Abelard

Look to yourself

The truth is within you

The truth is around you

Look to yourself

Trust in yourself

Let no power frighten you

Let reason enlighten you

Look to yourself



Lotulfe, William,

Alberic

Heresy, heresy! Did you hear that?

Heresy, heresy! Did you hear that?

Heresy, heresy! Did you hear that?

Did you hear that?



Abelard

Not for the mighty nor for the great

Truth does not flatter

That's not her trait



Lotulfe, William,

Alberic

Heresy, heresy! Did you hear that?

Heresy, heresy! Did you hear that?

Did you hear that?

We don't know what to think until

We don't know what to feel until

We don't know what to say until

We're told



Abelard

All will be well exploring each mystery

And we'll live inventing history

The truth will refine us and help us see

Flourish within us and make us free

Truth's not a prison that locks us in

Truth is a mansion in human skin



Choir

Look at him

Look at him standing there

No equal anywhere

Look at him



William

Look at him standing there

Ruining me, what does he care

Twisting the truth around

Nothing he says is sound



Lotulfe, William,

Alberic

He must be stopped!

Lotulfe

He will be



Lotulfe, William,

Alberic

His words are heresy, his words are dignity

Choir

His words are dignity

His words are bravery

Lotulfe, William,

Alberic

His words are blasphemy

His tone infuriates

Choir

His message stimulates
