Confession Lyrics by Rachael Duddy, Ashley Pérez Flanagan, Hannah Whitney

In The Green (Original Cast Recording)

2020

[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
Agathe shares the bed with me
But she has not been there at night for weeks
Where does she go when she leaves through the window?
I want to see
[HILDEGARD]
I follow her across the river
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
I see Agathe and a man on a bed of leaves
[HILDEGARD]
She doesn't see me
[HILDEGARD (EYE & HAND)]
No, no, no-no...
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
I don't want Agathe to leave me
So I tell Mama what I saw about Agathe and the man
And Mama's angry
Agathe's in trouble
And it's all because of me
Now Agathe's changing
She's swollen with somеthing
What has gotten into her?
[HILDEGARD]
What has gotten into hеr?
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
Agathe shares the bed with me
But she can't sleep so she wakes me
She needs something to take the swelling from her belly
It's something from the river she needs
[HILDEGARD]
So we go across the river
[HILDEGARD (EYE) and (MOUTH & HAND)]
It's so dark I can barely see
(No, no, no-no...)
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH) and (EYE & HAND)]
It's so quiet, Agathe tells me not to speak
(No, no, no-no...)
[HILDEGARD (HAND) and (EYE & MOUTH)]
She needs my help, she needs me!
(No, no, no-no...)
[HILDEGARD]
We pick pennyroyal by the banks of the river
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
She eats--
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
One, two, three--
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
Lavender petals
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
She eats--
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
One, two, three--
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
Minty leaves
[HILDEGARD]
Agathe staggers but says she'll feel better if we wait
Then she falls to her knees
Agathe's bleeding
And I'm not helping
"Don't look, don't speak, just stay with me"
Agathe pleads, Agathe bleeds
"Don't look, don't speak, just stay with me"
Agathe pleads, Agathe bleeds
[HILDEGARD (HAND), (EYE), and ((MOUTH))]
A-ga-the bleeds
(Agathe bleeds, and bleeds
And bleeds, and bleeds)
((Agathe bleeds, and bleeds
And bleeds, and bleeds, and bleeds))
Hours
(Hours)
((Hours))
[HILDEGARD]
Pass
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
Agathe stares ahead at me but she does not stir
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
The sun rises and I can see the blood on her
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
I open my mouth to scream, but she whispers
[HILDEGARD]
Oooooh...
She laid down to sleep by the river
But never awoke
I stayed with her by the river
And I broke
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
I shouldn't have seen!
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
Shouldn't have said!
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
I shouldn't have led her across the river!
[HILDEGARD (EYE)]
I shouldn't have seen!
[HILDEGARD (MOUTH)]
Shouldn't have said!
[HILDEGARD (HAND)]
I shouldn't have led her across the river!
