HADESTOWN SENTENCE STARTERS - PT II
taken from the broadway cast album. feel free to change pronouns, etc.
IF IT’S TRUE
‘ is this how the world is? ’ ‘ if it’s true what they say, i’ll be on my way. ’ ‘ everybody knows that walls have ears. ’ ‘ what’s the purpose of a man? ’ ‘ what’s the use of your backbone if you never stand upright? ’ ‘ but who are they to say what the truth is anyway? ’ ‘ the ones who tell the lies are the solemnest to swear. ’ ‘ the ones who load the dice always say the toss is fair. ’ ‘ i’m asking if it’s true. ’ ‘ i believe in us together more than anyone alone. i believe that with each other, we are stronger than we know. ’
HOW LONG?
‘ what are you afraid of? ’ ‘ have a drink, why don’t you? ’ ‘ he has the kind of love for her that you and i once had. ’ ‘ she means nothing to me. ’ ‘ ____, my light. ____, my darkness. ’ ‘ all of my sorrow won’t fit in my chest. it just burns like a fire in the pit of my chest. ’ ‘ nothing comes of wishing on stars. and nothing comes of the songs people sing, however sorry they are. ’ ‘ give them a piece, and they’ll take it all. ’ ‘ what do i care for the logic of kings? ’ ‘ you and your pity don’t fit in my bed. you just burn like a fire in the pit of my bed, and i turn like a bird on a spit in my bed. ’ ‘ how long? just as long as i am your wife. ’ ‘ it’s true, the earth must die. but then the earth comes back to life, and the sun must go on rising. ’
CHANT (REPRISE)
‘ you gotta keep your head low if you wanna keep your head. ’ ‘ if we’re free, tell me why i can’t look in my bother’s eye. ’ ‘ got to hand it to you: guess you don’t scare easy, do you? ’ ‘ are you brave, or stupid? ’ ‘ it takes more than singing songs to keep a woman in your arms. ’ ‘ if you want to hold a woman, hang a chain around her throat made of many carat gold; shackle her from wrist to wrist with sterling silver bracelets; fill her pockets full of stones, precious ones, diamonds; bind her with a golden band. ’ ‘ could i change my fate? ’ ‘ i was left behind. turned on one too many times. ’ ‘ give me one more song. ’ ‘ sing a song for me. make me laugh, make me weep. ’
EPIC III
‘ oh, it’s about me? ’ ‘ i know how it was, because he was like me: a man in love with a woman. ’ ‘ where’d you get that melody? ’ ‘ i didn’t know how, and i didn’t know why, but i knew that i wanted to take you home. ’ ‘ i saw you alone there, against the sky; it was like you were someone i’d always known. ’ ‘ it was like i was holding the world when i held you. like mine were the arms that the whole world was in. ’ ‘ what has become of the heart of that man now that he has everything? ’ ‘ the more you have, the more you hold, the greater the weight of the world on your shoulders; see how you labor beneath that load? afraid to look up, and afraid to let go. ’ ‘ you’ve grown so afraid that he’ll lose what you own. but what you don’t know is that what you’re defending is already gone. ’ ‘ where is the treasure inside of your chest? where is your pleasure? where is your youth? ’ ‘ where is the man with his arms outstretched to the woman he loves with nothing to lose? ’ ‘ you brought the world back into tune is what you did. ’ ‘ you know what they did? they danced. ’
PROMISES
‘ now what do i do? ’ ‘ take me home with you. ’ ‘ let’s go, let’s go right now! ’ ‘ it’s a long road. it’s a long walk. are you sure you wanna go? ’ ‘ i have no ring for your finger. i have no banquet table to lay. i have no bed of feathers, whatever promises i made. ’ ‘ i can’t promise you fair sky above. i can’t promise you kind road below. but i’ll walk beside you, love, any way the wind blows. ’ ‘ i don’t need a ring for my finger. i just need a steady hand to hold. ’ ‘ he can’t say no. ’ ‘ i don’t know where this road will end, but i’ll walk it with you, hand in hand. ’ ‘ do you let me walk with you? and keep on walking, come what will? ’
WORD TO THE WISE
‘ can we go? ’ ‘ gotta think quick, gotta save face. you’re caught between a rock and a hard place. ’ ‘ whatche gonna do now? ’ ‘ if you tell him no, you’re a heartless man. ‘ ‘ you’re gonna have a martyr on your hands. ’ ‘ if you let him go, you’re a spineless king, and you’re never going to get them in line again. ’ ‘ damned if you don’t, damned if you do. the whole damn nation’s watching you. ’ ‘ men are fools. men are frail. give them the rope, and they’ll hang themselves. ’
HIS KISS, THE RIOT
‘ with your kiss, the riot starts. ’ ‘ all my children came here poor, clamoring for bed and board. ’ ‘ have i made myself their lord just to fall upon the sword? ’ ‘ who will lead them? ’ ‘ who lays all our best-laid plans? ’ ‘ she’s out of sight, and he’s out of his mind. ’ ‘ every coward seems courageous in the safety of a crowd. ’ ‘ nothing makes a man so bold as a woman’s smile and a hand to hold. ’
WAIT FOR ME (REPRISE)
‘ well, the good news is, he said that you can go. ’ ‘ it’s a test. ’ ‘ the meanest dog you’ll ever meet, he ain’t the hound dog in the street. he bares some teeth and tears some skin, but that’s the worst of him. the dog you really got to dread is the one that howls inside your head. it’s him whose howling drives men mad, and a mind to its undoing. ’ ‘ wait for me, i’m coming with you. ’ ‘ show the way so we can see. show the way the world could be. ’ ‘ we will follow where you lead. ’ ‘ think they’ll make it? ’ ‘ you let them go. ’ ‘ are we gonna try again? ’ ‘ it’s time for spring. we’ll try again next fall. ’ ‘ wait for me? ’ ‘ you’ve got a lonesome road to walk. ’ ‘ i’ll tell you where the real road lies: between your ears, behind your eyes. that is the path to paradise, and likewise, the road to ruin. ’ ‘ we are not alone. ’
DOUBT COMES IN
‘ the wind is changing. ’ ‘ who am i? ’ ‘ why am i all alone? ’ ‘ are you listening? ’ ‘ i’m right here, and i will be to the end. ’ ‘ who am i against him? why would he let me win? ’ ‘ who am i to think that he wouldn’t deceive me just to make me leave alone? ’ ‘ i used to see the way the world could be, but now the way it is is all i see. ’
ROAD TO HELL (REPRISE)
‘ it’s an old song, and that is how it ends. that’s how it goes. ’ ‘ don’t ask how he could have come so close. the song was written long ago. ’ ‘ it’s a tragedy. ‘ ‘ here’s the thing: to know how it ends, and still begin to sing it again, as if it might turn out this time? i learned that from a friend of mine. ’ ‘ got a match? ’ ‘ he could make you see how the world could be in spite of the way that it is. can you see it? can you hear it? can you feel it like a train? is it coming? is it coming this way? ’
WE RAISE OUR CUPS
‘ pour the wine and raise a cup. ’ ‘ some birds sing when the sun shines bright. my praise is not for them, but the ones who sing in the dead of night: i raise my cup to them. ’ ‘ let all my singing follow you and bring you comfort. ’ ‘ goodnight. ’

“She’s not the kind who needs saving, she became her own knight in shining armour, she forged her own sword, and put on her own armour, she stepped into the flames with no fear of burning, she carried the weight of the world when no one asked her to. She became more than a saviour. She became her own hero.”

songcharme​:
Tumblr media
❝  You…hm, well— you weren’t joking it seems.  ❞ came the airy reply from the brunette. Lips pursed, her expression turning dour with faint disappointment. Ingrid did warn her of the spartan nature her wardrobe was but…this was just abysmal! A woman as beautiful as Ingrid should have at least a casual ensemble! No matter. Dorothea would make a miracle for Ingrid that she would enjoy ( even if the woman didn’t necessarily ask for it ). ❝  I shudder to think about what you wear casually, let alone at a social function! It’s alright— we can still salvage this.  ❞ The pep-talk came more at her own expense than Ingrid’s. ❝  I think I may have something in my trunk that will fit you— with a few adjustments of course, but it will be suitable for our purpose!  ❞
Tumblr media
Her gaze stayed on Dorothea and at the emotions displayed on the former songstress’ features she felt the deep urge to bury her face in her hands. Though that was surely not a suitable reaction and therefore Ingrid stopped herself from doing so. There’d been few social gatherings back home in Galatea, her father couldn’t afford lavish feasts or expensive clothes. Ingrid hadn’t mind it then, yet now, especially in this moment she did. “I must apologize. You shouldn’t need to bother with my wardrobe problems.” Before she could continue, Dorothea’s confident, optimistic tone took her by surprise and her eyes widened ever so slightly. “You- you think so? Well, I’d be grateful, but I wouldn’t want you to lose a dress to these alterations!”

fabledream​ / Mercedes :
Tumblr media
          ❝ Why, yes of course I’ve been looking for you! ❞  Flaxen brows rise up, a knowing smile playing upon her lips.  Mercedes knows all too well when Ingrid is fibbing, especially when it pertained to matters such as these. After all, she was quite the topic between her and Annie!  ❝ If I didn’t know any better, I’d feel as if you were purposefully avoiding me, but that’s silly isn’t it? ❞ She teases, eyes twinkling.  ❝ Now, if we head over to my room, we’ll have some lovely tea and biscuits, and we can talk all about the upcoming ball, how does that sound? ❞
Tumblr media
A slight red flashed over her face. Of course Mercedes knew. The elder girl seemed to notice even the smallest of details and moods and Ingrid admired her for that, among other things. Not reacting to the remark about purposely avoiding her seemed like the best way and so she concentrated on the rest instead. “Ah yes, the ball.” Ingrid averted her gaze to close the book she’d been reading. “I believe I could indeed use some help with the preparations”, she admitted eventually. At least tea and biscuits did sound marvellous.
