I've talked to the men of high regard
In rooms ever white and my soul grew dark by their words
Softly sweet as kissing lips
A kaleidoscope of no consolation at all.

Once upon a time the world was simple. There were heroes and there were villains and bad things only happened to bad people. And then Doomsday came. "Luckily", I survived the attack, but by then I'd come to realize— that sometimes the bad can even afflict the good. And that while we may believe in heroes, there really is no such thing. But why couldn't everyone else see that?

I used to have positive opinions about the world, you know, about people. Used to think the best. Now I'm looking over my shoulder. An unquiet mind, that's what the wife calls it. The job has got me staring into the fireplace, drinking. I never wanted to be the type to think big thoughts about the nature of things and...all I wanted was a stack of pancakes and a V-8.

I used to know how to hug
I used to know how to love
It's simple stuff, but now I can't remember
I used to laugh all the time
But now I'm asking why
Why so hard to be a nice guy?

I’m not a fool. Used to be. There was a time where I was warm. Open. Trusting… And that trust cost me everything.

But something about Travis had felt off to him. The Travis he knew would be terrified out of his damned mind.
But Travis looks to be calm; His posture is tall and upright, and his face is stern with an unusual level of intimacy. He doesn't look scared, nor crazed. But rather, he looks calm, and collected.
