Promise

Lyrics

[JASON] Promise Webster's defines promise as a declaration That something will or will not be done [IVY] Where have you been? Is this some stupid game? I meant it when I said I need to talk to you [JASON] I understand, but Ivy, nothing's changed [IVY] You have no idea what I'm going through [JASON] I'll say it one more time I'm sorry I don't feel the same We had ourselves a moment, but it's gone My head's in 30 different places Please, just try to understand Let's leave things at that and just move on [IVY, spoken] That night... We weren't safe So tell me how we move on [JASON] I don't know what it is you want from me I don't have time to hear whatever tale you've spun I have to write this speech before tonight Plus, there are all these scenes I have to run [IVY] You know what I am saying I would never make this up You're a winner, pat your perfect back Way to go, you got me pregnant Put that in your fucking speech You wanted real Well, God, you'll give them that! [JASON, spoken] Shit, why are you doing this to me? Shit [IVY, JASON, IVY & JASON] But we're in this together (I've got to pull together) We'll take it one step at a time (Is this what I wanted?) Tell me, tell me what to do (Somehow we'll get through) And Jason, I still love you Someday maybe Love me? Someday maybe you can learn Maybe you can Maybe I can Maybe you can Learn to love me (You) too [IVY] Maybe, please [MATT] Maybe he would love you Maybe if he weren't that way He wouldn't treat your feelings like his toy Maybe he'd make you feel real special Like I always wanted to But he's already in love with a boy [IVY, spoken] What? [PETER, spoken] Am I late? What's going on? [NADIA] Jason, have you seen Ivy? I guess you have [JASON] You knew? [NADIA] Only since this afternoon [PETER] Knew what? [MATT] Ivy's pregnant and your boyfriend's the dad So what does that make you? [PETER] She's what? What the fuck are you talking about, "my boyfriend"? [MATT] Don't play dumb with me, Peter [JASON, spoken] Get the fuck out of here, Matt [MATT] Should I tell them what I saw at the rave? Look, I'm not here to judge Just keep everyone on the same page And, hey, I think I found that strong opening You were looking for in your speech [JASON, spoken] Whatever, Matt, whatever you saw, it was a rave [MATT] Are you gonna stand there and deny it? I know [JASON, spoken] You know, huh? You fucking know, huh? What the fuck do you know? [PETER, spoken] He knows, Jason He knows 'cause I told him It was after Ivy's birthday, we were drunk, I'm sorry No, you know what? I'm not [IVY, spoken] What is going on, Peter? Jason, is he kidding? Jason? [JASON] (spoken) Look, let's just run this scene (sung) If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this [JASON, PETER, spoken] Peter Don't Peter, I don't know understand what's happening I don't know what to do, you have to help me I tried Wait, you know what then? Fuck you, Peter! Fuck you! [NADIA] Jason, I don't know what to tell you Here's one idea I'd rule out calling dad I've thought it through and I confess I can't see through this mess Maybe being single's not so bad But you can solve this I know you can Don't forget that Take my hand Tell me what to do Or what to say Somehow we'll get through We'll find a way [JASON, spoken] Yeah, thanks, I know Can you leave me alone? I, I don't mean to be— I just—, I, I ca— [NADIA, spoken] Sure Call me tonight, or tomorrow, or whenever Just, just call me
