swept away original broadway cast - the charnel house lyrics

Loading...

[mate, spoken]
not even here…
not even in this charnel house can i rid myself of you

[little brother, spoken]
we’re bound together, shipmate

[big brother, spoken]
lashed to the wheel

[captain, spoken]
and the waves are rising

[little brother, spoken]
do you not feel the spray?

[big brother, spoken]
and there’s no food

[little brother, spoken]
and there’s no water

[captain, spoken]
and the sun is blazing

[little brother, spoken]
and there’s no hope of rescue
[big brother, spoken]
you best drop to your knees, son

[captain, spoken]
find god if you can

[big brother, spoken]
pray your heart out

[captain, spoken]
wake heaven

[big brother, spoken]
salvation? he doesn’t believe in the word

[little brother, spoken]
have you told them our story?
it would beat shiloh hands down, wouldn’t it, big brother?

[big brother, spoken]
that it would, little brother

[little brother, spoken]
you should tell them our story

[captain, spoken]
we should be remembered
[big brother, spoken]
what you did

[little brother, spoken]
should be remembered

[mate, spoken]
what i did

[captain, spoken]
tell them our story

[mate, spoken]
let me die in peace!

[captain, spoken]
there’s no peace until you speak the words

[big brother, spoken]
no peace for you, or for us

[little brother, spoken]
we cannot escape

[big brother, spoken]
we cannot move on
[all except mate, spoken]
until you tell our story

[big brother, spoken]
and tell it true

[little brother, spoken]
and tell it all

[big brother, spoken]
bring it into the light

[little brother, spoken]
don’t be afraid of it anymore

[captain, spoken]
bring us into the light

[big brother, spoken]
release us

[little brother, spoken]
don’t you want to find some peace?

[captain, spoken]
some corner of heaven?

[big brother, spoken]
god only gives you but one chance to testify true
