Varian: Cassandra, you're angry, I get it.
Believe me, I know what it's like, but you are making a mistake!
Varian: The path of hate is a dangerous track
You take one step and it's hard to turn back
It pulls you along,
and though it seems wrong it feels right
Don't you see this path you're on leaves a permanent mark
It feels good at first, then it slowly turns dark
With each passing day
you're further astray from the light
Suddenly, you lose your way and lose the thread
Lose your cool, then lose your head
Every loss is harder to excuse
Then you'll see you'll lose your faith and lose your soul
'till you lose complete control
And realize there's nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
Varian: Cass, trust me, becoming the villain isn't the answer!
Cassandra: Is that what you think I am?
Cassandra: The path I'm on is a path paved in black
I'm taking that road and I'm not looking back
Each twist and each turn
leads straight where I'm yearning to go
Yes, it's true, my path is dark but I see where it ends
My rivals will fall as my power ascends
Despise me, that's fine
I'm taking what's mine even so
Not like you, you lost your nerve, you lost the game
But you and I, we're not the same
I'm not lost, this fate was mine to choose
So I chose to lose my doubts and lose my chains
Lose each weakness that remains
Now that I have nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
Varian: You have so much to hold onto
Cassandra: I only want my rightful dues
Varian: Listen please, you've lost your grip and lost your mind
Cassandra: Lose? I'm not gonna lose
Varian: All's not lost, don't be so blind
Cassandra: I refuse
Varian: Cut your losses, drop the IOUs
Cassandra: I refuse
Varian: Oooh choose
Cassandra: I lose no tears and lose no sleep
What I want I'll take and keep
Varian: It's time for you to choose
Both: You can't stop the turning of the screws
Cassandra: You'll stay in that cage until this is done. And just in case you think of escaping...
Cassandra: Now I have nothing left to lose
