“To the pain” means the first thing you lose will be your feet below the ankles. Then your hands at the wrists, next your nose. The next thing you lose will be your left eye, then your right. Your ears you keep, and I’ll tell you why: so every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, “God, what is that thing” will echo in your perfect ears. That is what “to the pain” means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.

But then I guess we know there’s blame to share.
(oh god, I saw this tonight and it was incredible - it was my first musical / West End show. I can’t believe it took me so long to see this!) (via hollywoodwhispers)
