BOTH
Look at me while I’m still here
Look at me before I vanish
Do you have any idea
JOE
Look at me while I’m still awake
MADDS
About all I can take
Look at me while I love you
JOE
Before I undo it all
BOTH
Just give me a sign
Just a whisper
That when you see me on the other side
You’ll recognize that I’m there
Just give me a call
I’ll give it my all
But how can you prove it to me this time you promise to care
MADDS
Look at the cuts and scrapes
JOE
Look at the cuts and scrapes
MADDS
Before they all wash away
JOE
Before they all wash away
BOTH
Do you have any idea
MADDS
Look at the bruises grow
BOTH
In places not to show
You should be much much smarter than this you know
Just give me a sign
Just a whisper
That when you see me on the other side
You’ll recognize that I’m there
Just give me a call
I’ll give it my all
But how can you prove it to me this time you promise to care
JOE
No guarantee
MADDS
No guarantee
JOE
That you are me
MADDS
That you are me
JOE
But I can’t
BOTH
See you when I meet your eyes
JOE
Fall silently
MADDS
Fall silently
BOTH
Will I ever be
Anything more than a reflection
JOE
Of who I used to be
MADDS
Just give me a sign
JOE
A sign
MADDS
Just a whisper
JOE
Whisper
MADDS
That when you see me on the other side
BOTH
You’ll/I’ll recognize that I’m there
MADDS
Just give me a call
JOE
I’ll give it my all
BOTH
But how can you prove it to me this time you promise to care
MADDS
Look at me while I’m still here
JOE
Look at me before I vanish
BOTH
Do you have any idea
MADDS
Look at me while you’re still awake
JOE
About all I can take
BOTH
Look at me while I love you
Before I undo it all
So when you look in the mirror
Do you see anyone at all?
