Sadie's Last Days on Earth Page #8

and I couldn't hang out

at the mall under

a glass ceiling anymore, and...

I felt like you ditched me.

And now I realize

that I ran away from you.

You know I would never

intentionally hurt you.

- Sade.

I love who you are.

I was never angry that

you became this way.

I was angry that you

didn't let me in.

- I'm sorry.

- We're all afraid.

I'm scared my tits are falling

and you're worried the sky is.

Tomatoes, to-mah-toes.

And I'm over Jack.

I met a new guy.

And I already kissed him.

I think you know him?

- Who?!

- Teddy!

- No way!

That's amazing!

And weird.

- I know.

Did you know

he's not actually British?

He's so culturally fluid.

I was hoping you'd come tonight.

I really wanted

to tell my best friend.

- So, do you wanna sleep

over at my place tonight?

I got a cot with

your name on it.

- Then I'm in, cap'n.

We'll brave a new world

together.

But seriously, Jack.

Go get him.

- You don't think

I blew it already?

- I think he'd wait outside

your house in an earthquake.

Go!

11:
54.

- Wotcher, Sadie!

- Hey.

Have you guys seen Jack Diaz?

- No, but you wanna try

the beer-cano?

- Not really.

Jack Diaz, you seen him?

- Uh, I think he's

in the sun room.

- Thanks.

Oh, god.

11:
55.

You're not Jack. Oh!

- Check the pool!

- Thank you, thank you,

thank you!

And come together again

a lover's bane

forever will remain,

and I remember when

a-hoo, stars are falling...

Jack!

A-hoo, dawn is coming,

what's this coming to

on a night like this

- hey.

- I was looking for you.

I was upstairs

and I stupidly thought

you were with someone else,

but of course you're not.

I wanna survive with you, Jack.

- What time is it?

What is it?

- I can't look.

- Why?

- Because then the clock

will strike 12

and the world would turn

into a smashed-up pumpkin.

And there might not be anyone

to bring me my glass slipper.

- Are you comparing me

to prince charming?

- Oh my god, did I just

compare myself to Cinderella?

- Wow, I, she is the fairest

of them all.

- That's snow white.

- Just go with it.

On a night like this

on a night like this

a-hoo, stars are falling,

are we falling too

I might have snuck a peek

at your list.

- Yay!

You guys and us guys!

- Blimey, this is personal

and share-y.

- You know,

I say we all go swimming.

- I don't go in pools.

- Sadie, what's left

on your list?

- Well, I guess the apocalypse

won't start before 12.

Love.

That was what she had

that it did not have.

- One.

Everything in high school

is the end of the world.

- Two.

And I know I'm ready for it.

- Three!

I felt nothing

as it drained away

later I felt absence

I felt the empty space

self deception, such a

dangerous weapon for me

it's not pretty

a damsel in distress

don't let me

romanticize the mess

pity's not a party

pity's no place

to place your bets

I finally found a way

to give my doubt away

I finally found a way

now nothing's in the way

now I don't feel the weight

I finally found a way

I finally found a way

I felt nothing

as it drained away

later I felt absence

I felt the empty space

self perfection, such a

dangerous obsession for me

it's not pretty

so many things repressed

don't let these thoughts

die in your chest

silence isn't sacred

silent's no place

to place your bets

it's not pretty

a damsel in distress

don't let me

romanticize the mess

pity's not a party

pity's no place, to place,

to place your bets
