Finale Lyrics

The introduction of the lyrics in the phrase “Now it’s your turn to dream up the universe” marks a transition in the song’s narrative. Calypso, as the speaker, is addressing someone, likely Simon, and encouraging them to take their creative initiative. The phrase suggests that after overcoming challenges and celebrating their accomplishments, it’s time for the next person to step forward and contribute to the creation of something new and exciting, symbolizing the continuous cycle of creativity and progress.

[AZATHOTH, spoken]
I think you guys are going to need, uh, oh, what’s that human concept called? I technically created it. Uh, ah, therapy!

Azathoth, a cosmic entity in Lovecraftian lore, humorously suggests the need for therapy, a human concept that he claims to have indirectly influenced. Therapy is a process in which individuals seek professional guidance to address mental and emotional issues. It involves talking to a trained therapist who helps clients explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, aiming to improve their overall well-being. Azathoth’s reference to therapy in this context adds a whimsical twist to the idea that even cosmic beings might benefit from introspection and psychological support, highlighting the universality of the concept.

[CALYPSO, spoken]
Yes, please. We all went a little crazy up there.​

Calypso’s statement reflects the idea that being isolated or confined in a particular environment for an extended period can lead to psychological challenges. In this context, “up there” likely refers to a situation or place where Calypso and others experienced confinement or isolation, possibly in space or another remote location. The phrase “went a little crazy” suggests that the prolonged isolation had adverse effects on their mental well-being, causing them to exhibit unusual or irrational behavior.

[AZATHOTH, spoken]
I think you guys are going to need, uh, oh, what’s that human concept called? I technically created it. Uh, ah, therapy![CALYPSO, spoken]
Yes, please. We all went a little crazy up there.​[AZATHOTH, spoken]
Oh, well, that’s to be expected. Maintaining one’s sanity in this plane is rare!​[CALYPSO]
So, this is it, the big final number
Before you drift off into eternal slumber
I have to say
It’s been quite the journey, my friendsI can’t believe that we pulled this off!
I mean, all odds against us, we prеvailed at the new
What a cliché
That hеre we all stand at the end[MARLY]
Willing to face off with faith we have made it thus far
Fighting the chances is what makes us all who we are
Oh, skidding past the finish line with seconds left to spare
I can feel the currents change ’cause luck be in the air!
And if I die, my story will be told when I am gone
‘Cause you and I have brought about the start of a new dawn

[XANDER, spoken]
Simon, hey. I just wanted to apologize for my ludicrous behavior today.​

[SIMON, spoken]
Nah, I don’t blame you, it’s pretty difficult not to fall in love with me.​

[XANDER, spoken]
Oh, if you say so​.​

[SIMON, spoken]
I was being sarcastic. Don’t tell me you’re actually in love with me?

[XANDER, spoken]
Well I mean, I wouldn’t say necessarily in love.​

[SIMON, spoken]
Oh my god. You have a crush on me! How long ago did that start? This whole time? Oh, buddy.​

[XANDER, spoken]
Shut up, man.​

[SIMON, spoken]
I was just teasing you, you should ask me out.​

[XANDER, spoken]
What?

[SIMON, spoken]
Well I’m definitely not asking you out, that’s beneath me.​

[XANDER, spoken]
And you call me self absorbed.​

[SIMON, spoken]
Just ask me out, Xander!

[XANDER, spoken]
Okay, alright! When we go back to Earth, would you like to come over sometime and watch anime with me?

[SIMON, spoken]
Would it be rude if I said “never” right now?

[XANDER, spoken]
I’d be really mad at you.​

[SIMON, spoken]
Then yes. I’ll watch anime with you, it sounds fun.​

[XANDER, spoken]
Hey, maybe I can cash in on that “free make out session” you mentioned before.​

[SIMON, spoken]
God, you remember that?

[XANDER, spoken]
Hard to forget!

[SIMON]
Willing to face off with faith we have made it thus far
Fighting the chances is what makes us all who we are
Oh, if I can surround myself with people good at heart
Maybe I can learn to trust those people with my art

[XANDER]
Take my hand and I can show you how to be yourself

[ADIL]
And force you into therapy

[SIMON, XANDER, ADIL]
‘Cause god, do we need help!

[CALYPSO, spoken]
That was amazing, Simon! How come you didn’t tell us you were a writer?

[SIMON, spoken]
Oh, I got screwed over by a record label. They laughed about my family and took credit for my work.​

[CALYPSO, spoken]
Oh, I’m so sorry.​ You’re really talented though!

[SIMON, spoken]
So are you!

[CALYPSO, spoken]
Then, we should be co-writers.​

[SIMON, spoken]
Sounds like a great idea.​

[CALYPSO]
Now it’s your turn
To dream up the universe
The past may seem daunting but we’re here to cheer you on!
Maybe next year
We’ll be back to sing you a new song

[CALYPSO, XANDER, ADIL, MARLY, SIMON]
Daring to face off with faith we have made it thus far
(Daring, Far)
Fighting the chances is what makes us all who we are
(Fighting, Are)
Oh, skidding past the finish line with seconds left to spare
(Oh)
I can feel the currents change, ’cause luck be in the air
(Ah)
And if I die, my story will be told when I am gone
(Oh)
‘Cause you and I have brought about the start of a new dawn

New dawn
