edit/alter/change pronouns etc as you see fit! ACT ONE HERE.
i think my brother is a vampire.
he's been acting like a freak.
it's worse than i thought.
it's turning out to be a real shit week.
he may never be the same.
i am not killing my brother!
we're gonna kill your bro.
we're gonna need some stakes.
i remember how it used to be.
i remember how it used to be, times were innocent & love was free.
i was gonna change the world.
somehow it turn out to be that the world changed me.
i miss that flower child.
funny how it all turns out when you're too young to know what love's about.
i gave away a part of me.
i gave away a part of me & i'm paying for it now.
you should have seen me in my glory days.
you should have seen me in my glory days, before i learned to be afraid.
i'd be that alive again if i could only remember how.
maybe it's not too late for you now.
what if i could be braver than i've ever been before?
what if i could blame myself less, follow my heart more?
what if the mother in me could be messy & free, and hold it together at the same time?
what if my boys can mean the world to me & i can matter too?
what if that fearless girl in me can live in everything i do?
what if it all could be up to me?
belong to someone (reprise).
i know what it's like to lose.
i know what it's like when love turns into the deepest kind of bruise.
i know what it's like when the father who made you's the one who betrayed you.
i walked alone for a long century till i found my brothers & my brothers found me.
no one can hurt you ever again.
was it always out there? i missed it somehow.
i see it so clear in front of me now.
i'm ready for something more, something worth living for.
now you belong to someone.
now you belong to someone who is always near you, someone who really hears you.
your life has just begun.
all you have to do now, is take the last step. and then you'll be free.
and then you'll be free; from your past, from all of it. forever.
isn't this what you wanted? belonging to somebody else?
now forever you're haunted.
you've gone & truly lost yourself.
thought that you could be free, but you belong to me.
thou shall not die, but you belong to me.
i'm always in between a match & gasoline.
no matter what i choose, everything will burn.
the truth is, i never had a choice, a say in this, a voice.
i thought i stood a chance.
all of the light is gone, it's hard to see what's left of me to save.
i'm cornered, surrounded, no hope to be found.
i'm start to think this isn't a life.
can't escape it, can't ignore & it's always at my door.
i fear i'll be fighting forevermore.
now i'm here, counting the dead
now i'm here, counting the dead & all the blood that's shed.
all the blood that's shed amounts to nothing.
it's a heavy price to pay.
the violence of men is what rules us in the end.
in this world, you're either predator or prey.
it's a matter of when, what's the use in pretending?
you're damned if you do & you're damned if you don't.
so you run into battle & you swear you won't ever give in.
oh, to lay down all my weapons...
oh, to lay down all my weapons & believe that there could be another way.
i wish i could surrender.
there is no winning when we're living a never ending war.
he's gotta be the head vampire.
immortality is a hell of a late fee.
this dude is overdue to be a dead vampire.
everyone will wanna know us.
we cannot just kill someone.
we cannot just kill someone without confirming they're actually a vampire.
it's always better to ask for forgiveness than for permission.
there are still laws against murder!
we're gonna nail the head vampire!
what's going on is this town is crawling with vampires!
trust me, they do not joke.
i know this sounds crazy.
now you've pushed me too far.
i thought it was crazy too.
who do you think you are?
now everything's wrecked.
all the shit i allow backfires on me somehow.
i've been too blind to see the problem is me.
i'm waiting for the smoke to clear.
i'm running out of answers.
i've gotta make this right.
i gotta find what's real & hold on tight before i lose myself.
how could you do this to me?
i didn't want this to happen.
i didn't want this to happen, especially not to you.
oh, because you like me so much?
i begged you not to go in there.
they weren't gonna let you just leave.
i've taken hits way worse than this.
he'll find you. his blood is in your veins.
you were supposed to be my first.
it's getting harder & harder to resist.
i'm sorry... i wish we had never met.
you were a bolt of lightning, i had to know you.
you made me feel & it was frightening.
but my god, you burn so bright.
you see something in me, the dreamer i used to be.
lately all i can do is survive.
as long as i can keep you near.
i know we might run out of light.
but we can lose ourselves...
when you were a boy & i'd call for you, that was all that i ever had to do; you'd run right into my arms, were safe from harm.
i can't seem to reach your heart anymore.
i can't seem to reach your heart anymore, i wish that i knew what it was beating for.
now i call your name & it's not the same.
i wish you would scream, but you won't say a word.
how can i get through to you?
i would keep you safe if i knew what to do.
if i could go back, i'd change everything.
i'd take on the burden you're carrying.
all those years frozen in place, all the memories i tried to erase...
i stayed when we should've run.
have i lost you, my beautiful son?
i may not have the chance to make it right.
i may not have the chance to make it right, but i can watch over you tonight.
i can watch over you tonight.
what is this feeling? my nervous system's reeling.
i cracked some kind of code.
i don't know what hit me, it's like a spider bit me.
maybe i'm more than a zero.
just not your typical hero.
every mutant is just a kid in doubt.
every mutant is just a kid in doubt until their inner super freak comes out.
what if the irony's that the weird in me just might be my superpower?
the weird in me just might be my superpower.
i kinda feel like i can fly right now.
i bet you'll never guess who is coming to the rescue.
i'm gonna smash like the incredible hulk, with a little more wit & a little less bulk.
because my wiring's a bit askew, no one sees things quite the way i do.
no one sees things quite the way i do.
maybe i'm not just a nervous dweeb.
would a secret identity end up being the best of me?
mom smiles, but doesn't get me.
but maybe i could be a hero here.
maybe i could be a hero here & make it cool to be queer.
maybe i could be a hero here & make it cool to be queer; maybe that's my superpower.
the world will see the way i shine.
that'll be my superpower.
no more monsters (reprise).
finally, we've got some volunteers.
this teenage horror show ends right here.
it's the shining moment of our careers.
now's the moment we risk it all.
i know the high will be worth the fall.
won't be afraid if i'm next to you.
no more monsters to hurt my family.
no more monsters telling me who to be.
no more monsters sucking this town dry.
no more monsters, kiss those wastoids goodbye.
sacrifice all of your earthly desires: fears begone.
come the dawn we will stand in the sun & the war will be won.
when it's all said & done there'll be no more monsters.
we'll fight to the end till there's no more monsters.
the only thing was missing was you.
it was all going to be so perfect.
never invite a vampire into your home, it renders you powerless.
we didn't invite you this time.
don't try anything foolish.
my blood's in your veins.
stop fighting a war you can't win, it's time to give in.
i can raise my kids on my own, asshole.
it's like i'm finally home.
i never thought i'd ever get to feel this way.
there's no going back for me.
i'm where i wanna be & here i'll stay.
time will always bring another war to fight.
time will always bring another moment to choose to step into the light.
if we make it through the night.
if we make it through the night, if we get another day...
there's something to be saved.
may we not forget how close we came to saying goodbye; remember what matters now, if we make it through the night.
if we get a chance to change, if we can forgive ourselves & make up for our mistakes.
i'll do better, my brother, coz forever we're tied.
we'll never be broken, if we make it through the night.
everything i've gotten wrong, i may not ever get right.
everything i've gotten wrong, i may not ever get right, but i will die trying.
i will belong to someone, someone who can take my heart home.
of all the truths i'll build my life upon, i will know the treasure in my hands before it's gone.
if we make it through the night, i will learn to love.
i will learn to love all of the broken & beautiful pieces that we are made of.
when struggle comes our way again, i will not leave your side.
i'll stay by you always for all of my days.
we are cut from the same steel.
we are cut from the same steel; the same frame, the same raw deal.
no matter where you are, i feel you.
when the world's pushing you around, it gets hard to stand your ground.
i won't let you down, my brother.
no one can tear us apart.
the same blood— that brave blood, it runs through our hearts.
side by side, we are two trees, growing up fast in times like these.
we forget how much we need each other.
what a view, looking up to you.
i couldn't see that you were hurt too.
tell me what to do to make it right.
i'll never let you go if we make it through the night.
i don't want to lose you.
nothing is thicker than blood.
all we have is each other.
brother, you run through my heart.
