# but it's harder

the longer it's denied. #

# It's a hunger

and l can't fill it. #

# It's a thirst in a dy land,

but my heart is starving #

# for something but l'm stuck

in the sinking sand. #

- Thanks forthe pizza.

-Alright, no problem.

#And l've searched

in evey direction #

# when l knowyou're

calling my name, #

# but l choose

not to listen #

# 'cause l know

l'll have to change. #

# So this empty

still remains. #

(Johnny C)

Are you coming

back home?

Please sweey, l miss you,

and Eliabeth too.

l miss you too.

You knowshe wrote

another song for you.

(Johnny C)

She did?

Yeah.

Oh, babe,

it would be so great

ifyou could just visit

just once, please.

Okay.

# It shom its face

in expectation #

# and again when

achievement's not enough. #

# The more l gain,

the more l see it, #

# but my heart still cries

it's not enough... #

[phone ringing]

Oh, l'm sory, l thought

# But l choose not

# cause l knowl'll have

Hey, Johnny.

Fo-five minutes late,

Johnny.

Man, you guys are

never ready for me.

Ready this time.

[coughing]

What's wrong?

Man, there was a dog barking

Iast night outside

my house and it

just wouldn't stop.

Johnny!

You got anything you

want to talk about?

Hos Tara, Elizabeth?

They're fine.

They're back

at the house right now

and they'rejust

sleeping away like babies.

Sleep, sleep,

beautiful sleep.

lt's so beautiful.

lt's like they have

intestinal worms or something.

lntestinal worms,

you knowthat's a great lyric.

lfyou don't like worms,

howabout seepage?

l've always liked

the word, ''Seepage.''

ln fact seepage

rhymes with sleepage.

[singing]

They, oh,

they've got seepage

in the sleepage.

Whatdo

What's going on

with you?

Man, you don't

even want to know.

What is going on?

You don't want me

to ruin yourworld.

How much oxy

are you taking?

(Johnny C)

It's prescription.

There's no pharmacy label

on this and no doctor.

His name's

not on there.

l never did this.

That's my stuff.

l'm sory, Brian.

(rian)

It's okay,

but listen, Johnny.

The label is

voicing concern.

lf this gets out,

the Christian market

will turn

on the whole band.

lt's not gonna

happen this time.

You knowwhat?

Can you just go get a drink

ofwater or something?

(Johnny C)

Man, you know

the money, the fame...

...to make a difference,
