’Til Death - Reprise lyrics
by Christopher Sieber
[ERNEST]
Then I guess this is where it ends for me
I'm sorry for the pain and the stupidity
I just wasn't made for eternity
I'd rather die
[MADELINE, spoken]
You don't know what you're saying
You can't leave us
[HELEN, spoken]
I'm already falling apart
[ERNEST]
I met the perfect woman
[HELEN]
We were never perfect, Ernest
[ERNEST]
And I've ruined both our lives
[MADELINE, spoken]
I was pretty perfect, just saying
[ERNEST]
Now look at all the ugly things we've done
We've had our fun
But this, I can't survive
So, goodbyе
[MADELINE & HELEN]
Why?
[ERNEST]
Why fight time
And deny yourself a lifе that ends?
I would gladly rather die than outlive all my friends
I'd rather lose my keys
Lose my faculties
Then, finally, succ*mb to some old man disease
How lovely that will be
To know mortality
'Til my final breath
'Til death
[MADELINE, spoken]
No
[HELEN, spoken]
Ernest
[VIOLA, spoken]
At least it stopped the singing
