As a man, casting off worn-out garments taketh new ones,
so the dweller in the body, casting off worn-out bodies,
entereth into ones that are new.

You used to listen to this when you served in the Gulf War.
You and your friend, Michael Coleman.
You blame yourself for his death too.
Why do you feel like its something you could have prevented at all?
I SAW HIM FALL, AND I DIDNT STOP RUNNING FROM THEM.
HE WAS MY FRIEND, AND I LET HIM DIE.
Would he have stopped running for you?
YES
Why do you want to believe he would have?
I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE
Youre idealizing him.
You want to feel guilty.
You find it comforting.
Realistically, you feel he wouldnt.
THATS A LIE
Youre getting nervous.
You know he wouldnt have.
YOU DONT KNOW HIM, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY THAT
I can feel it in your voice.
WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO JUDGE ME?

I DID WHAT WAS RIGHT FOR MY COUNTRY
AND I TRY TO LIVE LIKE AN HONEST MAN
AND SUPPORT MY WIFE AND JUST MAKE IT THROUGH THE DAY
AND I LOVE MY HOME AND YOU CANT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME
Shut up! Just shut up.
I hate you.
I hate you for thinking life has an end that corresponds
with your aspirations and wishes.
I hate you for thinking youre unique.
I hate you for thinking you understand your purpose in the world.
I hate you for reminding me of what I used to be.
We all died.
We were all sent here.
We all surrendered the dreams we had made in life.
And we all did what was required of us instead.
You will wait here until you no longer remember who you are.
Until you are no longer sane enough to distinguish
the years from seconds and the seconds from eternity.
And then they will remold you.
And then you will be me.
Your job has been decided.
NO PLEASE WAIT PLEASE JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE TO EXPLAIN TO
Goodbye.
