LIVIN' IT UP ON TOP.

on the road to hell, there was a lot of waiting.

she's never early, always late.

these days she never stays for long.

good things come to those who wait.

i'm an outdoor girl.

are you wondering where i've been?

brother, when you're down, you're down.

when you're up, you're up.

let's not talk about hard times.

pour the wine, it's summertime!

right now we're livin' it.

who makes the summer sun shine bright?

who's doing the best she can?

let me tell you something that my mama said to me.

you take what you can get, and you make the most of it.

who says times are hard?

brother, pass that bottle around.

to the patroness of all of this, [ name ]!

ALL I'VE EVER KNOWN.

i was alone so long, i didn't even know that i was lonely.

out in the cold so long, i didn’t even know that i was cold.

this is how it's always been.

all i've ever known is how to hold my own.

now i wanna hold you, too.

for a moment i forget just how dark and cold it gets.

i don't wanna ever have to let you go.

i don't wanna go back to the lonely life.

i knew you before we met and i don’t even know you yet.

all i know is you’re someone i have always known.

say that you’ll hold me forever.

say that we'll stay with each other and it will always be like this.

WAY DOWN HADESTOWN.

that was not six months!

better go and get your suitcase packed.

guess it's time to go.

did you ever wonder what it's like on the underside?

but those who go they don’t come back.

down there, it's a bunch of stiffs.

brother, i'll be bored to death.

gonna have to import some stuff just to entertain myself.

takes a lot of medicine to make it through the wintertime.

where do you think they come from?

an eye for an eye!

you're early.

i missed you.

A GATHERING STORM.

he came too soon.

he came for her too soon.

it's not supposed to be like this.

this is how it is.

hey, where are you going?

touched by the gods is what he was.

i have to finish the song.

finish it quick!

the wind is changing.

there's a storm coming on.

we need food.

we need firewood.

did you hear me? [ name ]?

EPIC II.

his loneliness moves in him, crude and black.

he thinks of his wife in the arms of the sun and jealousy fuels him and feeds him.

with a million hands, he builds a wall.

ROAD TO HELL.

once upon a time there was a railroad line.

don't ask where, brother, don't ask when.

it was a world of gods and men.

it's an old song.

it's an old tale from way back when.

there were three old women all dressed the same.

ride that train to the end of the line.

see, someone's got to tell the tale.

it's a sad tale.

it's a tragedy.

don't forget that times are hard.

let me introduce you to a few of them.

his mama was a friend of mine.

it's a love song.

he was touched by the gods themselves.

ANY WAY THE WIND BLOWS.

she was no stranger to the world.

the weather ain't the way it was before.

ain't no spring or fall at all anymore.

it's either blazing hot or freezing cold any way the wind blows.

there ain't a thing that you can do.

do you hear that sound?

ain't nobody gonna stick around when the dark clouds roll.

anybody got a match?

gimme that.

people turn on you just like the wind.

everybody is a fair weather friend.

in the end, you're better off alone.

ain't no length to which a girl won't go.

sometimes you think just to fill your belly full of food.

you know how those muses are.

this poor boy, he wore his heart out on his sleeve.

you might say he was naïve to the ways of the world.

he had a way with words.

and it ain't because i'm kind.

i took him underneath my wing and that is where he stayed until one day…

COME HOME WITH ME.

you wanna talk to her?

[ name ]? don't come on too strong.​

come home with me.

who are you?

is he always like this?

your name is like a melody.

oh, a liar, and a player too!

i've met too many men like you.​

he's not like any man you've met.​

tell her what you're workin' on.​

i'm workin' on a song.

i haven't seen a spring or fall since… i can't recall.​

oh, he's crazy.​..

why would i become his wife?

what else ya got?

WEDDING SONG.

who's gonna buy the wedding bands?

times being what they are - hard and getting harder all the time.

lover, when i sing my song all the rivers'll sing along.

the river's gonna give us the wedding bands.

who's gonna lay the wedding table?

so when you sing your song the one you're working on spring will come again?

why don't you sing it then?

it isn't finished.

you wanna take me home?

how'd you do that?

even so, it can do this?

EPIC I.

where'd you get that melody?

i don’t know. it came to me as if i'd known it all along.

you’ve heard that melody before?

remember the tale i told you once about the gods?

i remember now, but that was long ago.

tell it again though.

without her above, not one flower would grow.

the gods sang his song of love.

that was long ago, before we were on this road.

it's a STARTER call! hit that heart and i will write you a starter! if you have a verse you are most wanting let me know!

me versus the the urge to reblog rp memes after i have a Day at work
