The Old Therebefore / Singing at Snakes Lyrics by Rachel Zegler, James Newton Howard

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (Music from & Inspired By)

2023

[LUCY GRAY]
You're headed for heaven
The sweet old hereafter
And I've got one foot in the door
But before I can fly up
I've loose ends to tie up
Right here, in the old therebefore
I'll be along
[CORIOLANUS, spoken]
Doctor Gaul, she won
[LUCY GRAY]
When I've finished my song
When I've shut down the band
[CORIOLANUS, spoken]
It's over, let her out
[LUCY GRAY]
Played out my hand
[FESTUS, spoken]
Why aren't they attacking her?
[LUCY GRAY]
Paid all my debts
Have no regrets
[CORIOLANUS, spoken]
Must be the singing
[LUCY GRAY]
Right here
[CORIOLANUS, spoken]
It's calming them
[LUCY GRAY]
In the old therebefore
[FESTUS, spoken]
She can't sing forever
[LUCY GRAY]
I'll catch you up
When I've emptied my cup
When I've worn out my friends
When I've burned out both ends
When I've cried all my tears
When I've conquered my fears
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
I'll bring the news
When I've danced off my shoes
When my body's closed down
When my boat's run aground
When I've tallied the score
And I'm flat on the floor
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
When I'm pure like a dove
When I've learned how to love
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
