Brian Yorkey and Tom Kitt
The Moment Explodes
[Beth:]
The engine stops
The plane drops
The moment explodes

A sudden rush
A brute hush
And the moment explodes

[Beth & Architect:]
The moment explodes

[Beth:]
Into thoughts of all the things I've left undone
And flashes from a life I've just begun

[Beth & Architect:]
Every friend I ever knew, or thought I did
The love that I could give, the love I hid

[Architect:]
Every stupid, life-before-your-eyes cliche
Could I please go out some less expected way?

[Beth:]
But none alive or dying crack those codes
When the moment explodes
The staircase dips
The foot trips
The moment explodes

[Passenger:]
The dark road curves
The car swerves
And the moment explodes

[All Passengers:]
And the moment explodes

[Another Passenger:]
And it reaches to the future and the past
To every moment ever, first to last

[Flight Attendant:]
And every life I reached, but could not touch

[Flight Attendant & Third Passenger:]
And everyone I loved, or loved too much

[All Passengers:]
And every chance I took, or did not make
Connections that I made, or did not make
But I’ll never take those turns to other roads
[Beth:]
Once the moment

[Beth, Flight Attendant & Architect:]
When the moment

[Beth, Flight Attendant, Architect & All Passengers:]
When the moment

[Passenger:]
The engine stops
The plane drops
The moment explodes
