Песня: Bridge to the Stars
[FATHER IWANICKI:]
Your friend does sound troubled, my son.

[ELWOOD:]
The worst of it was his strange, terrible dreams.

[FATHER IWANICKI:]
An intelligent man studying both mathematics and occult folklore... no doubt it triggered his imagination.

[ELWOOD:]
It wasn't his imagination, Father. I think he made some kind of deal with the Devil. He'd gained abstract math¬ematical knowledge beyond human comprehension! We were all astounded by it, especially our teacher, Professor Upham.

[PROFESSOR UPHAM:]
So many questions
Science is a vast frontier
Of theory scrutinized
Deep exploration
Of concepts we hold dear
We equate and we describe

[UPHAM + ELWOOD + STUDENTS:]
Our calculations never end

[GILMAN:]
I've insight you can't comprehend
There's a bridge to the stars
Dimensions near and far
I will go to a cosmos more immense
There's a bridge to the stars

[PROFESSOR UPHAM:]
Son, your notion's quite bizarre

[ELWOOD:]
Walter, you're not making any sense

[GILMAN:]
Just hold on!
Mankind's perceptions are constricted by his fears
Blindness soothes your mind

[PROFESSOR UPHAM:]
Bold speculation, but your theory thus implies
Flesh and blood of man survives
Such entry to another realm

[ELWOOD:]
Bound creatures, we'd be overwhelmed

[UPHAM + ELWOOD:]
On your bridge to the stars
Dimensions near and far

[UPHAM:]
I'm impressed, but it's just a metaphor

[GILMAN:]
There's a bridge to the stars
And places very far
It's actual, and I can show you more

[ELWOOD:]
Walter strode up to the black board and effortlessly solved numerous Riemannian equations, which seemed to demonstrate the possibility of man literally stepping from one dimension to others of infinite remoteness. Professor Upham was astonished. I was baffled at first, but soon I could see...

There's a bridge to the stars
Dimensions near and far
We could walk where no man has walked before
There's a bridge to the stars

[ELWOOD + GILMAN:]
And places very far
Expand your mind, the world's ours to explore

[MISKATONIC STUDENT CHOIR:]
There's a bridge to the stars
Dimensions near and far
We could walk where no man has walked before
There's a bridge to the stars

[UPHAM:]
Mister Gilman that's quite intriguing

[MISKATONIC STUDENT CHOIR:]
To explore
Ahhhh
There's a bridge to the stars!

[ELWOOD:]
Other students whispered about Walter in the hall¬ways. Even the faculty were concerned for him. The learning... he was coming unhinged.

[FATHER IWANICKI:]
Perhaps Gilman ought not to have studied so hard.

[ELWOOD:]
It wasn't only that, Father. Walter lived in the very room where Keziah herself performed black magic.

[FATHER IWANICKI:]
My son, witchcraft and science are two sides of the same coin. Man has always hungered for the unknowable, the divine.

[ELWOOD:]
But Father, this isn't divine at all. This knowledge was, I don't know... profane? Unholy?

[FATHER IWANICKI:]
Your friend Walter's soul was in peril, my son. Yours too, perhaps. The Lord of Darkness is always present and can take many forms.

[ELWOOD:]
Yes, Father. Walter heard strange, unearthly voices in the house. He said there was a creature, a horrible thing bound to the Witch.

[FATHER IWANICKI:]
It is said witches had familiars, evil spirits in the form of animals.

[ELWOOD:]
Yes! That's it exactly! He saw it, in his dreams.

[FATHER IWANICKI:]
Dreams can be a battlefield, where the holy and unholy wage war for the soul.

[ELWOOD:]
Walter's dreams were now becoming terrifying nightmares.

Перевод песни:
Мост к звёздам

[Отец Иваницки:]
Твой друг казался обеспокоенным, сын мой...

[Илвуд:]
Худшим из всего этого были его странные, кошмарные сны.

[Отец Иваницки:]
Интеллигентный молодой человек, изучающий математику и оккультные мифы... без сомнений, это распалило его воображение...... [открыть перевод]
