The 9th Life of Louis Drax Page #8
Nine years. Nine is my lucky number.
This is my ninth life,
and my ninth life is my best one.
It's not easy being a disturbed child
or accident-prone.
Mom and Dad hating each other sucked,
and school sucked,
and being called, Whacko Boy, sucked.
Being in a coma doesn't suck, though.
You don't have to worry
that Mom is fragile,
and I don't have to miss my dad
more than the whole universe
because he's always going to be here
if I need to talk to him.
You don't have to stay.
You can wake up and live if you want to.
Do you want to?
I don't know.
It depends how curious you are
about what comes next.
Think about the world, Louis.
Think about all of its magic,
all the possibility.
But what's the point
of going back if you're not there?
I'm always with you.
Always.
Right here.
Right here.
Even if you can't
see me or hold my hand...
you can always talk to me.
I love you, kiddo.
All right.
I don't want you to go.
I'm sorry, kiddo.
I love you so much.
I love you more than the whole house.
I love you more than the whole house,
more than the whole street,
more than all the fish in the sea.
Everything will be okay, young sir.
I promise.
You're the strongest man in the world.
I was hiding underneath the sea
Oh, I was looking out for me
To be a better man
Oh, 'cause the music
was so much louder then
To be a better man
To be a better man
Oh 'cause the music was so much louder
So much louder
So much louder
Was just me
The fish and the sea
Was just me
The fish and the sea
Was just me
The fish and the sea
'Cause I was born a noise machine
Wait I still, I was born again
'Cause I was so happy then under
Under the sea
Under the sea
I was so much happier then
Under the sea
Under the sea
