Death Note (Musical)

You can tie me up and You can hold me down and You can ask me questions Try to turn me round and Take me to the edge and Push me off a ledge and You can do most anything You want to do to me now You will never change my mind No no no So tie me up a...

[Light] It's gotta be a joke, of course Some fed-up cop who left the force Or some civilian psychopath Whose righteous wrath may be the source (dialogue interlude) But what would happen if it's true? Imagine all that I could do For with such power, I...

[Aizawa] What can I do? What can I say? How can I go when I should stay? I have a family I must face How can I place them in harm's way? [Ukita] I have a family, just like you But also Kira to pursue I can't stop now and walk away I've got to stay an...

Did I hear correctly? Did it really happen? Was it simply done by writing down his name? Killing indirectly Pen and ink and paper Writing is the gun, I only have to aim Could this be the hour Unimagined power Waiting to devour who I say? The hardes...

Any grounds for L's suspicion surely lie with me. I must catch this monster Kira so the world will see my son is exactly who he seems to be: Honor bound and bound by honesty. Accusations, innuendo, theories full of cracks, timelines, and coincidences...

I'll bring the rain I'll bring the wind I am the mighty hurricane The human stains And all their sins Blown away I'll bring the pain So be afraid I will bring the power of the hurricane 

The hardest rains The coldest winds Are waiting for the hurricane The human stains And all their sins Blown away The earth will shake The sky will scream Once they feel the power... 

You wake me You take me Remake me More than anyone I'll show you I know you I owe you More than anyone You rescued me From all my tears I'd gladly give you Half my years I'll pay any price for Finding you And spend what's left Reminding you...

Well, they say I'm too young And they call me a fool Who can't possibly know my own heart So they tell me to wait 'Til I'm finished with school But right now is when love wants to start And the world may be cold And the world may be cruel But this wo...

Where I come from is a world of bone and dust No need to change, or readjust Where the plight of human beings is ignored And all I am, is always bored So from time to time I visit Seeking fun and self defense It's no big deal, really, is it? And of no...

[Rem] What I see in your eyes Is a counterfeit emotion Nearly true pretty lies Promise all you're dreaming of [Misa] (spoken) I need to meet Kira. [Rem] Like a frog in a well Who is sure he's in the ocean You believe in the spell Of this thing tha...

[Rem] Try as I might never will understand it Love is for dreamers and fools [Rem & Ryuk] Never turns out quite the way that you planned it [Ryuk] Love makes you break all the rules [Rem] Love can make you come alive [Ryuk] Or take your life...

[Light] Time to rethink And begin With a brand new game plan Margin for error is slim [L] He’s on the brink He can win I can’t use the same plan Time to start thinking like him [Light] What would I do if I got inside his head? [L] Thought like...

Sleep now, here among your choices Then drift away Hear now how the world rejoices Shades of grey Gone who was right or wrong Who was weak or strong Nothing left to learn Feel every gentle breeze Whisper through the trees As the seasons turn Souls...

[L] All of the data has been analyzed And yet there's something I don't see The Lind L. Tailor murder televised Kira killed a man who he thought was really me What information is eluding me? With just a name, how can he kill? What other data does he ha...

[L] Each time I challenge, he responds He takes the bait as if he's taunting me He waves a hundred magic wands And soon a hundred men just cease to be I haven't figured out just how He doesn't kill them with a knife or gun But if you ask me here and now...

Empty your mind of any theories 'Til all the facts are in Start at the end of all your queries To learn where things begin You analyze by learning backwards Effects reveal their cause For even perfect crimes have perfect flaws The calculus of a soluti...

[Light] I know by now you understand You're but a pawn upon a board I've won the game, but never Gave up half my years Life will continue just the way I've always planned Let cold, hard justice crash the system I've always stayed a step ahead But yo...

[L] I'm sitting down and pouring tea As if I do it every day Go through the motions Like the hands upon a clock Though it feels right, a part of me Knows that it's wrong As if another's will had moved me It's like I'm hitting all my marks As if I'm...

[L] Finally figured a way to prove Kira is your name I win the game Gotta calculate one last trick Get you there by ten The pier, and then Into the warehouse where I'll corner you at last Bring a gun and end it fast There is no escaping The cold,...

[L] Every fact that I thought I knew Is subverting me Deserting me Every truth I was sure was true Is on shaky ground Has come unwound What if the things I see Are not as they appear Are impossible, yet clear How can I deny it? Always only believe...

[Soichiro] There are lines that can't be crossed There are things you shouldn't do For you pay too high a cost And you lose a piece of you You don't justify the means In the service of an end Smashing laws to smithereens 'Til there aren't any Rules l...

[RYUK] (sighs) Look at how they crawl around Upon the ground Like little ants [REM] Yes, but how they fascinate Confusing fate With what is merely chance [RYUK] Isn't it a laugh [REM] Isn't it a shame [RYUK] Thinking there is someone in heave...

[Sayu] When I get afraid And all hope is gone I reach for your hand And I go on 'Cause someone like you Who's scared, but won't run Is standing his ground for everyone Because the best of us Can come from anyplace Helping the rest of us To face wha...

People always talk about it I have always lived without it Never understood its magic spell It can take your breath away or So that's what the poets say Guess they outta know but who can tell Never believed that anything could feel this true Don't see...

[Crowd] Kira is all the justice We will ever need Now it's the criminals Who tremble, beg, and plead No lawyers' tricks Will be of any use to them Kira is the judge and jury Who will punish and condemn Laws are for protecting us At least, they ough...

Kira knows He is our justice Striking blows For all the victims He's our law Kira is justice What good is law that can't Punish those who break it? We deserve some justice Kira is justice Kira is justice 

[Light] Where is the justice When the guilty all go free? Why don’t we lock them up And throw away the key? [Light's Teacher] I see a young man’s anger Burning in your eyes; [Light] What you see is my impatience With your noble compromise; [Light...
