song

Look My Way (from Helluva Boss) (a rewrite by me)

Sung by both Lucy Carlyle and Anthony Lockwood 

Lockwood:

It is expected

A bond by blood to keep the home

And the starlight passing overhead

Sees all the skills I've honed

I am a guardian

A leader heading all our fights

Yet, I find myself getting distracted 

On those frightening moonlit nights

Let me hold you, keep you close to me

I long to hear your voice

But Lucy, I know better know

I must give you this choice

Keeping you safe is my one need

Or do you want to hear me plead?

Just look my way, just look my way

Is there something more that I don't know

That you won't say 'til we've both grown cold?

Just stay, please stay

Look my way

Lucy:

This unspoken feeling

What we went through for knowledge gained

If that's all that is, when you're not here

Has it caused this rooted pain?

I don't care that you pay my expenses

Or you’re walled in your own defenses

Why can't you understand?

Let me explain

And I'm terrified, as I cry

To make these feelings true

What's left for me in this haunted home

If I cannot save you?

Lockwood:

Unless it's me?

And no matter what in this world I could give

Lucy:

It's not enough

To get through the walls you've conjured up to live

Is this how you feel?

Abandoned, forced to fend for yourself when you were young

I will grant you this mercy, my prying into your soul needs to end

Lockwood:

I will try to make amends

For making you means to an end

So, look my way, please, look my way

Lucy:

And if there's something more that I don't know?

I'll save us both before we grow cold

I will stay, if you say

"Look my way"
