*Verse 1 (Jason the Hero)
There was a time when you could not trust me.
And there was a time when darkness was all I could see.
But now there are no layers of evil left to shed.
And if he heard me sing this song, I would be good as dead.
*Pre-Chorus (Luke the Headmaster)
People can change.
People can change.
They can turn their back and run.
People can change.
People can change.
I’m sorry for all the things I’ve done.
*Chorus (Brittany, Luke, and Kristina)
People don’t change.
People don’t change.
Once a Death Eater, you’re always one.
People can change.
People can change.
They can turn their back and run.
People don’t change.
People don’t change.
Stop running. It’s you you’re running from.
It’s you you’re running…
*Post-Chorus (Kristina, Jason, and Brittany)
FROOOOM.
AHHHHH, OHHHHH
It’s you you’re running…
FROOOOM.
AHHHHH, OHHHHH
*Verse 1 (Aaron the Auror)
Now the Dark Mark, it has appeared on me.
Lord Voldemort, he calls, but I want to be free.
From all the evil I have seen and I have done.
So, please believe, it’s over. The good in me has won.
*Pre-Chorus (Luke the Headmaster)
People can change.
People can change.
They can turn their back and run.
People can change.
People can change.
I’m sorry for all the things I’ve done.
*Chorus (Brittany, Luke, and Kristina)
People don’t change.
People don’t change.
Once a Death Eater, you’re always one.
People can change.
People can change.
They can turn their back and run.
People don’t change.
People don’t change.
Stop running. It’s you you’re running from.
*Post-Chorus (Brittany, then Kristina, Jason, and Brittany)
FROOOOM.
FROOOOM.
It’s you you’re running…
FROOOOM.
It’s you you’re running from.
AHHHHH, OHHHHH
*Chorus (Brittany, Luke, and Kristina)
People can change.
People can change.
They can turn their back and run.
People can change.
People can change.
I’m sorry for all the things I’ve done.
People don’t change.
People don’t change.
Once a Death Eater, you’re always one.
Maybe I can’t,
Can’t really change,
I can’t turn my back and run.
People don’t change.
People don’t change.
Stop running. It’s you you’re running from.
I won’t change,
I’ll never change,
Lord Voldemort has won.
*End (Aaron)
Lord Voldemort he calls…
Lord Voldemort he calls…
Lord Voldemort he calls…






[...] the song Snape vs. Snape by Ministry of Magic (sung with The [...]
I love this song, but it’s really sad how it ends. Snape is good.
This is a really good song. The harmonizing is what I’d call….”epic.” Haha. Borrowed word. (Sorry, I suppose it’s only funny for me. Inside joke.)
But for those that might be wondering, it’s the Ministry of Magic singing with The Parselmouths.
Love this song! its really really good! Good Lyrics and Good Music!
I love this song so much. Especially what Lilith said, I love the harmonizing of MoM and The Parselmouths. (:
My second favourite wizard rock song after the new version of Hate Remains by the Sectumsempras
The end makes me a bit sad though… I trust Severus Snape, but I guess I could be proved wrong next week!
I love it!! it’s like, my fav song ever now wow! woo! you guys rock, I was wondering who those guys were so yay! Now I know! You guys rock! I wuv it!
I love the tune! I makes me sad, this song. It’s so true though, Snape’s battle with himself… and Voldemort winning in the end.
For some reason whenever I hear this song I’m like entranced and I can’t stop listening to it…Everytime I hear it, it seems like there’s another dimension of music…The lyrics and everything are also very great, as well as the vocals. I heard you all talking on SnapeCast about the meaning of the song, and when I thought about it, what you said about trying to mimic how Snape was always “good” until the surprise ending of HBP, that’s exactly what the song feels like. Great job! -MaryClare
This would have to be one of my favorite Wizard Rock songs. Its sooo awesome and true!
A-HA! He was always good! In your face, sceptics! Awwwww, Snape. <3 I trusted you and you didn’t let me down.
I absolutely love this song more than any other wizard rock song ever! =] Its amazing!
OMG THis song is AMAZING! I love Ministry of Magic and the Parselmouths! I think this is definitely one of their best songs,, I just LOVE it!
Hi ! Sorry for my mistakes : I’m french…
I love this song !! The theme is beatiful, and so are the lyrics.
But I have some difficulties to find anything about the band (who’re they etc…).
If someone have an information, please, email-me at my adress :

I love this song. Not only is it great music, but it really gets to the squishy center of Snape. They did a great job of sort of hedging their bets as far as if he’s good or evil.
Whenever I listen to it, what I see in my mind is a young Snape, right after he turned from Voldemort, and the girls are either Lily or some sort of ghost-Lily, or Snape imagining what Lily would say. Like he’s pleading with her, trying to apologize and explain to her, but knows/fears she would still hate him for telling Voldemort about the prophecy, trying to convince himself that he really has changed but ultimately feeling like it was all a waste and as much as he might try to change, at that point in his life, he feels he’s just fooling himself.
That’s what it makes me think of, anyway.
I love this songg!!!
But, I really want someone to post the lyrics for “The Villian” by MoM. I *Love* that song!! “You can’t kill me! I’m Harry Potter!”
I love they song what What The Hell I am sorry but Snape is good, and he did change like right after he told Voldemort the secret of the prophecy so I have to back up my boy, but other than that it’s an awesoem song ^^
What can I say?
I LOVE the song
I LOVE the singing
I LOVE it!!!
Catchy and AMAZING!!! It is the story of Snape! Totally!
I love it. ^_^
One of my all time favorite wizard rock songs! I am absolutely obsessed with Ministry of Magic!!!! And for those of you who are wondering about the lyrics at the end of the song, it was written before DH came out so it appeared as if Voldemort had won. MoM has now written a sequel to Snape vs. Snape called The Bravest Man I Ever Knew which is a Snape is a hero song so all of you Snape fans should go to MoM’s myspace page and listen to it. It’s an amazing song also! And while you’re there you can buy their totally awesome new album Goodbye Privet Drive. Sorry if I sound like an advertisement, but seriously go buy their albums. They are both amazing. Hooray for Snape!!!!
…It’s so sad.
I love this song though, it’s perfect.
It’s my second favourite song after Into the Night, also by MoM.
This song is one of my favorites from MoM.
It always gives me chills.
