Part 1
Mag:
Shilo?
Is your name Shilo?
Can I talk to you?
Can you come down please?
Shilo:
Why?
Mag:
So we can speak
I saw you at the show
I thought I'd seen a ghost
Your resemblance is striking
You have your mother's eyes, her hair
I was told you died with her
All these years have come and gone
How do I put this?
I'm your . . . Godmom
Shilo:
State your business
Mag:
Business?
Shilo:
What do you want?
Mag:
I want, I want to finally meet you
Something real to cling to, leave you
With the hope that you will go to
All you're meant to, all I failed to
In you is a world of promise
We have both been kept in bondage
But you could learn from all my failures
Shilo:
I'm not suppose to talk to strangers . . .
Mag:
Or let them through the gate?
Shilo:
That either, a big risk
Mag:
A big fence
Shilo:
A big mistake
Mag:
A new friend
Marni:
Chase the morning
Yield for nothing
Chase the morning
Yield for nothing
Shilo:
Oh my god, mom!
How'd you do that?
Mag:
Do what?
Shilo:
That, that eye thing
Mag:
These eyes can do more than see
Shilo:
I know, I mean, I've seen you sing
Mag:
Where?
Shilo:
From my window; I can see the world from there
Name the stars and constellations
Count the cars and watch the seasons
Mag:
I wish we could have watched together
Shilo:
I can't have guests
Mag:
Never?
Shilo:
Ever
If Dad found out that I'd been let out
Or that you'd been let it -
Mag:
I should go, then, before I do
Promise me you won't
Shilo:
Better that you don't
Mag:
Don't forget a sheltered rose
Needs a little room to bloom
Outside her bedroom
Shilo:
It's best if I resume my life
Inside my bedroom
Marni:
Chase the morning
Yield for nothing
Chase the morning
Yield for nothing
Mag:
Let your life be a dream
Integrity, honesty
It's too late for me
Don't look back
Unil you're free to chase the morning
Marni:
Yield for nothing
Chase the morning
Yield for nothing
Yield for nothing
Part 2
Mag:
Hi, Nathan.
Nathan:
Mag . . .
How did you get in here?
Don't you have a show tonight?
Mag:
How are you, Nathan?
Nathan:
Busy
Mag:
You never were a man of many words, Nate
You told me Shilo died
Nathan:
Listen -
Mag:
Nathan, I promised your late wife
I'd be present in Shilo's life
Nathan:
Please, Mag
Shilo's very ill
It's not safe for her to see people
I need to give her her medication
Shilo:
Dad, let her stay in here
Nathan:
No, she's leaving
Shilo:
Please hide her here
Nathan:
From what?
Shilo:
She'll be dead
Nathan:
Look, I told her she was sick
Mag:
Nathan you are hurting me
Shilo:
Dad!
Nathan:
My daughter needs her rest
Mag:
I'll be fine, Shilo
Don't you fret
Shilo:
Repossessions are dangerous
(Shilo, go to bed)
You're not safe
Dad, she's not safe
(Shilo, go to bed)
Mag:
Shilo, don't you fret
Nathan:
Leave my daughter, she is sick
(Your daughter's become a slave)
Mag:
You've turned this house into a zoo
(I can't have this)
Marni wouldn't want this for you
(I'm not going to ask again)
Set her free, set her free!
(Please don't leave, please don't leave! )
Shilo:
Come back!
Nathan:
Keep it down, Shi
Shilo:
Come back!
Nathan:
It's your bedtime, it's late
Shilo:
Dad, am I -
Nathan:
Please
Shilo:
She will die
Nathan:
Nonsense
Shilo:
It's arrived, Dad
Nathan:
Nonsense
Shilo:
It's a contract
Nathan:
A contract?
Shilo:
Come and see
Nathan:
Nonsense
Shilo:
Come see!
Mag's in trouble, Dad
Nathan:
Where'd you get this?
Shilo:
Read it, Dad
A Repo Man will come and take Mag's eyes!
Nathan:
There are things in life
That we do best to leave alone
Shilo:
She'll die, you must help her, Dad
(That are beyond control)
You must stop her
Please, Dad
(That you don't want to know)
Will you save Mag?
She will lose her eyes
Unless you stop this Repo Man
Nathan:
Shilo, this is senseless
(Dad, you have to try)
Shilo, this is pointless!
(You can't let her die! )
Shilo, Please shut up!
(Dad -)
