The Riddle
Lyricist：Nan Knighton, Frank Wildhorn
See the moon slink down in the sky darling
Let your fantasies fly darling
Life is cold, and the game is old
Just see how virtue repays you
You turn and someone betrays you
Betray him first and the game's reversed
For we all are caught in the middle
Of one long treacherous riddle
Can I trust you? Should you trust me too?
We shamble on through this hell
Taking on more secrets to sell
'Til there comes a day
When we sell our souls away
Through the mist your lover is beckoning
Comes that moment of reckoning
Faces change, even smiles grow strange
And we all have so many faces
The real self often erases
Enticing lies, flicker through our eyes

Feel the terror draw ever nearer
The more you stare in the mirror
But hold your own, face the wind alone
Reel on love, toughen your scars
Year by year we're falling like stars
'Till there comes a day
When we sell our souls away
Can I run to you? Are you true to me?
I'll do unto you as you do to me
And we slowly learn someone has to burn
Better you than me
Oh , ev'ry Judas once loved a Jesus
But fin'lly treason will seize us
And only fools follow golden rules
We all are caught in the middle
Of one long treacherous riddle
Of who trusts who
Maybe I'll trust you
But can you trust me?
Wait and see
