Chase The Morning

SHILO...? IS YOUR NAME SHILO?
CAN I TALK TO YOU?
CAN YOU COME DOWN PLEASE...
SO WE CAN SPEAK?
I SAW YOU AT THE SHOW.
I THOUGHT I’D SEEN A GHOST.
YOUR RESEMBLANCE IS STRIKING.
YOU HAVE YOUR MOTHER’S EYES,
HER HAIR.
I WAS TOLD YOU DIED WITH HER.
ALL THESE YEARS HAVE COME AND GONE.
HOW DO I PUT THIS...?
I’M YOUR GODMOM.

STATE YOUR BUSINESS.

BUSINESS?

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I WANT, I WANT TO FINALLY MEET YOU -
SOMETHING REAL TO CLING TO.
LEAVE YOU WITH THE HOPE THAT
YOU WILL GO DO ALL YOU’RE MEANT TO,
ALL I’VE FAILED TO.
IN YOU, IS A WORLD OF PROMISE.
WE HAVE BOTH BEEN KEPT IN BONDAGE,
BUT YOU CAN LEARN FROM ALL MY FAILURES.

I’M NOT SUPPOSED TO TALK TO STRANGERS.

OR LET THEM THROUGH THE GATE?

THAT EITHER. A BIG RISK.

A BIG FENCE.

A MISTAKE.

A NEW FRIEND.

CHASE THE MORNING.
YIELD FOR NOTHING.
CHASE THE MORNING.
YIELD FOR NOTHING.

OH MY GOD, MUM?

HOW’D YOU DO THAT?

DO WHAT?

DO THAT. THAT, THAT EYE THING.

THESE EYES CAN DO MORE THAN SEE.

I KNOW--I MEAN, I’VE SEEN YOU SING.

WHERE?

FROM MY WINDOW.
I CAN SEE THE WORLD FROM THERE.
NAME THE STARS AND CONSTELLATIONS.
COUNT THE CARS AND WATCH THE SEASONS.

I WISH WE COULD’VE WATCHED TOGETHER.

I CAN’T HAVE GUESTS.

NEVER?

EVER. IF DAD FOUND OUT
THAT I’D BEEN LET OUT,
OR YOU’D BEEN LET IN...

I SHOULD GO THEN.
BEFORE I DO, PROMISE ME YOU WON’T--

IT’S BETTER THAT YOU—

DON'T. FORGET ME.

'BEST
IF I RESUME MY LIFE INSIDE
MY BEDROOM.

DON'T FORGET THAT
A SHELTERED ROSE NEEDS A
LITTLE ROOM TO BLOOM
OUTSIDE HER BEDROOM.

CHASE THE MORNING.
YIELD FOR NOTHING.
CHASE THE MORNING.
YIELD FOR NOTHING.

LET YOUR LIFE BE YOUR DREAM.
INTEGRITY. HONESTY.
IT’S TOO LATE FOR ME.
DON’T LOOK BACK ‘TIL YOU’RE FREE TO
CHASE THE MORNING…

YIELD FOR NOTHING.
CHASE THE MORNING.
YIELD FOR NOTHING.
YIELD FOR NOTHING
