## Lyrics

i'm staring at a mirror of myself

all i see is someone else

call my name and ask for help (i feel fine)

wondering why i can't recognize

the look i see in my own eyes

they tear up but i feel fine (i feel so fine)

this can't be where i am

i know we're not broken just yet

so let's begin (to start again)

i won’t let this be where we end

i'll give you this to make our world brand new

despite the dark out there, there's a light we share

That cuts through all of the doubt we tell ourselves that we can't bear

give your voice a shout, your soul wants to be loud

don't be scared of drowning out the crowd and hearing your new sound

every time i look back in the mirror

missing pieces reappear

the parts of me i couldn't hear (now i am fine)

so lets pretend (until the end)

that maybe we could win this

nobody besides us can say that we're finished

this is where we are now

and we're not stopping here

this prison's now a battleground

and we'll show them what they fear

despite the dark out there, there's a light we share

That cuts through all of the doubt we tell ourselves that we can't bear

give your voice a shout, your soul wants to be loud

don't be scared of drowning out the crowd and hearing your new sound

i can't wait to see where i am

What we've done here has just begun

i know you hear me over there

i know you're afraid, don't be scared

staring at a mirror of myself

## Cutscene Dialogue

### Section one

Beat: So, look, I've never told you this story, but one night when I was still in college,

Beat: and yes I know, haha, make all the jokes you want about how short that was, but, anyway,

Beat: I went to a party, *very* under the drinking age, *very* not supposed to be there.

Beat: And hey, one of my professors was there. And she hands me a beer. So, THAT'S weird, right?

Beat: She wasn't trying to do anything gross, don't worry, this isn't going anywhere *bad* bad.

Beat: But it was still, you know, pretty bad of her. Like, let's be real.

Beat: The party wasn't a school event. She wasn't there to be, like, My Teacher.

Beat: I'm guessing she just didn't really think about it. I mean this was a grimy underground city party thing.

Beat: The vibe was not "social gathering". It was "break things."

Beat: The fact I was there at all and saw her was a total accident.

Beat: But I think about this *all the time*. I do not stop thinking about this!

Beat: That was one of the first moments I felt aware of the fact that that you look different to yourself from other people.

Beat: Because I got into this thing, very much an Event For Adults, and to everyone there I was just another person.

Beat: But I don't look at myself and see a fully grown person.

Beat: I just see a stupid kid.

### Section two

Quaver: "Ready to go on?"

Beat: "Yeah."
