Good night.

JESS'S VOICE:
Just let it go, okay?

Reliving it, wondering if

you could've stopped it...

(crying)

That's where I've been the last 13 years.

JESS:
That's no way to live.

(car door opens)

(horse whinnies)

(door closes)

Don't you ever, ever say her name again!

JESS:
It's quiet out

there. I like the quiet.

Carolyn is...

was the thing

that made me me.

What would a few bullets get me?

Maybe we could go about this

a little less officially.

I owed my daughter that.

I don't think I have the stomach

to watch him walk away again.

That sound like justice to you?

(motor whirring)

I hate the death penalty.

Let him rot in jail,

live a life full of nothing.

(groaning)

(loud clattering)

(coughing)

Please.

Can... Can you ask her to talk to me?

Life sentence, right?

For you too.

Ray?

Ray?

(gunshot)

(screeching)

(grunts)

(grunts)

(shovel digging)

(woman vocalizing)

Love, you left me haunted

Love, I'm just a shadow now

(vocalizing)

Dark in the night

Dark in the day

The messages won't go away

Love, you left me madness

Turn me to a monster now

(vocalizing)

Love, I think I'm dying

Love, the monster's

got me now

Love, I think I'm dying

Love, the shadow's

all around

Lost in the years

Lost in the days

Lost, and it just

won't go away

Let the light in

(vocalizing)

- Let the light in

- Love, I feel you near me

Love is no more shadow now

Love, I feel you near me

Love is no more shadow now

Love, I feel you near me

- Love is no more shadow now

- Let the light in

Love, I feel you near me

Love is no more

monster now
