This name is a curse
To make my life worse
Than anything Father had dreamed
The d'Urberville cast
From centuries past
Are more of a weight than they seemed
Inside of these vaults
For all of their faults
My family lies serene
Interred under stone
If I'd never known
How different my future had been
Now I'm haunted by legions of d'Urberville ghosts
Who say I'm the last of their line
It's the thing that my father had wanted the most
But the price is too great for I'm losing my mind
Why am I on the wrong side of the door?
Let me die as the girl I was before
Oh, Angel, my love
Let heaven above
Determine for me my fate
I wish you could hear
My terror, my fear
And reach me before it's too late
For I'm haunted by ghosts from the d'Urberville past
Who say I'm the end of their name
How the mighty are fallen
Now I am the last
But in dying I'd bring you all nothing but shame
Why am I on the wrong side of the door?
Let me die as the girl I was before
Tell me why am I on the wrong side of the door?
Let me die as the Tess I was before
