DEA
Don’t you understand, Father?
Even now, even now
You’re poisoned by the hole in his heart

URSUS
It wasn’t me who cut him
I hid the truth to help him
I wanted him to have a new start

DEA
You tried to steal my memory
The way you’ve stolen his
You’re poisoned by the hole in his heart

URSUS
My gift to my broken boy
Was a new beginning
I gave him a new beginning
A loving family
A family!

DEA
A family built on falsehood
Can’t be a loving family at all
You can’t build love out of lies
Because everything that lives in a love like that dies

URSUS
I did it out of love

DEA
You can’t build love out of lies

URSUS
I did it out of love

DEA
Because everything that lives in a love like that dies

URSUS
You listen to me, Dea
He’s found a new beginning
A new beginning, a new love
He’s happy

DEA
You hid the truth to save yourself

URSUS
You listen to me, Dea
He’s made a different choice now
To see him would be agony for you

DEA
Don’t you think I’m in agony already?
Don’t you think I’m in agony right now?

URSUS
I wanted us to go away to a land
Across the sea
Out there

DEA
You may think you love us in spite of your lies
But Grinpayne must learn that your love had a price
And to save his innocence, you stole his youth
I have to find him now and tell him the truth

Look at your shattered daughter
Tempered like steel by the storm and the wild
We were born broken but truth must be spoken
Broken but free is your motherless child
