It's kinda shitty, isn't it? Not the way we pictured it Feels like an existential crisis Or am I being dramatic? I wish the world would shut its mouth Give me space to fucking sort it out Like I'm fine, just leave me alone I'm great on my own But if I'm being honest I'd hate to waste us on this But I truly hope they find their own peace of mind I don't know what I'd be doing without you You love who I am 'Cause I don't care as long as I'm with you I'll reach for your hand In this ugly world where the color is fading You're beautiful in every color and shade, I Don't know if you drink But raise a glass to the past in the story of us A little bit of complication never hurt my body, I know But it's different when the target is your mind And everybody's talking shit No bigger hypocrite, it's fine though My sisters and I, we sympathize But if I'm being honest Never thought that I would have this Back when all I needed was people who will stay I don't know what I'd be doing without you You love who I am 'Cause I don't care as long as I'm with you I'll reach for your hand In this ugly world where the color is fading You're beautiful in every color and shade, I Don't know if you drink But raise a glass 'cause- It took a while to get here I'm fearless but I still fear You'll disappear 'Cause I couldn't be the person that you need I won't ever leave I don't know what I'd be doing without you You love who I am 'Cause I don't care as long as I'm with you I'll reach for your hand In this ugly world where the color is fading You're beautiful in every color and shade I, I In this ugly world where the color is fading You're beautiful in every color and shade, I Don't know if you drink But raise a glass To the story of us

Now everybody knows that walls have ears Is it true? Is it true? (What's that noise?) And the walls had heard what the boy was saying Is it true? Is it true? (It's the boy!) A million tons of stone and steel Is it true? Is it true? Echoed his refrain Low, keep your head, keep your head low Oh, you gotta keep your head low If you wanna keep your head Oh, you gotta keep your head low Keep your head, keep your head low Oh, you gotta keep your head low If you wanna keep your head Oh, you gotta- Why do we turn away when our brother is bleeding? Oh, keep your head- Why do we build the wall and then call it freedom? Oh, keep your head- If we're free, tell me why I can't look in my brother's eye Keep your head- Young man, got to hand it to you Guess you don't scare easy, do ya? Are you brave or stupid, son? Doesn't matter which one 'Cause it seems your song Made quite a strong impression on my wife But it takes more than singing songs To keep a woman in your arms Take it from a man no longer young If you wanna hold a woman, son Hang a chain around her throat Made of many carat gold Shackle her from wrist to wrist With sterling silver bracelets Fill her pockets full of stones Precious ones, diamonds Bind her with a golden band Take it from an old man (oh) If I raise my voice, if I raise my voice If I raise my voice (keep your head low) If I raise my head, if I raise my head If I raise my head (keep your head low) Could I change my fate? Could I change-, could I change- Could I change my fate? (Oh, you gotta keep your head low) If I raise my voice, could I- (keep your head low!) Could I change the way it is? Why do we turn away instead of standing with him? Oh, keep your head- Why are we digging our own graves for a living? Oh, keep your head- If we're free, tell me why we can't even stand upright If we're free, tell me when we can stand with our fellow man Keep your head- Young man, I was young once too Sang a song with love like you Son, I too, was left behind Turned on one too many times Now I sing a different song One I can depend upon A simple tune, a steady beat The music of machinery Do you hear that heavy metal sound? The symphony of Hadestown And in this symphony of mine Of power chords and power lines Young man, you can strum your lyre I have strung the world in wire Young man, you can sing your ditty I conduct the electric city! I'll tell you what, young man Since my wife is such a fan And since I'm gonna count to three And put you out of your misery One! Give me one more song One more song before I send you Two! To the great beyond Where nobody can hear you singing Three! Sing a song for me Make me laugh, make me weep Make the king feel young again Sing for an old man!

You said that you had things to teach me And now, I see it all so clear We're led each moment that we live in To the only choice we're given Where we live in love or fear And you, you knew it's never easy It's never black or white, just shades of gray All we do is face up to those choices And obey our inner voices And hope we find our way And all the choices we make Will shape our lives forever Every path we take When push comes down to shove Every moment counts It's always now or never And although God knows You chose the life you chose I'm here because just what? You chose to love Dad, what are you doing here? I'm here to pay respects to your friend, son Thanks for saving my boy's life, Sonny I never hated you, I I guess I just never forgave for making my son grow up so fast May God have mercy on your soul And now, your whole life lies before you It's time that you become a man You'll know how, just look at what's inside you And let your talent guide you Like I've always known you can And though the choices we make Will shape our lives forever Even one mistake Can tear your world apart But we have a bond that nothing's gonna sever Through the good and bad The happy and the sad Everywhere you go Look to your heart I love you, Dad And I'm sorry if I ever hurt you I love you too, son I left the neighborhood after that It wasn't the same without Sonny This is a Bronx tale, it's just another story (ooh) I had to say goodbye to Jane But she'll always be my first great one This is the kind of tale that makes you laugh and cry (ooh) I went out into the world and I kept my promise I became somebody I owe that to my parents and to Sonny Out on the street They're singing it together They'll be singing it forever You can hear them if you try I still come back from time to time The neighborhood's changed And so have I But I will never forget what I learned from these two men The saddest thing in life is wasted talent And the choices you make will shape your life forever But you can ask anybody from my neighborhood and they'll tell you This is just another Bronx tale And all the choices we make Become part of our story Every joy and ache They're never truly gone Every name, every face All the hope, the tears, the glory Each stoop and street Each win and each defeat The sinners and the saints The sweet and bittersweet And when the tale's complete You've chosen who you are And those choices you made Live on This is a Bronx tale And that's my story The world I lived in The people I knew It's just a Bronx tale And like they all do It happened here on Belmont Avenue Woah Woah Doh, doh, doo

Here I am, here I am and the light is dying Where are you? Where are you? Will you answer me? All alone in the quiet, ah my ears are thirsty For your voice, for your voice; can you answer me? If I try, maybe I can see your shadow In the sodium light that masquerades as moon If I try, I might take off like a sparrow And I'll travel along a guiding breeze Very soon, very soon, that's the sound of longing Are you there? Are you there? Will you answer me? In my dreams, my beloved lies beside me When the sun lights the room, I find it's only me Only me, only me, with the world around me (Only you and the sun is gone, only me when the moon is) Only you, when the sun and moon and Stars are gone, what's left is only you Will you answer me? Answer me.
