He lives in the music of his melodies.
Now as went by so his songs grew sadder,

Now he sings of and some things even madder;

Madeline
House devours her
so take her from this

Madeline

This is only a house my
Which, by dint of long and undisturbed endurance.
by its form and substance,
has obtained an influence, a
yet importunate and hold
which, for centuries,
has moulded the destiny of my
and now makes of me it is I am.
The House is Usher and Usher is the
the two are indivisible.
It was born us, prospered with us, suffered too.
And it will, in some way, die us, soon.
I am the of the Usher,
mine is the last drop of blood,
The of the Usher!
The House has told me in midnight
my chamber walls,
the House has told me in the secret
of the stones none can hear save I.
I am the of the Usher,
my death shall leave me so;
I am the of the Usher,
so in Usher's House I will alone.
Roderick, this is nightmare talk.
Come back me, both of you, while you're yet able
You stay here and rot!
USHER There be no rot!
No rot in Usher!
We have lived thunder,
and with thunder we fall!
MONTRESOR I make you come but hear what I say.
Send Madeline with me to some place.
No rot! No rot in Usher!
We lived by lightning
and but lightning we fall!
No slide into decay,
no shrivelling
no ebbing away,
no surrender!
No rot! No rot in Usher!
We have lived as and as Titans we must fall!
USHER
Don't of rot
Stop!
No rot in Usher!
Stop!
Roderick, try and calm
tell me why I should! this cannot do you good.
thoughts...
No!
are folly.
No!
Everything I've to I have tried to help you
tell you, you've misunderstood done everything I could.
Come, why we fight
way
we have troubles.
What was it we used to What was it we used to say?
A problem shared is doubled! A problem is doubled!
Ushers do not flee! to not flee!
Montresors stand firm! Montresors firm!
So we together, So we stand together,
stand stand together
By dint of
and endurance...
we defeat the House,
my friend.
