You Will Die Alone (GoF, Chap. 33-34)

(To the tune of No One is Alone, from Sondheim's Into the Woods)

Hear a MIDI at:

Note: This is a somewhat different version of the song than the one 
on the Original Cast album, lacking the interjections made by several 
of the characters. This more streamlined version is sung by Laurie 
Beecham on a Varese-Sarabande CD titled The Sondhein Collection. 
Anyone who knows the original should have no problem following it.  
For those who don't know the song, it's a slow, gentle lullaby sung 
in a soothing and consoling manner. 

THE SCENE: The Little Hangleton Cemetery.  Having untied HARRY from 
his father's headstone, VOLDEMORT gloats as he prepares HARRY for a 
ceremonial execution.

VOLDEMORT
Mother cannot guide you
Dumble is remote
Now that I've untied you,
Got you by the throat
You are quite alone. Truly.
You will die alone

Going into battle
Your position's weak
Son, you lack a paddle
Up that famous creek
Flesh and blood and bone
Have made you so alone

You won by mistake. 
Curse scar
Hearse car
Escaped by mistake, 
Surely they in school
Taught you how to duel
A bow you must make
Niceties we take-- 
Just before I feed you to my snake.
Viciousness is vast, Crucios shall hurt.
You will duel tonight, you'll be dead as dirt

I'll dismember.... 

It's your Appomattox 
It's your Waterloo
It's axiomatics:
"None best You-Know-Who"
You are so alone. 
And you will die alone

(VOLDEMORT is angered that HARRY resists his Imperius Curse)

Hard to you make answer
You remain erect.
It's just like a cancer
Kids have no respect.
Time is not on your side—
You will die alone.....
 
(VOLDEMORT moves in for the kill)
