about

In the end comes a reflection from the Count, and a warning to the listeners who have empathized with his story: from the abyss of revenge, which overwhelms everything, one does not emerge as redeemed angel but as demon tested by the abyss.

lyrics

Here on the shore of the island alone
Over this stone, in the sea, years ago I was reborn

Montecristo
Burning bridges behind
Montecristo
My hands stained with blood

Edmond died in the castle of if
Pure and innocent as when it all began

Montecristo
Is the flame of revenge
Montecristo
Shattered all till the end

Is more what i've got, or what i’ve lost? and now…

Look yourself in the mirror
Can you see the count?
He is your thirst for justice!
When you sink down to hell
You will rise again
Like a demon as morning star did!

Knowledge and culture my sword and my shield,
But no treasure i’ve found enough to dry all my tears

Montecristo
A thousand identities
Montecristo
Only ashes for me

I was the jester who ran the show
But faith pulled my strings

Look yourself in the mirror
Can you see the count?
He is your thirst for justice!
When you sink down to hell
You will rise again
Like a demon as morning star did!

Dantes is dead
Only the count remains
All have been swept into the spiral of his bloody revenge
Look yourself in the mirror
Can you see the count?
He is your thirst for justice!
When you sink down to hell
You will rise again
Like a demon as morning star did!

Look yourself in the mirror
Can you see the count?
He is your thirst for justice!
When you sink down to hell
You will rise again
Like a demon as morning star did!

If you have been on my side in this story, then watch your steps carefully…
Because the price of a blind justice is nothing but a storm and only ruins remain...
