Love me, take me

Anywhere at all

My body's yours

And no one's

I'm just a doll

Now the best

Has surely passed

My soul is yours

At last

My hell of blues

When Mom and

Elisa used to fight,

the rest of us would sneak over

to the cemetery

to talk to our dad

and look at the stars.

It made us feel connected

to each other.

You have guests downstairs.

I know.

They'll hate me anyway.

We just decided to wait up here.

I know it sucks.

One day, we're all gonna be

down here somewhere.

I don't know.

I don't know

if we're ever really gonna die.

Well, I've never had much luck

with it.

What happened to you, Max?

I don't know.

I couldn't face it.

What?

Well, suddenly, I...

I saw myself

the way the world sees me.

You know? I'm just a...

I'm a crazy, wild loser.

And I...

I don't have anything.

I don't think that's true.

How...?

How did you know?

What?

How did you know...

that he hurt me?

Who hurt you?

You know.

I don't know.

Yeah, you do. I know you do.

I don't know

what you're talking about.

Did he hurt you?

I'm so scared.

Don't be scared.

Oh, it's fine.

Let me just get it.

I have to follow the sign.

It's fine, trust me.

No.

Look, the sign doesn't mean

anything.

It's irrelevant, okay?

He doesn't wanna do it.

Okay, fine. If you just

back up and turn around,

we'll take the other road.

Hi.

Hey.

You're... You're home.

Oh, thank God.

You having a party?

I'm really...

I'm really tired.

How about everyone else?

Yeah.

Elisa, do you want some bourbon?

No.

I would take some.

Max, is it okay for you

to be drinking?

Relax.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Are you even gonna look at me?

I'm looking. I didn't...

I thought you weren't...

It's very, um...

wet.

Yeah.

It is.

Tell me about your music.

I'm pretty famous.

You could Google it.

Uh, I mean...

what about it?

- Mom?

- Hmm.

Who is it?

Have you heard Elisa's music?

I mean, it's interesting.

It's pop, but it's a dark pop.

You know,

like a trance, chill, sort of...

I don't know.

Kind of...

neon, electric,

but sort of, like, depression.

It's fun. It's fun.

What is this place?

I wonder all the time.

What place is this?

It's just too mean.

I can feel it cracking,

a tragedy about to collapse.

I love you.

I know.

It's a mutual kind of feeling.

I don't know.

Mm.

Run away.

Good night, Joanne.

Good night, my friend.

I feel the world

coming full circle,

and I'm afraid.

I don't wanna go.

You say that now,

but if you don't come

with us tomorrow,

you'll wish you had.

Just...

Don't cry.

Let's just be quiet.

I just don't really know

how to explain it.

Can you try?

I don't know.

Please?

I don't know what you want me

to tell you. I don't...

I read your journal, Elisa.

Why?

I didn't know

what was going on with you.

I didn't know...

I didn't understand.

What didn't you understand?

About Frank Harper.

What about him?

I talked to Max

about a year ago,

and he told me what happened

with him.

I didn't know about Max

until today.

It's not that.

Just didn't...

Did he rape you, Elisa?

I...

I guess.

I'm sorry.

Talkin' to myself

And feelin' old

Sometimes I'd like

To quit

Nothin' ever seems

To fit

Hangin' around

Nothin' to do...

Oh, my God. Hello?

Help. Help me, please.

Sh*t.

I feel like

I don't know you anymore.

I feel like...

you know me better

than everyone in this family.

Feelin' like

I don't belong

Walkin' around

Some kind of lonely clown

Rainy days and Mondays

Always get me down

Whatever baggage we're bringing,

let's grab it

and put it out front.

Nice to know

Somebody loves me

Found this for you.

Funny, but it seems

That it's the...

You got something on your face.

Where's Mom?

Okay.

The door.

All right.

You can't open the door.

Is it unlocked?

Yeah, it's unlocked.

It just won't open.

All right.

All right. Help me.

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

Oh, sh*t.

Okay.

Okay.

Oh, my God.

Okay.

Is it bad?

No, it's okay.

It's just a small gash.

Okay.

Okay. I'm just gonna...

You need to just...

No, no, you need

to stay conscious, okay?

Okay.

So just... Just...

Can you tell me your name?

Yeah. Frank Harper.

My name's Frank Harper.

Okay.

Just wait.

I need to go and get help.

- Oh, is that you?

- Yes.

Is help on the way?

Yeah, give me a hand.

I wanna stand.

No, no, no. Stay down.

Okay. Okay, you're right.

What were you doing here?

I don't know.

I got lost. I think I...

Heh.

I think I took a wrong turn.

Do you know the Greens?

No. I mean, I...

I, uh, I think I knew the kids.

Why? I don't know them.

Really,

I don't know them very well.

God, I feel so dizzy.

Wait.

Where are you going?

What are you doing?

What?

Look, look,

I didn't do anything wrong.

What? Where are you going?

What are you doing?

It'll be over soon.

Whatever you think of me,

it's a lie.

Please, don't.

Don't... Don't...

That dress is pretty on you.

What?

Your dress is pretty.

It's not mine.

Well, it looks good on you.

Everything looks good on me.

That's probably

a pretty good place for it.

You don't feel it yet?

Feel what?

This lightness.

You'll feel it soon.

Let's go?

Okay.

Let's go.

Mom.

We are

I've come apart

And you made me

Float like

A pretty box

Of your evil

So tired

So easy I

Bleed out

What the f***

Were you thinking?

We are

Gonna fall if you lead us

Nowhere

No wasted time

I'll be a thorn

In your side

Till you die

I'll be a thorn

In your side

For always

If we sink

We lift our love

I'll be a thorn

In your side

Till you die

I'll be a thorn

In your side

For always

If we sink

We lift our love

We are

Let me stop

For a second

Held heart

Only beats

In the evening

Low tide

Watching for flight

I tell you

To cut it out

If you made me

You know why

The slowest spark

Is a breather

How high

How will you decide

I'll be a thorn

In your side

Till you die

I'll be a thorn

In your side

For always

If we sink

We lift our love

I'll be a thorn

In your side

Till you die

I'll be a thorn

In your side

For always

If we sink

We lift our love

So low

You keep stalling

Can you not see why?

Say, say, say

Love was

Say, say, say

That you see cry

Say, say, say

A simple call

Seems right

And I know why

I'll be a thorn

In your side

Till you die

I'll be a thorn

In your side

For always

If we sink

We lift our love

I'll be a thorn

In your side

Till you die

I'll be a thorn

In your side

For always

If we sink

We lift our love

Say, say, say

Say, say, say
