1 | ->''"In truth, I still can't read this story objectively. Each time I reread it, I start to have light hallucinations. I break into a cold sweat. Each time I approach one of a few specific places in the plot, I start wanting to throw the computer out the window. At other particular points, I start wanting to run away from home to live deep in secrecy in the mountains of India."'' |

24 | \ |
25 | When we're born into this world\ |
26 | We are all loved equally\ |
27 | So why is it as we grow old\ |
28 | We're divided up so heartlessly?\ |
29 | \ |
30 | Can you look into their eyes?\ |
31 | Or can you not bear their gaze?\ |
32 | \ |
33 | And will your love be reprised?\ |
34 | Or ignored for the rest of your days?\ |
35 | \ |
36 | Suffering day after day\ |
37 | For a reward that I may never see\ |

57 | Waiting to tear into you\ |
58 | \ |
59 | Do nothing\ |
60 | Be nothing\ |
61 | Come be a manchild\ |
62 | It's perfect for you\ |
63 | Ababa\ |
64 | Ababa\ |
65 | Soon we'll be running wild\ |
66 | They'll all be manchildren, too\ |
67 | In Russia\ |
68 | And Canada\ |
69 | And India |
