Lyrics
Knowing not the reason for his captivity, Edmond replays what he does know over and over in his head, and thinks: "I am Betrayed..."
Silent
As my feet on Elba's shore, she crept upon my soul
Unhappy fate had found her paramour
Unseen
She wrapped me in her arms, my innocence undone
My dark companion with me evermore
Amidst the raging of the sea
My captain, dying, gave to me
His final will to carry out
And Elba's Marshal see
My word of honor did I swear
The exile's fortress did I dare
My captain's missive in hand
And fate, I met her there
Betrayed
Unwitting, drawn into intrigue in my naivety
As everything goes wrong
I fall
Deep and ever deeper, but don't understand
And the dark queen looks on
Marshal and Emperor both do appear
The dark queen takes my hand
Spectral Fate calls out my name
And I, by she, am damned
Leaving one letter and taking the same
Returning to the sea
Casting off, we sail away
And Fate, she follows me
