[00:00:00] Dust and Ashes - Josh Groban/Original Broadway Chorus of Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812

[00:00:00] Written by：Dave Malloy

[00:00:23] Is this how I die

[00:00:29] Ridiculed and laughed at

[00:00:33] Wearing clown shoes

[00:00:41] Is this how I die

[00:00:46] Furious and reckless

[00:00:49] Sick with booze

[00:00:57] How did I live

[00:01:00] I taste every wasted minute

[00:01:05] Every time I turned away

[00:01:13] From the things that might have healed me

[00:01:16] How long have I been sleeping

[00:01:24] Is this how I die

[00:01:28] Frightened like a child

[00:01:31] Lazy and numb

[00:01:37] Is this how I die

[00:01:41] Pretending and preposterous

[00:01:46] And dumb

[00:01:50] How did I live

[00:01:54] Was I kind enough and good enough

[00:01:57] Did I love enough

[00:02:05] Did I ever look up

[00:02:06] And see the moon

[00:02:08] And the stars

[00:02:10] And the sky

[00:02:11] Oh why have I been sleeping

[00:02:18] They say we are asleep

[00:02:21] Until we fall in love

[00:02:24] We are children of dust and ashes

[00:02:30] But when we fall in love we wake up

[00:02:34] And we are a god

[00:02:37] And angels weep

[00:02:43] But if I die here tonight

[00:02:48] I die in my sleep

[00:02:57] All of my life I spent searching the words

[00:03:00] Of poets and saints and prophets and kings

[00:03:02] And now at the end all I know that I've learned

[00:03:04] Is that all that I know is I don't know a thing

[00:03:07] So easy to close off

[00:03:09] Place the blame outside

[00:03:11] Hiding in my room at night

[00:03:14] So terrified

[00:03:16] All the things I could have been

[00:03:18] But I never had the nerve

[00:03:21] Life and love

[00:03:23] I don't deserve

[00:03:25] So all right all right

[00:03:28] I've had my time

[00:03:30] Close my eyes

[00:03:32] Let the death bells chime

[00:03:35] Bury me in burgundy

[00:03:38] I just don't care

[00:03:40] Nothing's left

[00:03:42] I looked everywhere

[00:03:44] Is this how I die

[00:03:47] Was there ever any other way my life could be

[00:03:54] Is this how I die

[00:03:57] Such a storm of feelings inside of me

[00:04:04] But then why am I screaming

[00:04:07] Why am I shaking

[00:04:10] Oh god was there something that I missed

[00:04:18] Did I squander my divinity

[00:04:23] Was happiness within me the whole time

[00:04:31] They say we are asleep

[00:04:34] Until we fall in love

[00:04:38] We are children of dust and ashes

[00:04:44] But when we fall in love we wake up

[00:04:48] And we are a god

[00:04:51] And angels weep

[00:04:57] But if I die here tonight

[00:05:02] I die in my sleep

[00:05:10] They say we are asleep

[00:05:13] Until we fall in love

[00:05:23] And I'm so ready

[00:05:27] To wake up now

[00:05:30] I want to wake up

[00:05:33] Don't let me die while I'm like this

[00:05:38] I want to wake up

[00:05:41] God don't let me die while I'm like this

[00:05:46] Please let me wake up now

[00:05:49] God don't let me die while I'm like this

[00:05:55] I'm ready

[00:05:59] I'm ready

[00:06:07] To wake up
