TODD - Act 2 "X. At the Edge"

Todd: No need to pretend being alive, when everyone is around is dead – when everyone is dead.

All those I loved are dead for long ago, and those, who loved me, as well. Well, goodbye!

Burned on both sides, my candle approaches the end. All around is turning dark: Heaven and Earth, goodbye!

Uuu-uuu... Here I see the Death, I see the Light just like a trace – like the light of a star, like the light of the love, which is no longer the case... It is gone – it is calling me into the darkness. The pain fades away and the fear disappears, so be it.

Burned on both sides, my candle approaches the end. To make a step – and farewell, the world!

Uuu-uuu... Here I see the Death, I see the Light just like a trace - like the light of a star, like the light of the love, which is no longer the case... It is gone – it is calling me into the darkness. Only one step, just a step, the last step.

The narrator’s voice: So ended this horrible story – the true story of Sweeney Todd, the barber of Fleet Street – the story, echoes of which may still heard under the Westminster Bridge and under the arches of Covent Garden. Have you ever been to London, sir? This city is impeccably grey. Perpetually grey days and perpetually grey dawns, and the wind tears apart last year's newspapers. Burnt fates raise smoke, and nowhere is a place for the alive. In the veins of the city blood runs like rust. This city is impeccably dead!
