Perfection. Lyrics, music, harmonies, the singers. Thank you.
I need someone to spoil this whole musical for me.
Hahaha ;)
So many people tell me what I can be And from a young age, immediately I knew Exactly what I wanted to do Out there a dream is waiting to be achieved Out there for someone, maybe all preconceived Who knows, just how this journey goes But I - I know that I'm not the only one that's climbing As high, to be The one they call on the stage Finally in the light Who's been chasing this day Where things all lock in right Still I look around me Everyone fighting for a sign But someday I will break from the line I really try to stay away from the blues This path is hard, but it's the one that I choose So there - life isn't easy anywhere All this power in other hands I'm not the only one who understands this ride Filled with passion I just can't hide So I - I know that I'm not the only one that's aiming To fly through the sky and be The one they call on the stage Finally in the light Who's been chasing this day Where things all lock in right Still I look around me Everyone struggling to shine But someday I will break from the line I have to, I need to Keep trying 'til I'm there And fine I get it It's not always fair But it'll be me they call on the stage Finally in the light Who's been chasing this day Where things all lock in right So now it's time to believe Now it's time to believe One day I will receive That one big break My break from the line
gave me chills ❤
if i said peter and jason’s origin story. well. i’d be right
I STILL come back to this because the scene or the melody pop into my head completely unprovoked. Great song, great performance.
Hi! Is there an instramental? :)
❤ che voci 👏 👏 👏 👏 bravissimi😊
this is so beautiful
This song has been on repeat for the last two hours!! 😍❤️
Bro on the far right is falling hard <3
Yup this song is a banger
That's a beautiful song!
I love this song so much - I discovered it through ben's performances and I was blown away - you are a genius :D
❤♥️
Can you make a Karaoke or instrumental version
would this be part of the In Pieces musical? it'd be interesting if it is... if not it's still great! Cool song ;)
It is! The song is sung between Charlie (who also sings “Me and Mr. Popularity”) and Grey (who is the Mr. Popularity Charlie sings about ❤️)
@@JoeyContreras I’m sooo happy to hear that! I’m excited to hear and see this with Anson! He is a wonderful Charlie and super talented (this version is amazing too). Crazy how I’ve seen this video so long ago and was anticipating what theater play it was going to be in for! 💙💙💙 Is crazy how
I am so excited for this musical!
Also when is the book coming out?

Is there music for this song?
Big fan of Andrew. Liked him in no hard feelings and a tourist guide to love. He should do more romcoms and sing
situationships be like
100%
I love him so much. 😕
I'm kind of obsessed with Grey and Charlie even though I only know pieces (pun intended) of their relationship
Awww well there may be more pieces of Grey and Charlie’s relationship released soon 😏
Literally keep listening daily.
2024 and i’m still replaying this masterpiece 🥺🥰
I need a backing track to this sooooo badly! Such a beautiful song 😍
It’s available in the store on my website :)
Absolutely FANTASTIC!!! One of my favorite songs from the show 🥰🥰
I came here to find a version of David Archuleta singing this, but I’m very much okay with listening to the flawless vocals of Ben🥹! Never a note out of place! He has built in auto tone in his voice and his runs😳, so crisp and accurate! His choices here were so great! I screamed out loud at some of those note and run choices! I would love to hear this as duet between Ben and David, imagine that insanity😮👏!
I can't stop listening to this song! I'm asking to sing it in my voice lesson this coming semester!
Can he please do an album? I saw him in Toronto in Beautiful and he was so awesome. 🤩
Thank you Spotify's Discover Weekly for introducing to this song. It's a work of genius
Still, I'm listening 🥹🥹
I CANNOT stop watching this - i need the full production asap!!!
i would sell my kidneys for a backing track x
Sheet music is available now on forgetmenotmusical.com but we can maybe also get a backing track available soon! :)
@@JoeyContrerasis she singing in the same key of the “higher voice” sheet music ?
Yes :)
Here are the lyrics! :) I’m usually an open book Not trading looks on the sly Makes me feel like I’m lying but those butterflies I question who I was before, cause he unlocks a door I never knew I wanted to walk through I’ve never been like Pete Yearning to pound a city street And happy on this coastline No need to design some other life But is there room for more joy? For a boy who makes me dream of diamond rings While promising me the simple things Can I choose him and stay who I’ve been? Keep on the same road dusk til dawn but just live a little, a little, a little outside the lines I’ve drawn I’ve always been so good Doing everything I should to carry us since mom died Yeah, I’ve really tried to make a home Cause Dad and Pete, they need me I’m the key to us all keeping sunny moods To improving their harsh attitudes Can I pull back just a tiny bit? And not feel like I’m moving on if i live a little, a little, a little outside the lines I’ve drawn Oh, the risk wouldn’t be his kiss The risk is only in dad’s eyes But dad has to realize I couldn’t leave Our jagged shores, local stores, sweet corn, and dandelions The fresh bread I’ve made, it’s not a price I’ve paid, it’s part of me! Which makes me see I can hold down the fort Without both my feet on the court Can enter a new stage Embrace this blank page in my own book Cause there is room for more joy! For a boy, cause i don’t see a setting sun No limits, no, that’s it your done I can choose him and stay who I’ve been Cause I want it said when I’m gone, that I lived a little, a little, a little a little, a little, a little a little, a little a little outside the lines I’ve drawn
Music, Lyrics, Performance - I don't comment very often, but this is just beautiful, thank you so much! All the best from Germany :)
I would do anything for the full musical
I have been watching this clip of her on tiktok and I just love her tone and it’s just perfect
so funny...just when younger and older gays think they have nothing in common. so happy i had an older mentor to guide me through these feels. how many songs did we write? poems? letters that we'd never send. and what did they think of all this attention. i was tossing currency they would never be able to spend. i was left with an empty pocket then. it's all good now. it will be good for you too.
This is so beautiful
I’m doing this song for a competition and it’s SO MUCH FUN
You are adorable and so talented; keep doing what you're doing cause we neeed more of you in the world! 😊
真的太好听了,这个是音乐剧的片段还是什么呀?
Amazing song! Didn't see the lyrics anywhere so I just transcribed them here. All the best. I’m usually an open book Not trading looks on the sly Makes me feel like I’m lying, but those butterflies… I question who I was before, ‘Cause he unlocks a door I never knew I wanted to walk through. I’ve never been like Pete, Yearning to pound a city street. Been happy on this coastline. No need to design some other life. But is there room For more joy? For a boy who makes me dream of diamond rings, While promising me the simple things? Can I choose him and stay who I’ve been? Keep on the same road, dusk ‘till dawn, but just live A little, a little, a little, outside the lines I’ve drawn. I’ve always been so good. Doing everything I should To carry us since mom died. Yeah I’ve really tried to make a home. ‘Cause dad and Pete: they need me. I’m the key to us all keeping sunny moods, To improving their harsh attitudes. Can I pull back just a tiny bit And not feel like I’m moving on if I live A little, a little, a little, outside the lines I’ve drawn? Oh, the risk wouldn’t be his kiss. The risk is only in dad’s eyes. But dad has to realize I couldn’t leave Our jagged shores, local stores, Sweet corn and dandelions. The fresh bread I’ve made, It’s not a price I’ve paid, it’s part of me. Which makes me see… I can hold down the fort Without both my feet on the court. Can enter a new stage. Embrace this blank page in my own book. ‘Cause there is room for more joy. For a boy. ‘Cause I don’t see a setting sun. No limits, no, that’s it, you’re done. I can choose him and stay who I’ve been. ‘Cause I want it said when I’m gone That I lived A little, a little, a little A little, a little, a little, A little a little, a little outside the lines I’ve drawn.
Beautiful! Really draws you in ❤
Another gorgeous song, Joey!!!!✨
I wonder if I can do this for thespians districts??
