“We eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner to the soundtrack of our own impending death.”

“Death has been here and where death has been no light shall ever be .”

“This is awful. This is so hopeless. We're all lost in different ways, so how do we even help each other find our way out. We won't. We can't. We'll just stay lost forever.”

“Maybe the only way our story can end is varying degrees of sad.”

“Imagine 4 years.Four years, two suicides, one death, one rape, two pregnancies (one abortion), three overdoses, countless drunken antics, pantsings, spilled food, theft, fights, broken limbs, turf wars–every day, a turf war–six months until graduation and no one gets a medal when they get out. But everything you do here counts. High school.”

“Funny how the last thing we want the world to see is almost the first thing to show.”

“We were beyond needing other people. Anyone else who happens on the both of us, they're just temps.”
