JASON
I know it's late, but I didn't know where else to go
PRIEST
You know you can always come here
Begin
JASON
These are my sins, but where to begin?
I don't know if I have it in me
In me...
PRIEST
Go on...
JASON
Still I recall the peace that would fall
When I believed you could forgive me
I don't know where to start
Yes, I do
It's a start and a finish
God, it's the root of everything
PRIEST
I'm here to listen, here to understand you
Tell me what lies in your heart
And in the telling you'll find the peace you're seeking
You'll know the way once you start
JASON
Well, I've tried to be strong, I've tried to belong
But I don't, or I won't. I can't, I can't
Such a simple, little word - never spoken, always heard
It's not something I can be; it's not ok, not for me
Do you know what I'm...
PRIEST
-Yes
JASON
What do I do?
PRIEST
I know you're frightened, know I understand that
But there's only so much I would say
I can't live for you, but know that God is with you
Through Him, you will find a way
JASON
Can I please see your face?
I'm in such a desperate place
What do I do now?
Tell me, tell me!
PRIEST
Child, if I only could...
JASON
I don't belong. I've always thought this was wrong
If they knew, my parents would die. They would die!
PRIEST
So keep it quiet
I will hold your secret
You know that it's safe to confide
You're just a child, and things can change, I promise
You're young, you have time on your side
Focus on your graduation
JASON
Is it ok...?
PRIEST
-Keep your mind on other matters
JASON
Am I ok? Please, answer me!
PRIEST
-Pray for courage, pray for...
JASON
Why are you dancing?
PRIEST
You know what I'll say
JASON
Why won't you answer?
PRIEST
You know what I'll say
JASON
Why won't you tell me?
God!
PRIEST
No
You know in your heart that the teaching is clear
Faith in the Father has led your soul here
Bear up the cross, let the Church be your spine
Don't question too much...
And you'll get along fine
Whatever you have done
I know God will forgive
Live in His Word; He will always forgive
Go now, in the Spirit
And live...
