[ELIZABETH]
Victor, Victor
You have a little brother
She said if it was a boy
You must call him William after your father
William's such a sober name
For that tiny
Victor, Victor
Your mother
She's dead
I'm sorry for your loss
The words cannot erase
I could see the pain and the fear
And the questions frozen in her face
We had to cut her open
Because the two won't last the night
So your father chose your unborn brother
Over his wife
They pulled the baby out
Your mother screamed for life
Until her blood ran out
And your fathеr cried
She's broken
Your hеart is broken
My head is broken
I can't unsee the horrors I saw
Ripped open
A hopeful life stolen
If it were me and you had to choose
Which one you had to lose, would you leave me broken?
It's eating me alive
Like a cancer in my mind
Thinking I so want to be a mother
But I don't want to die like that
And tell me, why do men
Always get to choose what happens to my body?
I digress, I'm sorry
This is not about me, this should be about you
I had so many dreams
Some I'm shy to share
This changes everything
'Cause I'm so scared
[VICTOR]
We're broken
We are born broken
No way to fix all the hurt and the pain
That's going to come
A problem
Unsolvable problem
[VICTOR & ELIZABETH]
Losing a mother is all part of life
But there's nothing gentle in saying goodnight
Knowing I can't shed a tear
'Cause I'm broken
