Lestat The Musical Cast - From the Dead Beautiful Boy Lyrics

Lestat:
It suits me well, this modern world
The righteous find depraved
For one who’s lived three centuries
A stranger to the grave
The years roll by, and rules that I
Was taught to honor and revere
In this new age of telling all
Seem threats exempt of fear
I’ve read in recent times the claims
That literature has made
The image of my kind is just
A comic book charade
They demonized this thing that I became
The truth is lost, the cliches still remain
And from the dead there springs a tale that must be told
And epic life connected
Through a single thread of gold
And how from death into damnation I was hurled
It’s time this vampire shared his story with the world!
