Lyrics: "And Then There Were None" from Spring Awakening

Frau Gabor:
Dear Herr Stief - Moritz,
I’ve spent the entire day thinking about your note
Truly it touched me – it did – that you would think of me as a friend
Of course, I was saddened to hear that
Your exams came off rather less well than you'd hoped
And that you will not be promoted, come fall
And, yet, I must say straightaway that fleeing to America is hardly the solution
And, even if it were, I cannot provide the money you request…

Moritz:
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, well, fine.
Not like it's even worth the time.
But still you know, you wanted more.
Sorry, it won't change been there before.

Frau Gabor:
You would do me wrong, Herr Stiefel to read into my refusal any lack of affection
On the contrary, as Melchior’s mother, I truly believe it to be my duty to curb this momentary loss…

Moritz:
The thing that sucks -okay?- for me,
a thousand bucks, I'm, like, scot free.
And I mean, please, that's all I need.
Get real, okay, by now, you know the score.

Frau Gabor:
Should you like, I am ready to write your parents
I will try to convince them that no one could’ve worked harder last semester
And also that too rigorous a condemnation of your current misfortune
Could have the gravest possible effect on…

Moritz:
You wanna laugh. It's too absurd.
You start to ask. Can't hear a word.
You wanna crash and burn;
right, tell me more.

Frau Gabor:
Still, Herr Stiefel, one thing in your letter disturbed me
Your – what shall we call it? – veiled threat that should escape not be possible
You would take your own life…

Moritz:
Okay, so now we do the play.
Act like we so care. No way!
You'll write my folks? Well, okay.
Babe, that's how it goes.

Frau Gabor:
My dear boy, the world is filled with men –
Businessmen, scientists, scholars even who have done rather poorly in school
And yet, gone on to brilliant careers
Consider for example our friend...

Moritz:
They freak or won't, you to the line.
You tell your soul, just kill some time.
Will it quit? It will until they don't.

They're not my home, not anymore.
Not like they so were before.
Still, I'll split, and they'll like...
Well, who knows?

Who knows?
Who knows?

Frau Gabor:
In any case, I assure you that
your present misfortune will have no effect on my feelings for you
Or, on your relationship with Melchior…

Moritz and Hanschen:
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, well fine.
Not like it's even worth the time.
But still you know, you wanted more.

Hanschen:
Okay, so nothing's changed

Moritz:
Heard that before.

Moritz, Hanschen, and Otto:
You wanna laugh. It's too absurd.
You start to ask. Can't hear a word.

Otto:
You're gonna crash and burn.

Moritz:
Right, tell me more.

Moritz, Hanschen, Otto and Ernst:
You start to cave, you start to cry.
You try to run, nowhere to hide.

Georg:
You want to crumble up and close that door.

Frau Gabor:
So, head high, Herr Stiefel!
And do let me hear from you soon
In the meantime, I am unchangingly, and most fondly yours,
Fanny Gabor

Moritz:
Just fuck it; right? Enough. That's it.
You'll still go one, well, for a bit.
Another day of utter shit-
and then there were none,

Moritz and Otto:
and then there were none,

Moritz, Otto, and Georg:
and then there were none,

All:
and then there were none.

This was the song that I really knew had to be posted.
Please note that the lyrics are not "Get real, Jose."
I couldn't find any lyrics online that didn't say that.

Lyrics: "Left Behind" from Spring Awakening

Melchior:
You fold his hands and smooth his tie,
you gently lift his chin.
Were you really so blind
and unkind to him?

Can't help the itch to touch, to kiss,
to hold him once again.
Now, to close his eyes,
never open them?

A Shadow passed, a shadow passed,
yearning, yearning
for the fool
it called a home.

All things he never did are left behind;
all the things his mama wished he'd bear in mind
and all his dad ever hoped he'd know.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.

The talks you never had, the Saturdays you never spent,
all the "grown up" places you never went;
and all of the crying you wouldn't understand,
you just let him cry: "Make a man out of him."

A shadow passed, a shadow passed,
yearning, yearning
for the fool
it called a home.

All things he ever wished are left behind;
All the things his mama did to make him mind
and how his dad had hoped he'd grow.

All things he ever lived are left behind;
all the fears that ever flickered through his mind;
all the sadness that he'd come to own.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.

A shadow passed, a shadow passed,
yearning, yearning
for the fool
it called a home.

And it whistles through the ghosts
still left behind
It whistles through the ghosts
still left behind

It whistles through the ghosts
still left behind.
Oh-oh.

Lyrics: "The Guilty Ones" from Spring Awakening

Wendla:
Something's started crazy,
sweet and unknown.
Something you keep in a box on the street,
now it's longing for a home.

All (except Melchior and Wendla):
And, who can say what dreams are?

Wendla:
Wake me in time to be lonely and sad.

All (except Melchior and Wendla):
And, who can say what we are?

Wendla:
This is the season for dreaming.

And now our bodies are the guilty ones,
who touch and color the hours.
Night won't breathe.
Oh, how we fall in silence from the sky
and whisper some silver reply...

All (except Wendla and Melchior):
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh.

Melchior:
Pulse is gone and racing,
all fits and starts.
Window by window you try and look into
this brave new you that you are.

All (except Wendla and Melchior):
And, who can say what dreams are?

Melchior:
Wake me in time to be out in the cold,

All (except Wendla and Melchior):
And, who can say what we are?

Melchior:
This is the reason for dreaming

All:
And now our bodies are the guilty ones.
Our touch will fill ev'ry hour.
Huge and dark, oh, our hearts
will murmur the blues from on high,

then whisper some silver reply
whoa-oh, whoa-oh.

And now our bodies are the guilty ones

she closed her eyes and whispered, "please be real"

third time's the charm, i guess?
who knows. i'm gonna try to keep this up this time.
honestly, the main reason i'm starting this up again is because a) i'm tired of being indifferent to everything, so i'm trying to get more of an opinion on stuff and b) i'm gonna post some spring awakening lyrics because NONE OF THE INTERNET ONES ARE CORRECT AND IT PISSES ME OFF!

mkay lets get started :)
