20. The Road to Revolution (3:35)
INT. GABRIEL’S HIDEOUT – DAY
[Faythe]
He only sees what he desires to see
It took a while but finally he agreed
Though everything may not turn out as planned
If love’s a risk
It’s worth the chance
[Gabriel]
I know where there is faith there’s always hope
We’ll meet beneath the stars at Heaven’s Cove
Where ghosts of yesterday
Once filled the lighted stage
Taking our first step down a new road
EXT. RAVENSKILL – DAY
[Daryus]
Arhys’ time is running out
What will your decision be?
If you still have any doubt
Think about Evangeline
INT. HOME OF ARHYS AND XANDER – DAY
[Arhys]
On the road to revolution
Our salvation’s never free
There’s a price for liberation
When you stand for your beliefs
When the man in the mirror
Takes a long, hard look at me
Will the person staring back
Be the man I want to be?
INT. EMPEROR’S PALACE – DAY
[Nafaryus]
Change my mind
A waste of time
For soon he will be mine
[Ensemble]
Open eyes
Help me see which choice
Is right
[Faythe]
He only sees what he desires to see
It took a while but finally he agreed
Though everything may not turn out as planned
If love’s a risk
It’s worth the chance
[Gabriel]
I know where there is faith there’s always hope
We’ll meet beneath the stars at Heaven’s Cove
Where ghosts of yesterday
Once filled the lighted stage
Taking our first step down a new road
EXT. RAVENSKILL – DAY
[Daryus]
Arhys’ time is running out
What will your decision be?
If you still have any doubt
Think about Evangeline
INT. HOME OF ARHYS AND XANDER – DAY
[Arhys]
On the road to revolution
Our salvation’s never free
There’s a price for liberation
When you stand for your beliefs
When the man in the mirror
Takes a long, hard look at me
Will the person staring back
Be the man I want to be?
INT. EMPEROR’S PALACE – DAY
[Nafaryus]
Change my mind
A waste of time
For soon he will be mine
[Ensemble]
Open eyes
Help me see which choice
Is right
