lyrics

ACT II : AMONG ALL THINGS

SCENE 1 : THE TRIAL (Coubray - Lefebvre)

MEM’OCHO :


“Waiting for, longing for some kind of dream.
Always searching the right from the wrong or why we are living.
Am I created? Must I believe in what I’ve been given?
Are we designed? Should we remember the sense of life?

Love and hate go together.
Are feelings part of what we are?

Think of what you’re doing here.
Are we the essence of the earth?
Hopeless time you have to live.
I close my eyes and I forget.

Don’t be haunted by your money... ...Let your soul run amock
Don’t be your job... ...Let your soul run amock”


THE ANGELS :


“Waiting for...
...some kind of dream?”


MEM’OCHO :

“Forget the color of your shirt... ...Let your soul run amock
Don’t be what they’re telling you to be... ...Let your soul run amock
THE ANGELS :

“Always searching...
...right from wrong?”

MEM’OCHO :

“How can you stare right at the wall, and stay there?
I will return right from the start, and come.

Love and hate for one another.
Yet feelings regard everyone.

Think of what you’re doing here.
Are we the essence of the earth?
Hopeless time you have to live.
I close my eyes and I forget.

So go your way, and don’t return, you’ve only got yourself to learn.
Through the sorrow and the chaos, I want to reach for the stars.

I’m searching for meaning, a new kind of life.
And what I’ve learnt is what the others have given me.
And nowhere to flow.

Am I a slave of time, am I a prisoner from life.
No love can give me all that I need.


Think of what you’re doing here.
Are we the essence of the earth?
Hopeless time you have to live.
I close my eyes and I forget.

So go your way, and don’t return, you’ve only got yourself to learn.
Through the sorrow and the chaos, I want to reach for the stars.”
