BARYTONE
It's late, it's very late
How did it get so late?

SOPRANO
What was it we were thinking of?

BARYTONE & SOPRANO
We didn't want this,
did we?

ALTO
There must be some mistake

TENOR
What was it I forgot to tell you?

ALTO
What was it I forgot?

There was a promise here
A child who knew me

2 WOMEN
A bitter bedtime story

2 WOMEN
Another house of some forgotten family

2 MEN
It's late, it's very late

2 WOMEN
There must be some mistake

SOPRANO
And now this place
for none

BARYTONE
There was a woman here
A woman who knew me

BARYTONE & TENOR
A table set before me

TUTTI
It is the walls
it is the victory of the walls
It is the room
it is the distance of the room

MEN
Without her...

WOMEN
Without you.
