Burial Lyrics by Hannah Whitney, Grace McLean, Rachael Duddy, Ashley Pérez Flanagan

In The Green (Original Cast Recording)

2020

[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not helping
No matter what I do
It's not enough for you
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not helping
Find the light on your own
Leave me alone!
[JUTTA]
Okay, stay broken. Have it your way
[HILDEGARD]
Hmmmmmm---
[HILDEGARD (EYE) & {MOUTH}]
Why did you tell me to blink?
{Why did you tell me to eat?}
[BOTH]
I should have never done it
I should have stayed true
Why did I let myself down, down, down?
I should have never listened to you
You are not, you are not, you are not helping
You are irrational
Much too impractical
You are not, you are not, you are not helping
Why don't you disappear?
You don't belong herе!
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
You don't belong here!
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
You don't bеlong here!
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
You don't belong here!
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
You don't belong here!
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
If I don't belong, then what are you doing here?
Agathe's gone because you interfered
It started with you and the things that you saw
Remember, you saw Agathe's secret-
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
But maybe I saw it wrong
It doesn't matter
You couldn't keep it--
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
I wouldn't have said anything if you hadn't seen
And you--
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
And you--
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
I know
I was not, I was not helping
[HILDEGARD]
Agathe's bleeding
And I'm not helping
Agathe's bleeding
And I'm not helping
I just want to be a good girl
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
I keep my mouth shut
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
I close my eyes but
[HILDEGARD]
Agathe's bleeding
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
I'm not helping
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH and EYE)]
I just want to be a good girl
Don't speak, don't look, just be a good girl
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
I should have saved my sister
I should have taken her hand
We should have lived another life in another land
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not helping
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not helping
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not helping
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not helping
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
I should not have seen
I should not have seen
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
I wish I hadn't said anything
I wish I hadn't said anything
[HILDEGARD]
Agathe's gone
Mama gave me away
I have to move on, bury myself in the work
Jutta was wrong
I'll be broken always
I am not strong enough to watch, wait, try
Watch, wait, try
Watch, wait, try
Watch, wait, try
But I
Can dig and dig
Dig, dig, dig
Dig, dig, dig
Dig, dig, dig
Dig, dig, dig
[HILDEGARD (HAND) and (EYE and MOUTH)]
I may never become whole (Dig, dig, dig)
But I can bury myself in the work (Dig, dig, dig)
[HILDEGARD]
Dig, dig, dig
[HILDEGARD (HAND) and (EYE and MOUTH)]
The only thing I can control (Dig, dig, dig)
Is to bury myself in the work (Dig, dig, dig)
[HILDEGARD]
Dig, dig, dig
Bury myself, bury myself
Bury myself, bury myself
Bury myself, bury myself
Bury myself, bury myself
Bury myself
Bury myself
