Paul Shapera - 13. Finale
текст песни

Helen:
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 came through town, made Shira smile
It made her stick around a while more

The story behind all these shows
you'd 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

Han-Mi:
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

Helen:
Speak to us
Will someone out there speak to us
Are we alone here?
Lost up here upon a stage
alone inside an unwatched play
if someone out there's left to trust
speak to us

Henry:
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 its me this trap must chain

we must be careful, not allow
this trap to let the beast come out
we should ignore keep on somehow
the show must just go on right now

Helen:
The carnival it comes for you
if we question what is true
I don't like when i don't know what to do

Han-Mi:
No, you both have memories that
keep you from breaking out this trap
i say we stop the show until someone comes to

Helen and Han-Mi:
Speak to us
Will someone out there speak to us
Are we alone here?
Lost up here upon a stage
alone inside an unwatched play
if someone out there's left to trust
speak to us

Sheriff:
I never saw a mountain
I never saw a sky
I never saw a sight that looks quite you look tonight

Han-Mi:
hank you must have loved her
your precious werewolf girl

Sheriff:
I do

Han-Mi:
look at me closely, you can see that i'm not her

Han-Mi, the delectable scourge which must be removed from this town!

Helen:
aand we're back

Han-Mi:
Who wouldn't miss this?

Sheriff:
But i want you.. i want you just one time...

Han-Mi:
you never saw a mountain you never saw a sky

Sheriff:
I never saw a sight that looks quite like you are tonight...

just make it stop, just make it halt
i think my minds not well

Han-Mi:
Hank its not your fault

Sheriff:
There are times a think
she was all that's real
in world where threads of fate are spun on catherine wheels

They say when you break there's a place you belong

Han-Mi:
I've been living like this for a while, holding on

Sheriff:
Is nothing left real to you?
Nothing real any more?

Han-Mi:
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 out fair lives
but it rises with you on the stage
i clung to just this, that one good man exists
in Miss Helen's one pace from disgraced cabaret

Helen:
I built this show from ground on up
i've 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 want to speak with someone right away

the show is stopped there's no more play
i’m halting this here cabaret
until someone comes up here to explain

i built this show from ground on up
i’ve put in tears and sweat and blood
some weeks held together by a prayer

the show is stopped there's no more play
i’m halting this here cabaret
until someone comes up here to explain

Henry:
we're live in a feed back plan
we're caught in recursive strands
we're placed a moebius cage
or else we're not awake

Cages within cages

Hank:
I’m sorry
i’m sorry i was blind
I won’t play these insane mind games again

I’ve had enough its been too long that this goes on
it all must stop, its all gone wrong, we will not let this carry on
the show is stopped there's no more play
i'm halting this here cabaret
until some comes up here

Han:
Cages within cages
I’ve had enough its been too long that this goes on
it all must stop, its all gone wrong
This show is stopped, there's no more play
i’m halting this here cabaret
until someone comes up here to

All:
Speak to us
Speak to us
Lost up here upon a stage
Alone inside an unwatched play
if someone out there’s left to trust
speak to us

speak to us
speak
speak
speak
