King Kong the Musical - Last of Our Kind Lyrics

ANN DARROW:
If I could break these chains
If I could stop the show
Nothing here would change, reality remains
There’s nowhere left to go

Neither can move forward
Neither one rewind
The pantomime is cast
And now we are the last of our kind

A monster with no soul
That’s what they see,
So that’s your role
You’ll beat your chest
I’ll scream my line
You’ll play your part
And I’ll play mine

I am just a woman
They say that’s how I’m designed
Speak only when I’m asked
And pray that I’m the last so brutally designed

From birth we’ve both been playing
A game we cannot win
Never break the locks
Or ever leave the box
The world has put us in

A prisoner of history
Another wasted mind
But ain’t we alive
Both you and I
We can can survive this you know

But first you gotta put on a show
Give a performance for the ages
Let everyone know
Our lives cannot be kept in cages
Put on a show
Stand up and roar and you’ll get though this
Put on a show
They will destroy you if you don’t do this

If I could break these chains
If I could stop the show
Nothing here would change, reality remains
There’s nowhere left to go
