Original Broadway Cast of The Lightning Thief Musical
Try (Bonus Track)
[PERCY]
Two thousand four hundred forty-eight miles
LA never looked so far away

[ANNABETH]
Two thousand four hundred forty-eight trials
Who knows how many dangers stand in our way?

[PERCY AND ANNABETH]
I already know it
I’ll probably blow it
But I’m going there anyway

[PERCY]
I may fail you
I may fail you
I may fail
But it doesn’t mean that I won’t try

[PERCY AND ANNABETH]
I may fail you
I may fail you
I may fail
But it doesn’t mean that I won’t try
I’ll try
[GROVER]
Two thousand four hundred forty-eight reasons
I have to come along
Wash my hands of past mistakes

[ANNABETH]
Prove to the gods that I belong

[GROVER]
He must be protected

[ANNABETH]
I won’t be rejected

[ALL]
I’ll probably get the whole thing wrong
I may fail you
I may fail you
I may fail
But it doesn’t mean that I won’t try
I may fail you
If I fail to
Fight ‘til we’re all in the clear look my fear in the eye
The weight of the world’s on my shoulders
Like Atlas is crushing me down
We’re not brave, we’re not strong, we’re not soldiers
My heart’s just a drum, and damn does it pound
[ANNABETH]
I’m not leaving your side ‘til we find what matters

[GROVER]
I’m not leaving your side ‘til we’re back home

[PERCY]
I’m not leaving your side ‘til you’re remembered

[ALL]
No matter how far we have to go

[ANNABETH]
I’m not leaving your side ‘til we find what matters

[PERCY]
I’m not leaving your side

[GROVER]
I’m not leaving your side ‘til we’re back home

[ANNABETH]
I’m not leaving your side

[PERCY]
I’m not leaving your side ‘til you’re remembered
[GROVER]
I’m not leaving your side

[PERCY AND ANNABETH]
I’m not leaving your side

[ALL]
No!
I can’t fail you
I won’t fail to
Fight ‘til we’re all in the clear look my fear in the eye
I’ll try

[PERCY]
Two thousand

[ANNABETH]
Four hundred

[GROVER]
Forty-eight miles

[ALL]
LA doesn’t seem so far away
