about

"Sybil Vane is one of the darkest episodes from The Picture of Dorian Grey, and Spread wrote a song about it!

Writing and singing the lyrics for this one was particularly difficult, but I'm very happy with the final result

I think this is the song where we have tried our best to be intellectual and also because I discovered most of the English literature thanks to Iron Maiden!" - Giov

lyrics

By now it was no longer my place
Juliet is your name
Your act has taken my love
Despite my ego

Illusion, delusion
Leave it all behind
Wash this memories from my mind
Oh my dear Sybil Vane…

By now it was no longer my life
I stare at the stage
Your eyes has made me realize
I was tempted by pleasure

Illusion, delusion
Leave it all behind
Wash this memories from my mind
Oh my dear Sybil Vane…

By now you were no longer yourself
Reality gives no clue
Despised, abandoned
Dorian is my name

I cannot do it, I cannot leave you
I just realized I erased my identity

Illusion, delusion
Leave it all behind
Wash this memories from my mind
Oh my dear Sybil Vane…

All that I want, all that I need
Someone to love, something worth living

Why did you lie to me? Your play fooled me
Why did you lie? The picture is fading

“The girl never really lived,
and so she has never really died.
To you at least she was always a dream”
(The Picture of Dorian Gray)
