Spring Awakening Lyrics
Spring Awakening Cast - Mamma Who Bore Me Lyrics
[WENDLA]

Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so sad

Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven, or Bethlehem

Some pray that one day
Christ will come a'-callin'
They light a candle
And hope that it glows
And some just lie there
Crying for him to come and find them
But when he comes they don't know how to go

Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so bad

Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven, or Bethlehem

Lea Michele & Girls - Mamma Who Bore Me (Reprise) Lyrics
MAMA WHO BORE ME (REPRISE)
(WENDLA & GIRLS)

Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
Mama the angels
Who made me so sad

Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so sad

Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven, or Bethlehem

Some pray that, one day, Christ will come a-callin’
They light a candle, and hope that it glows
And some just lie there, crying for him to come and find them
But when he comes, they don’t know how to go

Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me (Mama the angels, Mama)
No way to handle things
Who made me so sad

Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven, or Bethlehem

Jonathan Groff - All That's Known Lyrics
MELCHIOR
All that’s known
In History, in Science
Overthrown
At school, at home, by blind men

You doubt them,
And soon they bark and hound you
Till everything you say is just another bad about you

All they say
Is Trust in what is written
Wars are made
And somehow that is wisdom

Thought is suspect
And money is their idol
And nothing is okay unless it’s scripted in their Bible

But I know
There’s so much more to find
Just in looking through myself, and not at them

Still, I know
To trust my own true mind
And to say there’s a way through this

On I go
To wonder and to learning
Name the stars and know their dark

    In "Winter Dreams" by F.Scott Fitzgerald, Dexter experiences an internal conflict between dealing with the reality of things, and throwing it all to the wind to follow his "winter dreams". From the time he was young Dexter's life was characterized by his dreaming. Initially Dexter's dreams are concerned with becoming a golf champion and being famous. Dexter had an urge for the best of everything. As Dexter's dreams progress, they expand to include marrying Judy Jones because she represented to him the best in a woman. As it says in the story, "his winter dreams happened to be concerned at first with musings on the rich", "often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it." However, as time went on he saw that, "he was, as he found before the summer ended, one of a varying dozen who circulated around her." This created an internal conflict in him between trying to follow his dreams and trying to be sensible. Dexter became aware that his dreams of Judy Jones might not be realized. Still not able to deal with reality, he would go out to social dances but only to the ones that Judy might show up at. The biggest struggle of all came eighteen months after he first met Judy. Trying to focus on reality, he became engaged to another girl, Irene. She wasn't the "best of everything" like Judy but he knew she would make a good wife. Their wedding date was fast approaching when Judy Jones came back to town. Dexter was forced with the choice of following his dreams or doing what he knew was best. Like the rest of his life, his dreams dictated his actions. Chasing after the dream of Judy, Dexter breaks the engagement with Irene. True to form, Judy leaves Dexter again. He, however, had no regrets for following his dreams even though he only realized them for a short time. In this realization, he still dwelt on the dream of Judy in his heart and thoughts. Ultimately, he realizes that his dream of Judy Jones is gone when his friend reveals to him that she is married…

    Humbert's The Awakening

    • 341 Words

    His tactic is crystal clear: if the child is too scared to be separated from him, she will keep her mouth shut regarding anything that could compromise her (and by extent Humbert). He begins by mentioning that she is an orphan therefore all alone without him which is meant to scare her into not wanting to be abandoned. Moreover, the man is appealing to things that she enjoys like clothes and makeup and threatening to have those things removed from her. He is also implying that there is something wrong with her, something that only he will put up with, and that otherwise, she would be “analyzed” and “institutionalized” by the rest of society. Considering how he has already broken her at this point, she is most likely to believe him when he says…

    William Carlos Williams has a tendency to hyperbolize and glorify objects in order to demonstrate their importance to the functioning of human society. This is done to the effect of creating “unsung heroes” out of everyday objects and encourages the reader to understand the value of little things in all situations. Interestingly, he does all of this without personifying his subjects. In “The Great Figure”, Williams describes a fire truck rushing down an urban street in the rain to put out a fire. In “Red Wheelbarrow”, Williams fondly describes how “so much depends/upon/a red wheel/barrow” (Williams). Since both poems are quite brief, one must not only look at the words being used, but the poetic structure itself to find the meanings both works have in common.…

    Set in 1890’s Germany, Frank Wedekind’s Spring Awakening explores a variety of themes ranging from love and sex, to oppression and death. A pioneering playwright of his time, Wedekind allows contemporary audiences to connect with issues that were controversial then and still very much relevant in modern society. By using such relatable motifs throughout, the play criticises the oppressive culture of nineteenth- century that people can still respond to today. In order to understand why the play continues to appeal to us, it is important to look at key themes such as sexuality, the education system and suicide, which are pertinent in the twenty- first -century.…

    As Whitefield arrived in America, a number of regional revivals were under way. In New Jersey and Pennsylvania William Tennant and his four sons preached the new birth to Presbyterians. Tennant was fed up with the resistance of Yale and Harvard Administrators to the new evangelical fervor, and he founded his own school to train preachers. Derisively his school was called, "log college," but it would lead to the formation of Princeton University. In New Jersey Theodore Frelinghuysen spread revival throughout the Dutch Reformed Church. In Virginian there was the minister and hymn writer Sam Davies. In the backwoods of Pennsylvania, Connecticut and New Jersey, the missionary David Brainerd spread the word to Native Americans on horseback. They all served wonderfully within geographic or denominational boundaries, but it was Whitefield that God would use to tie them all together. When revival in Jonathan Edwards congregation died down he invited George Whitefield to speak, and he himself was moved to tears. Edward's wife Sarah wrote, "It is wonderful to see how he casts a spell over the audience by proclaiming the simplest truths of the Bible..." In Philadelphia William Tennant welcomed him warmly. Whitefield preached from the courthouse steps to streets that were packed with 78,000 people. In Philadelphia Whitefield became friends with a famous agnostic, then turned devout “Deist” (some say Christian), named Benjamin Franklin. Franklin loved to hear him speak, he wrote about him with glowing praise, and became his American publisher. Franklin was amazed at the carrying power of his voice, and calculating how far it traveled, estimated that in an open space, as many as 30,000 people could hear his voice. He was thus convinced of the legendary crowds who had gathered in England could indeed hear him.…

    From what I remember, the world was rainy and dull that morning. Staring at the grey walls of my bedroom I tried, albeit lackadaisically, to clamber out my bed. After several futile “attempts”, I rolled onto my side and buried my head into my pillow like a frightened ostrich sticking its head in sand. Indolently, my fingers grazed my cheek and ran past the dried tear stains from the night before. Slowly, I sat up, shoulders hunched over, clutching my comforter to my chest, and again cried. As the new tears began to run down my face, I wondered, why? Why had this wonderful woman, at thirty-seven years of age, who deserved a full life and everything it had to offer die? Why had this wonderful woman’s three children, all under the age of eleven, lost their mother? Why was this wonderful woman, in whom I could confide, torn away because of that vile cancer? Why did my Aunt Boo Boo die?…
