[Intro] (Ambient sound: wind, distant carnival bells) [Instrumental Theme] (Eerie music box plays the "Melting Mask" melody) [Verse 1 - Dramatic Theatrical Spoken Word - Male Tenor Voice] "Ladies and Gentlemen... Step inside the tent of shadows! Witness the error of God, the joke of the stars... A child born with a skull for a face, A soul wrapped in a velvet curse!" [Build-up - Orchestral Crescendo] [Spoken - Shouted with Emphasis] "Look at the freak! Look at the shame!" [Chorus - Epic Male Choir] (The Choir sings the melody: "Ah-ah-ah!") The shadows are calling his name... The darkness is claiming its heir... [Instrumental Bridge - Symphonic Metal] (Heavy guitars and pipe organ) [Outro - Cold Whisper] "I was a man... before I was a myth."
