Leslie Odom Jr - The World Was Wide Enough (Off-Broadway) lyrics

Gunshot [BURR] I strike him right between his ribs I walk towards him, but I am ushered away They row him back across the Hudson I get a drink [COMPANY] Aaaah Aaaah Aaaah [BURR] I hear wailing in the streets [COMPANY] Aaaah Aaaah Aaaah [BURR] Somebody tells me, “You'd better hide.” [COMPANY] Aaaah Aaaah Aaaah [BURR] They say [BURR AND ANGELICA] Angelica and Eliza— [BURR] Were both at his side when he died d**h doesn't discriminate Between the sinners and the saints It takes and it takes and it takes And history obliterates In every picture it paints It paints me and all my mistakes And when Alexander aimed At the sky He may have been the first one to die But I'm the one who paid for it I survived, but I paid for it Now I'm the villain in your history I was too young and blind to see... I should've known Oh I should've known The world was wide enough for both Hamilton and me The world was wide enough for both Hamilton and me
