AMANDA:
I'm scared.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

("SYMPHONY NO. 2, MOV. 3"

BY GUSTAV MAHLER PLAYING)

ZOEY:
They play with sex.

They make it cheap,.

(WHISPERING) Maybe you need this world.

The falsehood, the show.

()

Maybe what stirs your blood

is having wild people around you.

(MUSIC FADES)

You might have to be a sinner.

Started crashing his head

against the locker

Started laughing hysterically

When suddenly

Johnny gets the feeling

He's being surrounded by

Horses, horses, horses, horses...

(LOUD, UP-TEMPO ROCK MUSIC STARTS PLAYING)

Can I take you down?

Come on outwith me...

(MUSIC ENDS)

FAYE:
What if I don't become an artist?

Don't have one life,.

Don't have the other.

Running around, trying to be somebody.

Snatching at life.

I got some uranium!

I bought it off my mom.

(DISTORTED ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

MAN:
The music's all about feeling free.

So you don't have

to do nothing to be free.

Why ain't I free'? Answer me that.

Baby, baby

We just went out to have some fun

Baby, baby

We can't go back 'cause now it's done

Baby, baby

Now I'm the one who has to pay

Baby, baby

Since the night they took you away

You pushed this guy

And he pushed you back

You knocked him

into the amplifier stack

The bouncers came

And dragged you both...

ZOEY:
I feel like we are so...

connected.

And it's. ..

I can't really understand, it's like...

(WATER BURBLING)

(MUFFLED, BIRDS CHIRPING)

(MELODIC WHISTLING ECHOES)

FAYE:
I forget everything,

but seeing you again...

("Rollin' and Tumblin'"

by Elmore James playing)

I rolled and I tumbled

I cried the whole night long...

FAYE:
I never knew I had a soul.

I cried the whole night long

The word embarrassed me.

I got up this morning

Feeling that something going on wrong

I've always been afraid to be myself.

Please let me be

Yes, love me...

I thought there was no one there.

Please let me be

if you don't like my peaches

Please don't shake my tree

(MUSIC ENDS)

( HELICOPTER WHIRS IN DISTANCE)

I don't believe anything

that you're saying.

Yes, you do.

You know, but even the...

the sound of your voice and...

that upsets me.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

FAYE:
I forget what I am.

Whose I am.

You're so far off.

I'll die if you don't come soon.

I don't like to see the birds in the sky,

because I miss you.

Because you saw them with me.

(LAWNMOWER IN DISTANCE)

Come.

Save me from my bad heart.

(BIRDS CAWING AND CHIRPING)

It won't let up

And I see them coming in,

Oh, I hear them coming in

I couldn't hear them before,

But I hear them now

It's a radar scope

It's all silver

And all platinum lights

Moving in like black ships

They were moving in, streams of them

And he put up his hands and he said

It's me, it's me

HI give you my eyes

Oh, take me up, oh, please, take me up

I am helium raven waiting for you

Please take me up, don't leave me here

The son, the sign, the sign

The true prophet, the true prophet

A tortured woman, the true sign

The cross is just the true sign

Of a tortured woman

Standing there in the doorway

Dreaming of, dreaming of the prophet

They don't want their presidents

They don't want

Their children to be presidents

But prophets, prophets

They're dreaming of their children

As prophets

They're gonna come in,

Run through the fields

Dreaming of animation

She said, oh, please, please, please

I'm gonna shoot 'em up like light

Like Mohammad Boxer

Oh, please take me up

Up, up, up...

Ahh

Ahh

To the belly of a ship

Let the ship slide open

And I'M go inside of it

Where we are not

Human

(FAYE WHISPERING) Touch me.

We are not human...

(SITS ON PIANO KEYS)

FAYE:
Fallen so low.

I had to find my way out...

of you.

Where there was a desert

FAYE:
To life.

The sun shone down...

(SLOW, PULSING BEAT)

(BIRD CHIRPING)

WOMAN:
All right, our second course

will be our salad course,

which will consist of a salad...

(VOICE FADES)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER OF CHILDREN)

(ACOUSTIC GUITAR PLAYING FAINTLY)

(DOG BARKS IN DISTANCE)

FAYE:
I revolted against goodness.

Thought it had deceived me.

WOMAN:
Careful, Matthew.

FAYE:
Thought!

Could do better than others.

Didn't need what made life sweet for them.

(ACOUSTIC GUITAR PLAYING FAINTLY)

Look at me.

(FAYE BREATHING HEAVILY)

I'm sor...

I'm sorry that you're not

as proud of me...

as you are...

with my sisters.

FAYE:
I'm not who I thought I was.

Am I a good person?

You made so many...

so many sacrifices for me.

So that I could have a chance

to do the things that you couldn't do...

FAYE:
Even want to be?

And I failed you.

FAYE:
Or just seem like one

so people will like me.

Ow! '

Ah!

Ow! '

Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ahh!

Ah

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'm inside your DNA

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'm inside your DNA

You can't make me go away

I'm inside your DNA

You can't make me go away

I'm inside your DNA

You can't make me go away

AH you do is f*** and eat,

That's what we do too

Tough for you 'cause you're our meat

But we don't make the rules

Not only will we drink your blood

We're gonna suck your head

There isn't much to think about

'Cause soon you will be dead

my family.

Is now the time to tell you that?

(SIGHS)

(LAUGHTER)

I guess not.

- Is this a joke?

- She's kidding, ma.

- Oh.

- Oh, it was a joke.

Not very funny.

Cheers.

Excuse me for a second.

(CARS DRIVING BY)

You're unhappy-

I can see it.

Sorry about that.

What'd you do?

She's the wrong person for you.

I'm sorry?

It's wrong.

JUDY:
Come on, honey. It's okay.

I don't understand it, but...

(LOUD, INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- Can I walk with you?

- No.

BV:
I don't know how to change.

I want to,.

How do you?

Will you take me somewhere?

BV:
How do you get better?

("NOCTURNES:
NUAGES" BY

BRT PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA PLAYING)

WOMAN:
Gotta sacrifice something.

BV:
How do you know

when you're lying to yourself?

()

BV:
When you give somebody your word...

does it mean anything?

You can just take it back,.

()

I told her that Fm gonna do my best.

Do my best not to say things I don't mean.

(MUSIC FADES)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(BEADS RATTLING AND DROPPING ON FLOOR)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER NEARBY)

FAYE:
The world built

a fence around you.

(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

How do you get through?

(CHOIR SINGING WITH STRING ACCOMPANIMENT)

There's something else.

Something that wants us to find it,.

COOK:
You're the part

that I don't know...

that you don't know yourself.

(SIGHING) I swear.

RHONDA:
How long have

you been doing this?

(SIGHING) My dream was to be a teacher,

but this is kind of something I just...

I fell into after my fianc passed.

In memory for him, but...

like, this is not something

that people just choose to do,

so I'm trying... this is just

a means to an end for me.

(voice cracking) It was

so much better when he was around.

But, you know... (SNIFFLES)

God has a plan, and...

and I guess this is part of his plan.

You know, Shawn being gone

and me being in this situation

where I have no choice
