XXX-XXX - Alone because... lyrics

Door opens. The Father comes in wearing a white T-shirt with “ROSS CO.'s Wealth Soothe” written on it. The Boy in the pool exhales. Dude 2 leaves. Long silence. The Father and The Boy stare at each other, then The Father looks out the window FATHER: You made some friends Long pause THE BOY: Why now? FATHER: You need me now THE BOY: No FATHER: Then I need you THE BOY: Am I going to jail? FATHER: You want to? THE BOY: That would be normal FATHER: You're my son THE BOY: You're dead The Father smiles sadly FATHER: We're both dead Weed starts falling in the swimming pool. It slowly covers the body of The Boy that is floating in the pool. None observes it FATHER (CONT'D): Wish we could start- THE BOY (CUTTING HIM OFF): We can't... Not anymore The pool catches fire. It burns with big flames, then stops suddenly. None observes it. Dude 2 enters and nods. The Father shakes his head FATHER (TO THE BOY): Are you sure this is what you want? THE BOY: No. But I want answers FATHER: You won't find them in there THE BOY: Maybe. But I must start looking for them somewhere FATHER: You are childish THE BOY:But I'm not a child FATHER: Why aren't you helping me out here? THE BOY: I have no answers The Father and the The Boy are sad. They messed it up and they know it. But things cannot be undone. The Father opens his mouth, but doesn't say anything. Exhales CLOSE UP - THE BOYS PROFILE WITH THE POOL IN THE BACKGROUND You can hear the door closing “...I'm sorry we're alone.” The Boy bows down his head. A black bird flies out from the pool and into the sky THE END
