<b>Chase The Morning</b> by <i>Repo: The Genetic Opera</i><br />Mag:

Shilo?

Is your name Shilo?

Can I talk to you?

Can you come down please?

Shilo:

Why?

Mag:

So we can speak

I saw you at the show

I thought I'd seen a ghost

Your resemblance is striking

You have your mother's eyes, her hair

I was told you died with her

All these years have come and gone

How do I put this?

I'm your- Godmom

Shilo:

State your business

Mag:

Business?

Shilo:

What do you want?

Mag:

I want, I want to finally meet you

Something real to cling,

To leave you

With the hope that you will go do

All you're meant to,

All I failed to

In you is a world of promise

We have both been kept in bondage

But you could learn from all my failures

Shilo:

I'm not suppose to talk to strangers

Mag:

Or let them through the gate?

Shilo:

That either

A big risk

Mag:

A big fence

Shilo:

A big mistake

Mag:

A new friend

Marni:

Chase the morning

Yield for nothing

Chase the morning

Yield for nothing

Shilo:

Oh my god, mom!

How'd you do that?

Mag:

Do what?

Shilo:

Do that, that eye thing

Mag:

These eyes can do more than see

Shilo:

I know. I mean,

I've seen you sing

Mag:

Where?

Shilo:

From my window

I can see the world from there

Name the stars and constellations

Count the cars and watch the seasons

Mag:

I wish we could have watched together

Shilo:

I can't have guests

Mag:

Never?

Shilo:

Ever

If Dad found out that I'd been let out

Or that you'd been let in

Mag:

I should go then

Before I do

Promise me you won't

Shilo:

Better that you don't.

Mag:

Don't forget a sheltered rose

Needs a little room to bloom

Outside her bedroom

(Shilo:

It's best if I resume my life

Inside my bedroom.)

Marni:

Chase the morning

Yield for nothing

Chase the morning

Yield for nothing

Mag:

Let your life be a dream

Integrity, honesty

It's too late for me

Don't look back

'Till you're free to chase the morning

Marni:

Yield for nothing

Chase the morning

Yield for nothing

Yield for nothing
