No More

[BAKER]
No more questions
Please
No more tests
Comes the day you say, "What for?"
Please—no more

[MYSTERIOUS MAN]
We disappoint
We disappear
We die but they don't...

[BAKER, spoken]
What?

[MYSTERIOUS MAN]
They disappoint
In turn, I fear
Forgive, though, they won't...

[BAKER]
No more riddles
No more jests
No more curses you can't undo
Left by fathers you never knew
No more quests
No more feelings
Time to shut the door
Just—no more

[MYSTERIOUS MAN]
Running away—let's do it
Free from the ties that bind
No more dеspair
Or burdens to bear
Out therе in the yonder

Running away—go to it
Where did you have in mind?
Have to take care:
Unless there's a "where"
You'll only be wandering blind
Just more questions
Different kind

Where are we to go?
Where are we ever to go?

Running away—we'll do it
Why sit around, resigned?
Trouble is, son
The farther you run
The more you'll feel undefined
For what you have left undone
And, more, what you've left behind

We disappoint
We leave a mess
We die but we don't...

[BAKER]
We disappoint
In turn, I guess
Forget, though, we won't...

[BAKER & MYSTERIOUS MAN]
Like father, like son

[BAKER]
No more giants
Waging war
Can't we just pursue our lives
With our children and our wives?
Till that happy day arrives
How do you ignore
All the witches
All the curses
All the wolves, all the lies
The false hopes, the goodbyes
The reverses
All the wondering what even worse is
Still in store?

All the children...
All the giants…
