Fill in the missing song lyric: "This face which earned a mother's fear and loathing. A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothing. ____ comes too late. Turn around and face your fate. An eternity of this before your eyes."
Answer: Pity
The Phantom needs some lovin'. Makes me wish I was Christine so the story would end differently, but who cares about me? This had to be one of the more emotional moments of the film. it was sung during the last 15 minutes of the film, after he snatches Christine and forces her back to his lair and into the wedding gown he has for her. This is also true to the novel in which the Phantom tells Christine that his mother would not let him kiss her forehead as a son would kiss his mother, and that the first gift he ever received from her was a mask. But then, you have to remember that Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom is a glorified version; the novel's Phantom looked and smelled like a corpse (and he had to wear a fake nose if he wanted to pass unnoticed in the towns).
