pulp musicals - penumbra lyrics
narrator:
the next day
when morning came
the mortar dried
on the finished satellite
herschel smiled
anna cried as rose painted
the word sagitta on the side
herschel:
just like our game on the ship
rose:
how so?
herschel:
this satellite will live among the stars, miss
stratford. she will forever be known as the
sagitta
rose:
‘followed by dreamers everywhere’
i could get used to adventure
herschel:
exploring the heights
rose:
and starting anew
rose, herschel:
i could get used to adventure
rose:
after years of imagining
herschel:
it’s finally happening
rose:
and i can share it with…
anna:
hershey! we did it!
herschel:
(catching himself) yes, nova, we did it!
anna:
rose, darling, isn’t it something?
rose:
it’s amazing, anna, congratulations
narrator:
samuel sat atop the satellite
with a notebook in his hand
he had to write final observations
before the launch sequence began
samuel:
words don’t often fail me
but looking down along this ramp
towards the flywheels spinning
then across the jungle and the camp
i wish that i could draw!
the morning sky is perfect
not a single cloud can be seen
soon the sphere will sling+shot
to beyond from here, between
margaret:
always with your notebook
samuel:
(off guard) margaret, hi + no, i mean + yes. (sighs)
i just want to remember this moment
margaret:
the sphere’s top hatch is still open
samuel:
i can’t bring myself to close it. once it’s shut+
margaret:
it’s over?
samuel:
what’s going to happen afterwards? do we stay
in township number nine? do we stay
together? are you and i going to be okay? (beat)
we barely talk anymore
margaret:
i’ve lived so long in shadows
that all i knew was dark
so i hurried to the sun, not thinking
at the first sign of a spark
now, you know belief is priceless
and sacred trust is to be earned
i wanted to believe you
and in the end, it left me burned
now, where we go from here
samuel, i don’t know…
(beat) wait, what’s that?
