Matt Doyle - See Me lyrics

[CLAIRE, spoken] Hello? [PETER] Mother I need to talk to you [CLAIRE, spoken] Peter! Honey, I was just gonna call you [PETER] There's something that you need to know [CLAIRE, spoken] Gone a week, I miss you already [PETER] I'm just gonna spit it out [CLAIRE, spoken] How are rehearsals going? [PETER] You probably guessed it years ago Still it's kinda hard to say [CLAIRE, spoken] Peter, we're so excited about the play! [PETER] It's something that I've spent so long not saying [CLAIRE, spoken] I called your father; he swore he'd be there [PETER] Sometimes it's on the tip on my tongue But only spoken aloud, alone while I'm praying [CLAIRE, spoken] I'd like to tape it but honestly Peter, I'm not gonna be one of those parents [PETER] All I ask is an open-mind [CLAIRE, spoken] Peter, perhaps now isn't the best time... [PETER] It's such a lonely bridge to cross [CLAIRE, spoken] I'm taking Nanna to lunch [PETER] I search for answers on my own [CLAIRE, spoken] She's so proud of you, Peter [PETER] And find that I'm completely lost (spoken) Mom, please don't say anything else. Just listen. I don't know where to start. God, I can't get the words out; It's like they're all jumbled together. Mom, I love you and— [CLAIRE, sung] Berkley took their wait list When they called I almost died Would you really go to Berkley? I didn't know that you'd applied... [PETER, spoken] Mom, please listen to me... [CLAIRE] Where did Notre Dame go? I didn't know that you withdrew People will be disappointed Have you really thought this through? [PETER, sung] Mom, this is important Mom, you need to listen Please don't shut me out here Mom, you need to see me [CLAIRE] Peter, please I'm so busy here; Let me call you later dear [PETER] God this is so hard to say I'm so afraid you'll turn away Mom, I'm— [CLAIRE] Peter, please, I need a break Whatever it is we'll have to wait I'm going to hang up now I really need to hang up now [PETER] Don't hang up this took such courage I'm dying here, I'm all alone I know you know you know what I'm saying Just let me tell you: Mom, I'm— [CLAIRE] Peter, please, I can't solve all your problems [PETER] Mother you know nothing of them And I'm not expecting you to find solutions Just be my Mom and my friend See me... [CLAIRE, spoken] I a**ure you I'm in no state of mind to discuss anything right now [PETER] I've been waiting to tell you this since I was twelve [CLAIRE, spoken] Peter, I'm going to go now [PETER] You don't want to hear it You don't want to see me Can't bear to see me [CLAIRE, sung] Peter you tend to dramatize [PETER] There's a reason for that mother: Open your eyes... [CLAIRE] Peter, please, I have to go now I really need to go right now I'll call you [PETER] When mom, when are you going to call? [CLAIRE, spoken] Soon, Peter, this week, this weekend... [PETER] We can work this out together! [CLAIRE, spoken] Maybe before then you'll work whatever this is out... [PETER] This is always on my mind [CLAIRE, spoken] I have so much on my mind [PETER] Please don't hang up.... [CLAIRE, spoken] I have to go [PETER] Please, see me
