OH MY GOSH! That HARMONY HITS DIFFERENT KNOWING THEY WERE VICTIMS OF ABUSE. IT MADE ME SYMPATHIZE THEIR SITUATION MORE THAN I ALREADY GIVE THEM SYMPATHY. IT MAKES THE SONG MORE HAUNTING.
MARTHA There is a part I can’t tell About the dark I know well You say, ‘Time for bed now child,? Mom just smiles that smile Just like she never saw me Just like she never saw me So, I leave, wanting to hide Knowing deep inside You are coming to me You are coming to me You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight And then you hold me and you whisper, Child, the Lord won’t mind. It’s just you and me. Child, you’re a beauty. God, it’s good the lovin’ ain’t it good tonight? You ain’t seen nothing yet gonna treat you right. It’s just you and me Child you’re a beauty. ILSE I don’t scream, though I know it’s wrong I just play along I lie there and breathe Lie there and breathe I wanna be strong I want the world to find out That you’re dreamin’ on me Me and my ‘beauty’ Me and my ‘beauty’ BOTH You say all you want is just a kiss goodnight And then you hold me and you whisper, Child, the Lord won’t mind. It’s just you and me. Child, you’re a beauty. God, it’s good the lovin’ ain’t it good tonight? You ain’t seen nothing yet gonna treat you right. It’s just you and me Child you’re a beauty. There is a part I can’t tell About the dark I know well There is a part I can’t tell About the dark I know well There is a part I can’t tell About the dark I know well There is a part I can’t tell About the dark I know well
Okay so ilse and seamed as if they were singing at each other in anger instead of together in anger/fear/confusion. The blocking seamed uncomfortable and not spread out. I did like the set until it was you could see it was done too simply.
I may or may not be continuously repeating the first "there's a part I can't tell about the dark *mega beautiful harmonizing* i know weeeelllllllll. and I may or may not have went around school making everyone listen to that part...
