A Way Back Home lyrics
by Original Cast of Hope Despair Musical
(MONOKUMA)
All that awaits is despair
There's no point in tryin' ta fight it
Yet you move along despite it
Being your fates, it ain't fair
What more reason do you need to end
These sad, pathetic blockheads you call friends?
Just stop and think
Just one plink along the head and then Shalom!
You can fly away
Right away, back home
Instead of praying every night and day
You'll find a way back home
Puhuhuhuhuhu!
(YASUHIRO)
I need a break
(SAKURA)
I need some sun
(ASAHINA)
What I wouldn't do to see my mom
(HIFUMI)
I don't know how I'm staying calm
(BYAKUYA)
For God's sake, leave me alone!
(JILL)
God, I love it when you scold me
Sir, I'm begging you, please hold me!
(MAKOTO)
Guys I know
Things really suck
But with and luck and some faith, I know
That soon we'll fly away
Right away back home!
Every night I pray
We'll find a way back home!
(KYOKO, spoken)
Thanks everyone for being here
I know the bath house is a strange meeting place, but it's the only room in the whole school we know of that doesn't have any cameras
(CELESTE, spoken)
Why did you gather us here?
(KYOKO, spoken)
What Hina saw last night wasn't a ghost. It was this
(YASUHIRO, spoken)
Woah! It looks just like her!
(MONDO/ALTER EGO, ISHIMARU, BOTH)
Hey pal don't frown
I didn't die so you
Can sit and mope around
It's time to start to anew
I never said goodbye
I never went away
I beg you not to cry
A part of me will stay with you
(ISHIMARU)
My blood boils like a burning white flame!
My friend is not gone
I carry a part of him with me wherever I go!
(YASUHIRO)
Dude, are you feeling alright?
(ISHIMARU)
Beat it, bub
(ASAHINA)
At least he's feeling better!
(ALTER EGO, KYOKO, MAKOTO)
Can you help us?
Yes I can!
We need some info
That's a plan
Try to take whatever you can find
On Hope's Peak and the mastermind
Okay
Okay
I'll do my best
We'll do the rest!
My creator would have wanted us
To move on with the utmost confidence
We'll leave you be
Just let me take a bit to update Chrome
(ALTER EGO, EVERYONE)
And then I'll find a way (Find a way)
Right a way back home
I swear you'll live to see a brighter day (A wide array way)
The light of day back home
(HIFUMI, YASUHIRO, EVERYONE)
We'll see the sun
And meet it's warm embrance
Hey Hiro, you got a minute? (A brand new day begun)
Yeah dude, what's poppin? (The brightness on my face)
Yo, dude, what's that?
A bat!
(MAKOTO)
Maybe it's a long shot. But if Alter Ego can find more about this school, about this killing game we're in...
Maybe we can escape. Maybe we can find who's responsible. Maybe nobody else has to die!
(KYOKO)
Makoto, I found something I think you should see
(MAKOTO)
A photograph? Of what?
What? Chihiro, Mondo, Leon? But, they're all dead! And none of us knew each other before Hope's Peak!
(KYOKO)
Something strange is going on, to be sure. What I'm saying is, be careful, Makoto. Even if we find the answers behind this picture, behind this death game... I don't know if we'll like what they are
(MAKOTO)
Sure, but we can always hope, right?
(EVERYONE)
The light grows dark
But still there's light
Though we may feel like we're cornered
There's nowhere to go but forward
A spark
Still burning bright
We owe it to the ones we've lost
To make it out no matter what it costs
We'll find a way
And when we fly away
Who knows how far we'll go
Yeah we'll find a way (We're wide awake)
To a hideaway back home
So our friends won't have died in vain (We'll glide away)
We won't shy away back home
Yeah we'll find a way (Find a way)
Find a way
Back home!
