Lyrics of ' See Me ' by Bare: A Pop Opera

[Claire]
Hello?

[Peter]
Mother I need to talk to you

[Claire]
Peter! Honey, I was just gonna call you

[Peter]
There's something that you need to know

[Claire]
Gone a week, I miss you already

[Peter]
I'm just gonna spit it out

[Claire]
How are rehearsals going?

[Peter]
You probably guessed it years ago
Still it's kinda hard to say

[Claire]
Peter we're so excited about the play

[Peter]
It's something that I've spent so long not saying

[Claire]
I called your father, he swore he'd be there

[Peter]
Sometimes it's on the tip on my tongue
But only spoken aloud, alone while I'm praying

[Claire]
I'd like to tape it but honestly Peter, I'm not gonna be one of those parents

[Peter]
All I ask is an open-mind

[Claire]
Peter, perhaps now isn't the best time

[Peter]
It's such a lonely bridge to cross

[Claire]
I'm taking Nanna to lunch

[Peter]
I search for answers on my own

[Claire]
She's so proud of you, Peter

[Peter]
And find that I'm completely lost
Mom, please don't say anything else
Just listen
I don't know where to start
God, I can't get the words out
It's like they're all jumbled together
Mom, I love you and

[Claire]
Berkley took their wait list
When they called I almost died
Would you really go to Berkley?
I didn't know that you'd applied

[Peter]
Mom, please listen to me

[Claire]
Where did Notre Dame go?
I didn't know that you withdrew
People will be disappointed
Have you really thought this through?

[Peter]
Mom this is important
Mom you need to listen
Please don't shut me out here
Mom you need to see me

[Claire]
Peter, please I'm so busy here
Let me call you later dear

[Peter]
God this is so hard to say
I'm so afraid you'll turn away, Mom, I'm

[Claire]
Peter, please, I need a break
Whatever it is we'll have to wait
I'm going to hang up now
I really need to hang up now

[Peter]
Don't hang up this took such courage
I'm dying here, I'm all alone
I know you know you know what I'm saying
Just let me tell you
Mom, I'm

[Claire]
Peter, please, I can't solve all your problems

[Peter]
Mother you know nothing of them
And I'm not expecting you to find solutions
Just be my Mom and my friend
See me

[Claire]
I assure you I'm in no state of mind to discuss anything right now

[Peter]
I've been waiting to tell you this since I was twelve

[Claire]
Peter, I'm going to go now

[Peter]
You don't want to hear it
You don't want to see me
Can't bare to see me

[Claire]
Peter you tend to dramatize

[Peter]
There's a reason for that mother
Open your eyes

[Claire]
Peter, please, I have to go now
I really need to go right now
I'll call you

[Peter]
When mom, when are you going to call?

[Claire]
Soon, Peter, this week, this weekend

[Peter]
We can work this out together

[Claire]
Maybe before then you'll work whatever this is out

[Peter]
This is always on my mind

[Claire]
I have so much on my mind

[Peter]
Please don't hang up

[Claire]
I have to go

[Peter]
Please see me
