Dust And Ashes Karaoke Instrumental (Higher / Female) - The Great Comet

LYRICS
PIERRE
Is this how I die?
Ridiculed and laughed at
Wearing clown shoes
Is this how I die?
Furious and reckless
Sick with booze
How did I live?
I taste every wasted minute
Every time I turned away
From the things that might have healed me
How long have I been sleeping?
Is this how I die?
Frightened like a child
Lazy and numb
Is this how I die?
Pretending and preposterous
And dumb
How did I live?
Was I kind enough and good enough?
Did I love enough?
Did I ever look up
And see the moon
And the stars
And the sky?
Oh why have I been sleeping?
They say we are asleep
Until we fall in love
We are children of dust and ashes
But when we fall in love we wake up
And we are a God
And angels weep
But if I die here tonight
I die in my sleep
All of my life I spent searching the words
Of poets and saints and prophets and kings
And now at the end all I know that I’ve learned
Is that all that I know is I don’t know a thing
So easy to close off
Place the blame outside
Hiding in my room at night
So terrified
All the things I could have been
But I never had the nerve
Life and love
I don’t deserve
So all right, all right
I’ve had my time
Close my eyes
Let the death bells chime
Bury me in burgundy
I just don’t care
Nothing’s left
I looked everywhere
Is this how I die?
Was there ever any other way my life could be?
Is this how I die?
Such a storm of feelings inside of me?
But then why am I screaming?
Why am I shaking?
Oh God, was there something that I missed?
Did I squander my divinity?
Was happiness within me the whole time?
They say we are asleep
Until we fall in love
We are children of dust and ashes
But when we fall in love we wake up
And we are a God
And angels weep
But if I die here tonight
I die in my sleep
They say we are asleep
Until we fall in love
And I’m so ready
To wake up now
I want to wake up
Don’t let me die while I’m like this
I want to wake up
God don’t let me die while I’m like this
Please let me wake up now
God don’t let me die while I’m like this
I’m ready
I’m ready
To wake up

[@dianarendon3285]

I LITERALLY GASPED WHEN I SAW THIS IN MY SUGGESTED THANK YOU!

[@croutonwu]

I am saying thank you on behalf of all the basses who can't hit the original notes but still wants to sing this song

[@Bowling_Dude]

sooooooooo, tenors

[@silentcloud.]

No, basses who can't hit the high notes. Basses who use this track and sing an octave lower than a girl would sing on this track

[@rosewilting]

YOU ARE A SAINT

[@zackabdulbaki879]

omg this is great, could you do the same for the last song in the show ?

[@oliviaruprecht]

I believe it's in the key of C# minor.

[@mycurlseatbabies]

Might I ask what the starting note for vocals is here? I don't know if I'm quite getting it.

[@agoodwasteoftime]

it starts on an E

[@michelleshelfmusic]

I'm 2 years late, but could I use this as background instrumentals for a cover? I'd give credit.

[@lime_lorelei]

2:45

[@harperkingsland323]

What's the vocal range in this?

[@aimeemolina2994]

Harper Kingsland g3-b4 I think. So for an alto/mezzo

[@melslemonns]

*bad*

[@amanday3103]

Aimee Molina I know this is 2 years too late, but I think it actually goes down to an e3 (on the “es” of “dust and ashes”)

[@em_j_forever]

Anyone know what the key is?

[@oliviamontes8164]

YES THANK YOU

[@r.wittman3895]

Can someone post a cover in this key? And also what key is this and notes and stuff thanks

[@agoodwasteoftime]

the starting note is E
