It is an early Monday morning[00:00:24]
The sun is becoming bright on the land[00:00:29]
No one is watching as he comes a walking[00:00:36]
Two bulky suitcases hang from his hands[00:00:40]
He heads towards the tower that stands in the campus[00:00:47]
He goes through the door he starts up the stairs[00:00:51]
The sound of his footsteps the sound of his breathing[00:00:58]
The sound of the silence when no one was there[00:01:02]
I didn't really know him[00:01:14]
He was kind of strange[00:01:16]
Always sort of sat there[00:01:19]
He never seemed to change[00:01:21]
He reached the catwalk[00:01:36]
He put done his burden[00:01:37]
The four sided clock began to chime[00:01:39]
Seven AM the day is beginning[00:01:46]
So much to do and so little time[00:01:50]
He looks at the city where no one had known him[00:01:57]
He looks at the sky where no one looks down[00:02:00]
He looks at his life and what it has shown him[00:02:07]
He looks for his shadow it cannot be found[00:02:11]
He was such a moody child very hard to touch[00:02:22]
Even as a baby he never smiled too much[00:02:28]
No no[00:02:33]
No no[00:02:37]
You bug me she said[00:02:43]
Your ugly she said[00:02:45]
Please hug me I said[00:02:48]
But she just sat there[00:02:50]
With the same flat stare[00:02:52]
That she saves for me alone[00:02:55]
When I'm home[00:02:57]
When I'm home[00:03:01]
Take me home[00:03:05]
He laid out the rifles he loaded the shotgun[00:03:09]
He stacked up the cartridges along the wall[00:03:13]
He knew he would need them for his conversation[00:03:19]
If it went as it he planned then he might use them all[00:03:23]
He said listen you people I've got a question[00:03:29]
You won't pay attention but I'll ask anyhow[00:03:33]
I found a way that will get me an answer[00:03:40]
Been waiting to ask you till now[00:03:43]
Right now[00:03:48]
Am I[00:03:52]
I am a lover whose never been kissed[00:03:54]
Am I[00:03:58]
I am a fighter whose not made a fist[00:04:00]
Am I[00:04:03]
If I'm alive then there's so much I've missed[00:04:05]
How do I know I exist[00:04:09]
Are you listening to me[00:04:16]
Are you listening to me[00:04:17]
Am I[00:04:19]
The first words he spoke took the town by surprise[00:04:27]
One got Mrs Gibbons above her right eye[00:04:31]
It blew her through the window wedged her against the door[00:04:37]
Reality poured from her face staining the floor[00:04:41]
He was kind of creepy[00:04:52]
Sort of a dunce[00:04:54]
I met him at the corner bar[00:04:56]
I only dated the poor boy once[00:04:59]
That's all[00:05:01]
Just once that was all[00:05:04]
Bill Whedon was questioned as stepped from his car[00:05:11]
Tom Scott ran across the street but he never got that far[00:05:14]
The police were there in minutes they set up baricades[00:05:18]
He spoke right on over them in a half-mile circle[00:05:21]
In a dumb struck city his pointed questions were sprayed[00:05:24]
He knocked over Danny Tyson as he ran towards the noise[00:05:35]
Just about then the answers started comming sweet sweet joy[00:05:39]
Thudding in the clock face whining off the walls[00:05:44]
Reaching up to where he sat there answering calls[00:05:47]
Thirty-seven people got his message so far[00:05:52]
Yes he was reaching them right were they are[00:05:56]
She said no no[00:06:02]
She said no no[00:06:04]
They set up an assault team they asked for volunteers[00:06:07]
They had to go and get him that much was clear[00:06:11]
And the word spread about him on the radios and TV's[00:06:14]
In appropriately sober tone they asked[00:06:17]
Who can it be[00:06:20]
He was a very dull boy very taciturn[00:06:29]
Not much of a joiner he did not want to learn[00:06:34]
No no[00:06:38]
No no[00:06:43]
They're coming to get me they don't want to let me[00:06:47]
Stay in the bright light too long[00:06:52]
It's getting on noon now it's going to be soon now[00:06:58]
But oh what a wonderful sound[00:07:03]
Mama won't you nurse me[00:07:15]
Rain me down the sweet milk of your kindness[00:07:24]
Mama it's getting worse for me[00:07:33]
Won't you please make me warm and mindless[00:07:41]
Mama yes you have cursed me[00:07:51]
I never will forgive you for your blindness[00:07:59]
I hate you[00:08:07]
The wires are all humming for me[00:08:14]
And I can hear them coming for me[00:08:17]
Soon they'll be here but there's nothing to fear[00:08:21]
Not any more though they've blasted the door[00:08:24]
As the copter dropped the gas he shouted[00:08:37]
Who cares[00:08:40]
They could hear him laughing as they started up the stairs[00:08:41]
As they stormed out on the catwalk blinking at the sun[00:08:46]
With their final fusillade his answer had come[00:08:49]
Am I[00:09:00]
There is no way that you can hide me[00:09:03]
Am I[00:09:07]
Though you have put your fire inside me[00:09:10]
Am I[00:09:13]
You've given me my answer can't you see[00:09:16]
I was[00:09:23]
I am[00:09:27]
And now I will be[00:09:30]
I will be[00:09:36]
