Averno
Adelaide’s Path
[ENSEMBLE]
Oh
Round about the beacon we go
We’re never alone
Covens of flowers
And beds we call home

[MEG]
Watch how the stories unfold on their own

[ADELAIDE]
My favorite thing is walking home
From church on Sundays
Watching the birds, on my way home
Everything is as it should be
Not a feather or twig out of place
I brought disinfectant just in case
Cause if I were to fall
I’d disappear without a trace
My husband died last fall
I don’t feel him here at all
Everyone tells me when loved one’s diе
They’re aren’t rеally gone
So where are you?

[Chorus]
I’ve been down this path
A thousand times and more
Nothing has changed, but oh that forest floor
It never sparked interest in me before
But now that you’re gone, I’ve been wanting more
[VERSE]
Now that you’re gone
I have urges to stray off the road
I need something different, something exciting
To lighten the load
And maybe I’ll find a new friend
To help me feel less alone
I have a nice house, but I am looking for a home

[Chorus]
I’ve been down this path
A thousand times and more
Nothing has changed, but oh that forest floor
It never sparked interest in me before
But now that you’re gone, I’ve been wanting more

Not a feather or twig out of place
I built a high wall just in case
Cause if I were to fall
I fear that nothing at all would change
When will things change

[BEA]
When will things change

[GRACE]
When will things change
[CASSIA]
When will things change

[MEG]
I don’t want things to change

[ENSEMBLE]
Adelaide
Oh Adelaide
What will you change
Oh Adelaide

*Music Break*

[BEATRICE]
So we can be
Eachother’s new
A stranger world
I could share with you
My home is yours
And Adelaide
Will you stand by me for the rest of our...

[ADELAIDE]
I’ve been down this path
A thousand times and more
I’m changing my story, the rest of my life’s in store
My heart keeps on beating
Toward this distant shore
And now, I might be finding more
