Finale (feat. Lauren Osborn, Psyche Chimere & Rhys Owen)
I built this show from ground on up
Worked so hard to make it run
Stressed each week from opening to encore
A theater troupe back a long while
Had come through town, made Shira smile
It made her stick around a while more
The story behind all these shows
You think I'd be the one to know
But standing here there's nothing I recall
But if you question what is true
The carnival will come for you
The show must go on, keeps you from the fall
The play itself is lulling us to sleep and
Something here manipulates and schemes
All's not as it seems
It pulls upon our strings
We're wandering up here lost within a dream
Speak to us
Will someone out there speak to us
Are we alone in here?
Lost up here upon a stage
Alone inside an unwatched play
If anyone's out there to trust
Speak to us
I've studied back behind the stage
There are no doors, no patent ways
You exit the left wing and then
You'll walk out through the right again
A maze made
For a beast to cage
Perhaps it's me this trap must chain
The carnival it comes for you (We must be careful, not allow)
If we question what is true (The trap to let the beast come out)
I don't like when I don't know what to do (We should ignore, keep on somehow, the show must just go on right now)
No, you both have memories that
Keep you from breaking out this trap
I say we stop the show until someone comes to
Speak to us
Will someone out there speak to us
Are we alone in here?
Lost up here upon a stage
Alone inside an unwatched play
If anyone's out there to trust
Speak to us
I never saw a mountain
I never saw a sky
I never saw a sight that looks quite like you look tonight
Hank, you must have loved her
Your precious werewolf girl (I do)
Look at me closely
You can see that I'm not her
Han-Mi, the detestable scourge which must be removed from this town!
And we're back!
Who wouldn't miss this?
Yet I want you
I want you just one time
Just to have you
You never saw a mountain
You never saw a sky
I never saw a sight that looks quite like she did that night
Just make it stop
Oh, just make it halt
I think my mind's not well
Hank, it's not your fault
There are times I think
She was all that's real
In a world where threads of fate
Are spun on catherine wheels
They say when you break
There's a place you belong
I've been living like this for a while now, holding on
Is nothing left real to you?
Nothing real anymore?
You are
You are to me
I don't have much left to, to cling
Though you hate me, I know
Cause it's part of the show
And I've nowhere to go
The light died upon our fair lives
But it rose with you on the stage
I clung to this
That one good man exists
In Miss Helen's one pace from disgraced cabaret
I built this show from ground on up
I put in tears and sweat and blood
Some weeks held it together by a prayer
I made it cause I love this town
And watching it come crashing down
Someone will give me answers, this I swear
You want my cast, then understand
You'll pry them from my cold dead hands (I'm sorry)
I want to speak to someone right away (I'm sorry I was blind)
The show is stopped, there's no more play
I'm halting this here cabaret
Until someone comes down here to explain
I've had enough
It's been too long that this goes on
(Cages within cages)
The show is stopped there's no more play
I'm halting this here cabaret
Until some comes down here to explain (Cages in cages)
Speak to us
Speak to us
Lost up here upon the stage
Alone inside an unwatched play
If someone's out there's left to trust
Speak to us
Speak to us
Speak to us
Speak
