Dear Victor / Burn the Laboratory Lyrics by Frankenstein World Premiere Cast

Frankenstein (World Premiere Recording)

2008

[ELIZABETH]
Dear Victor, sweet Victor, I pray this finds you well
Please know that we miss you much more than words can tell
Are you consumed with study, your thoughts a world away
From all of those who love you and hope for word each day?
I know your passion's fury, the dream you must pursue
I only ask for compromise
Please realize, my dream begins with you
[VICTOR]
Elizabeth, it pains me so to have to keep this secret from you
I'm so ashamed that this is all my many months of work have come to
How I long to feel your warm embrace
And kill this failure's poison taste
[ELIZABETH]
Dear Victor, please answer
With words that reassure
[VICTOR]
I have no words to soothe her...
[ELIZABETH]
My heart clings to memories, yet longs for something more
[VICTOR]
And no strength to find them now
[ELIZABETH]
Where is the man who held me, who made me feel his fire
But does your silence prove it's true?
I've lost you to your only true desire!
[VICTOR]
Another man would gladly nestle in her loving arms forever
[ELIZABETH]
Dear Victor...
[VICTOR]
And here I am, alone and lost, inside a foolish failed endeavour
Have I gone where no man should dare go?
[ELIZABETH]
What are you keeping from me?
[VICTOR]
Every dream I seek, just beyond my reach
What is missing, what is wrong?
[VICTOR (spoken)]
Letters from Elizabeth, my father, Henry...
Why did I shut them out so?
Was it indifference...or shame?
[ELIZABETH]
Dear Victor, without you our house is not a home
Dear Victor...return to us
I miss you so, I need you so
[VICTOR]
You must never know...
[THE CREATURE (distantly)]
I'm...alive...!
[VICTOR]
Is it possible that wretched beast is capable of learning?
Have I left my greatest work and all my dreams behind me burning!?
I've done what I must, back to ash and dust!
That which never should have lived!
