desperation's ballad

Slip away into the night and let’s leave without a trace 

They won’t even know you’re gone, it'll be like you’re erased. 

Say goodbye to all you know and all your memories. 

There’s no need to even pack a bag. It’ll only weigh us down 

So let’s go 

And let’s leave 

And let’s flee

Never to return again 

Oh, let’s go 

And let’s leave 

And let’s flee

Never to return again

The night is dark and the air cold without a single trace of warmth

There’s no light of stars or moon to guide our journey forth 

Still there’s no better time than now to make good our escape

If you don’t go now, then you’ll lose your resolve and forever stay stuck in this place

Don’t feel nostalgic for any sense of home this is not where you belong 

You are subjugated stifled with no room to grow doomed to sing your unheard songs 

Don’t confuse this icy comfort with any semblance of love 

Right now you’re like  a hen with its’ wings clipped in a roost but come with me and I’ll make you a dove 

Or the songbird you were meant to be flying freely through the air

Better days are around the bend just put your trust in me  

So, let’s go 

And let’s leave 

And let’s flee  

Never to return again 

Oh, let’s go 

And let’s leave 

And let’s flee

Never to return again

Oh, let’s go 

And let’s leave 

And let’s flee

never to return again 

Oh, let’s go 

And let’s leave 

And let’s sleep 

never to awake again 

I fell into a dream

like I fell into the sea 

and what did I see 

but you and me

We fell into the sea 

And we’re sinking to the deep 

Oh why can’t you see 

What we will be  

Our Father which art in heaven 

HAROLD 

...I’m getting out...let’s get out of here...You wanna come? 

Hallowed be thy name

UNNAMED GIRL

...Where’d we go?...

Thy kingdom come

HAROLD

...We’ll go to another country...

Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven

HAROLD

...I feel like I gotta break out…

UNNAMED GIRL

...I don’t know Harold...

And lead us not into temptation

HAROLD

...Any place. Any place away from here…

But deliver us from evil

UNNAMED GIRL

...Would we get married?

HAROLD

Yeah. I guess so. 

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever 

UNNAMED GIRL

...be scared Harold.

Amen

Take eat of this

My flesh 

Our sacred flesh

Partake of this 

My blood 

Our sacred blood

For thy Kingdom 

for my kingdom 

for our kingdom
