See Me

[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
