Pallis (Played by Brendon Urie):
I've been tracing your steps,
Along with your dainty, exquisite guest
Across mountain land and serpentine seas
These two have been on quite an odyssey.
You're a fool to think this princess,
Could ever really love a couple of poor boys like us.
She requires riches, recherche
riding with rodomontading roues.
Adakias (Played by Thomas Dutton):
Casanovas have charmed with chiffons, so chichi
Chased her with their conceited coteries.
Princess Anhura (Played by Greta Salpeter):
Maharajas have maliloquently mouthed,
Their love for me through their menagerie
Adakias (Played by Thomas Dutton):
She's been propositioned, propounded by every pompous prince
Given panniers of peerless pears and plums, polished
Princess Anhura (Played by Greta Salpeter):
I've been seduced with shimmering, sparkling stones
Squired by suitors to sizable chateaus
Adakias (Played by Thomas Dutton):
And I'm the one she chose!
Pallis (Played by Brendon Urie):
I understand how you can love a man of truth.
So why don't you just ask him where he spent his youth?
Oh, look at her face!
She really doesn't see that you are from the dark
And you've been lying through your teeth.
Adakias (Played by Thomas Dutton):
Anhura, please listen,
I really can explain.
I meant to tell you sooner, it's been gnawing at my brain.
Now you know the truth, but that knowledge shouldn't change
The nature of our love; We've broken through the chains.
Pallis (Played by Brendon Urie):
I'm sure that she would care to hear your acumen
As to how your presence is the reason she is sick.
But I suppose it's in vain, since her life is ending
When I thrust this blade in,
To her heart a-thumpin'!
Adakias (Played by Thomas Dutton):
Brother, No!
Pallis (Played by Brendon Urie):
Brother, what have I done?
My blade has pierced your side;
This was never my intent
O God, please stay alive!
Adakias (Played by Thomas Dutton):
Dear Pallis, you're my brother, you've tried to protect me.
But your dagger's edge found in my
flesh, it truly was my destiny.
Pallis (Played by Brendon Urie):
