"In" Lyrics from Carrie the Musical (2012 Off-Broadway Revival)

Stop. Go. Who am I? Move.
Ha! Come on, come in.
(Father, Mother, Preacher, Teacher)
Failure! Am I? Am I? Am I?
No. Am I? Am I stupid? Am I hopeless? Am I?

Violence! Silence!
Broken. Used. Black . Bruised.
What about me? What about me?
I dream! I drown! I wait!

Every day, I just pray.
Every move I make is right.
Where I go, who I know.
Will I be alone on Saturday night?

And I worry,
what if I stand out one bit?
I worry,
what can I possibly do to fit in?
Perfect clothes. Nose.
The perfect skin, face, all ace!

Both my folks, total jokes
All they do is chew my ass!
Blah blah blah blah (continues)
They should just be glad I make it to class.

I don't worry,
if I blow my SATs.
I worry,
what can I possibly do?
To squeeze in, pow!
Why not now?
When will I belong?

Look where I am, damn!
my whole life feels wrong!
What if I do snap?
Holy Crap!
I'd crawl out of my skin
and so will you!
'cuz life just doesn't begin
until you're in!

Don't you all have somewhere to be?

There's somewhere I'd like to be Miss G

What are you Mr Nolan, 12?
Tommy Ross, watch those hands
and definitely no tongue!

Yes ma'am.

Hey you two, get a room.

And you, Chris Hargensen,
lose the gum before class.

Where should I put it Miss Gardner?

Anywhere you like,
just get it out of your mouth.
Carrie White get a move on,
Gym class in two minutes!

Hah. Hah.

God, it's rough. Stayin' tough.
Wonderin' what the world will say.
"Make a plan!"
"Be a man!"
All this frickin' bullshit gets in the way!

I go crazy!
Nobody cares what it does to me.
It's crazy!
I would go out of my mind.
To fit in, shit.
In is it.
What comes close to that?
Until you've been, in,
you aint where it's at

'Cuz when you're out,
well, life is hell.
You can never win.
There's no doubt that
life just doesn't begin
until you're... aww!

Way to go Carrie!

Yeah, way to blow it!

Loser!

Hit the showers girls,
go change up!

Our father who art in heaven
hallowed be thy name
thy kingdom come
thy will be done
on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Amen.

And some day
if I don't stand out one bit
oh some day
I may be normal enough
to fit in

Geez! Shoot me please!
Put me out of my pain!
Am I a mess? Yes!
Totally insane!

If I am not missed,
I don't exist,
that's the greatest sin!

I'd rather be shot!
'Cuz, life just doesn't begin...
Doesn't begin... Doesn't begin...
Doesn't begin... Doesn't begin...
Until you're in!
