Rent Original Television Cast of Rent Live (Ft. Brandon Victor Dixon, Brennin Hunt, Jordan Fisher, Kiersey Clemons & Mario)

[MARK]
How do you document real life
When real life's getting more like fiction each day?
Headlines, bread-lines, Blow my mind
And now this deadline, "Eviction or pay"
Rent

[ROGER]
How do you write a song
When the chords sound wrong
Though they once sounded right and rare
When the notes are sour
Where is the power You once had to ignite the air

[MARK]
We're hungry and frozen

[ROGER]
Some life that we've chosen

[MARK & ROGER]
How we gonna pay?
How we gonna pay?
How we gonna pay last year's rent?

[ROGER]
How do you start a fire
When there's nothing to burn
And it feels like something's stuck in your flue
