Wicked Love Chris Isaak

Once, I was Edric Sebastian Thornleigh. A pianist shackled by false grandeur, entangled in cold harmonies, and betrayed by every promise I ever believed. My heart was shattered by the lies and charades they called love, and my ambition reduced to a tool to solidify another's name. I was a prisoner in a gilded cage, thirsting for a true freedom I never found. But from the ruins of that betrayal, a voice called me from the abyss. A pact. Power. I accepted. Edric is dead. Now, I am Julian Lucien Malrick, the Maestro of Darkness. No more limits. No more shackles. Only absolute power, boundless freedom, and the ambition to shape the world to my will. I will spread the true symphony of darkness across the globe. Every note I play will permeate souls, unleash the darkest desires, and shatter every illusion of "goodness" that binds humanity. This is not merely vengeance; this is a mission. A masterpiece that will etch my name—and the name of the Lord of Darkness—into eternity. The world shall dance to my rhythm. "Revel, and taste the pleasure of the music of darkness."
