"Hey! What do you mean you're done here? I mean, you can't quit." She couldn't. Could she?
"Us working together sounded good, but plans change, and people change. The club talent show is a big deal to Sharpay, and evidently for your future. So it's cool, just make it happen, wear your new Italian shoes..." She trailed off, averting her eyes.
"Hey! I'm still me!" Right?
"Blowing off your friends? Missing dates? If that's you it's good to know." She recoiled from his touch and turned to leave, but he stopped her.
"No no no no no. I was only doing that because I'm working on the scholarship thing, you know that." It was just the scholarship. It was all about the scholarship. Everything was about the scholarship. About the future.
"But if along the way, you act like someone you're not, pretty soon that's who you become." She was becoming exasperated. Where was the Troy she fell in love with?
"I meant what I said. About movies and summer and just being together." He was desperate now.
"I'm sure you did." Her voice was filled with disappointment. "At the time. But I also meant what I said. I want to remember this summer. But not like this, Troy."
I gotta say what's on my mind
Us working together sounded good, but. . .
Something about us
doesn't seem right
these days
Blowing off your friends? Missing dates? If that's you it's good to know. . .
life keeps getting in the way
Promise is a pretty big word, Troy. . .
Whenever we try, somehow the plan
is always rearranged
plans change. . . and people change
It's so hard to say
. . . I'm done here. . .
But I've gotta do what's best for me
You'll be okay
I've got to move on and be who I am
. . . and being – anyone I want to be. . .
I just don't belong here
I want them out! . . .
I hope you understand
You can't quit. . .
We might find our place
in this world someday
It's where we belong. . .
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way
Don't wanna leave it all behind
. . . like kindergarten. . .
But I get my hopes up
and I watch them fall every time
Two minutes is late, but an hour? That's approaching a felony. . .
Another color turns to grey
I just got the date mixed up, that's all. . .
and it's just too hard to watch it all
slowly fade away
It just doesn't seem like new stuff. It seems like a new Troy. . .
I'm leaving today
What do you mean, you're done here? . . .
'cause I've gotta do what's best for me
you'll be okay
I've got to move on and be who I am
What's the prize? Troy?
I just don't belong here
The club talent show is a big deal to Sharpay. . .
I hope you understand
I can't do this, Troy...
We might find our place
in this world someday
I got hung up at the gym...
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way
What about us?
What about everything we've been through?
Like the first time we sang together, remember? . . .
What about trust?
Promise is a really big word, Troy...
You know I never wanted to hurt you
I'm working on the scholarship thing, you know that. . .
And what about me?
You're very good at a game that I don't want to play...
What am I supposed to do?
I show up to work, same as you...
I gotta leave but
I'll miss you
So I've got to move on and be who I am
I never thought about singing, . . . 'til you. . .
Why do you have to go?
Then they don't know enough about you, Troy. . .
I just don't belong here
I hope you understand
Giving the way you've been interfering with Troy's future...
I'll try to understand
. . . as long as we're together, it's cool right? . . .
We might find our place
in this world someday
and I'm definitely teaching you a twisted flip on the skateboard...
but at least for now
I want you to stay
I wanna go my own way
I've got to move on and be who I am
You have to go through all that just to get either one? . . .
What about us?
Here's my promise. . .
I just don't belong here
I hope you understand
You're messing with my friends, my summer, and that's not okay with me. . .
Try to understand
I'm still me! . . .
We might find our place in this
world someday
I'm not interested in what you think you're doing for Troy. . .
but at least for now
I gotta go my own way
he looked down to find a silver "T" in his hand
I gotta go my own way
He looked once more at his escaping love
I gotta go my own way...
I don't even know who I am anymore...
