about to dawn!
Black
the night that ends at last!
Had you been there tonight
You might know how it feels
To be struck to the bone
In a moment of breathless delight!
Had you been there tonight
You might also have known
How your world may be changed
In just one burst of light!
And what was right seems wrong
And what was wrong seems right!
Red
I feel my soul on fire!
Black
My world if she’s not there!
Red
It’s the colour of desire!
Black
It’s the colour of despair!
Marius, you’re no longer a child
I do not doubt you mean it well
But now there is a higher call.
Who cares about your lonely soul?
We strive toward a larger goal
Our little lives don’t count at all!
Red
the blood of angry men!
Black
the dark of ages past!
Red
a world about to dawn!
Black
the night that ends at last!
