{This song is very unique because of the fact that the audience gets to choose- not just the name of the members of the family, but which family member dies of dysentery and ends up singing this song. StarKid has posted each option separately, but this person has mashed them all together, making it so much easier to post the video without having to use my French teacher's "scientific method"...)

FAMILY MEMBER: when the darkness surrounds you, and the light is all but out, there's still a fire deep inside you that will find the nearest route. It starts as a whisper; you feel a rumbling, an itching at your soul. You can't hold it any longer and then you know you gotta go when you gotta go. Close your eyes, give it a shove. Go! You gotta go, it's time to let go of your love. The time we had together is all that I had left. Go, go, go! 'Till you can't go anymore. Wait- I might just make it! I've found my second wind! The pain's not bad, I can take it- I think I can hold it in! Help me to my feet, you will have to carry me. No! Put me down! My limbs are growing weak. Is this the end I see? Oops, I guess there's more. I saw a porcelain door. But there's one last thing to say, so come real close- you gotta go when you gotta go. It's time to get the hell out of here. Go! Get! Get! Get! Go! I don't want a single tear. I'll always be inside you, even when I'm all dried up. Go, go, go! 'Till you can't... anymore.
