Everything Is Fine Page #4

Next, he discovers that three more friends also killed themselves, leaving him out of their pact. As the sole survivor, Josh becomes more and more detached from the world around him.

Yeah, right.

They never spoke to you about...

their plan?

Pff... I don't remember.

Don't you want to understand?

- No, you want to!

Why don't you get it?

Huh? You want to understand.

- OK, let's say

I want to understand...

- Then it's your damn problem.

See a psychologist.

Y'know, Josh...

you're not being honest with me.

- No, I'm not honest with you

one bit.

Do you know where

your girlfriend is right now?

Your goddamn clock's wrong.

There.

Dammit!

- I never understood them.

- What?

- Bugs. Why do they trip

on light like that?

Are you stoned?

- No, check it out.

The big one's going crazy.

It's not like it helps them.

They don't budge.

It warms them.

It's warm enough, sh*t.

No, it must be like a big party

for them, man.

Something like that.

A party?

- A huge f***ing rave.

With a light show and everything.

The whole shebang.

- And when the rave's over

and the lights go out?

They f*** their brains out, duh!

A f***ing bug group grope!

Well, it's f***ing beautiful.

- Hi, Mia.

- Hi.

- I like your hair.

- Thanks.

The blonde was temporary.

It comes to $32.31.

Drop by the house for a coffee.

You must be busy with this,

school and all.

If you ever have time.

Sorry.

I may have stuff...

I can give you.

Bye, hon. Take care.

You too.

Genevieve?

You OK?

I don't know why he left you.

You were great together.

He still loved you.

- Maybe.

Some people...

think Sasha talked

the others into it.

No.

Nobody talked anyone into it.

I'm sure of that.

I should've seen something.

I didn't see a thing.

There's a dream that I see

I pray it can be

Look cross the land

shake this land...

- Did I ever tell you

about my dad?

I was 8.

He'd taken me bicycling

for the day.

He took me in his arms

and kissed me

and gave me five bucks.

He said to go buy candy

at the store.

When I came back...

he wasn't there.

My mom was standing outside,

bawling her eyes out.

She said not to go upstairs.

I understood.

So I went upstairs

and saw my father.

He'd hung himself in the closet.

He was already blue.

And me...

I've seen his face every day

since I was 8.

I can't hack it.

I can't hack it, man.

So we've got nothing to lose

We can all be free

Maybe not with words

Maybe not with a look

But with your mind

You've got to choose

a wish or command

At the turn of the tide

is withering thee...

Beats Kibble, huh?

Remember one thing

the dream you can see

Pray it to be

shake this land

We all do what we can

So we can do

Just one more thing

We can all be free

Maybe not with words

Maybe not

With a look

But with your mind

But with your mind

Ah!

Hey.

Not in school?

- No, it's a ped day.
