Birdy

1:47:04

I can't go out there.

1:47:07

I couldn't make it.

1:47:11

They got the best of us, Birdy.

1:47:15

We're both totally screwed up.

1:47:20

We haven't had anything to do
with making our own lives. Fuck!

1:47:29

I was always so damned sure...

1:47:31

about being myself...

1:47:34

and how nobody was going to
make me do anything I didn't want.

1:47:38

And now, here I am.

1:47:41

They finish you off with a discharge
or put you on a casualty list.

1:47:46

It doesn't matter
how special you are or were.

1:47:50

I feel like one of those dogs
nobody wanted, remember?

1:47:57

You know, when that shell
went off in my face...

1:48:02

l could smell burning flesh.

1:48:05

And it was crazy...

1:48:09

because the smell was so sweet...

1:48:11

so familiar.

1:48:15

Then I realized that it was
my own skin that was frying.

1:48:22

And I couldn't even touch the pain.

1:48:27

I don't even know
what I look like anymore.

1:48:31

I don't know if it's me
under these bandages...

1:48:33

or what some Army meat-cutter
thinks is me.

1:48:37

I don't want a patched-up,
instant-pity excuse for a face.

1:48:44

I just want it to be AI under here.

1:48:47

Not some sewn-together freak mask.

1:48:52

Shit!

1:48:54

What's so great about
their fucking world anyway?

1:48:58

We'll just stay here
and keep the hell out of it.
