Vietnam you always thought I took the

easy way out no no no no we were friends

word for

it for a long

time that's what I thought I was doing

all that gone for

you against

you

privilege

responsibility and I was

I was just a guy trying to uh take the

next

step to find out where that

something yeah well we'll see what any

of us wind up with

houses hers and

Wards she got mixed

up

some fool group thing

try

and who

knows blow up

something she always was

a pretty spunky kid maybe more than any

you other kids

doesn't doesn't explain to

me why she's still going out

there does that that make any sense to

you I don't

[Music]

know

funny

so I'm sure

sometimes partial to one kid or

another I always

thought D it's all

[Music]

right I

respect what you did there

[Music]

wanted you to know

[Music]

that yeah

yeah as far as I'm concerned there's no

sense you being down by the creek there

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

was I such a bad

lover don't

move don't

worry I'm just going to set up

so you finally had

enough you're finally going to have your

revenge have you ever killed a

man particularly a naked

man there's something about killing a

man with his clothes on which

neutralizes the

process it doesn't protect him from

death but somehow the naked bodyy

unprotected ceasing to

function turning an odd

color it's so much more

real

ugly here I

am this monster who has dominated

you subjugated

you go ahead

you see yourself as the savior of your

people the one who will finally kill the

devil for

you and for

them though my death will change the

world you understand

nothing not me not your own weakness

you need

me you hate me but you need

me I'm no

murder your weakness is

pathetic I was wondering how long it

would take until you felt H at him ation

of the

gun you're not coming back to bed

waiting up for the bad girl to finally

get home

huh Ellie I'm sorry I don't want your

damn

sorry I know I don't want your pity your

understanding or your

forgiveness it was my fault oh good good

that'll do it that'll let me sleep a lot

better fine a little sadism from the bad

guys why not some from the good guys

don't take this

alone what are you going to do about it

now huh what are you going to do about

it

now go me

go no let's

go no let's go of me

no they took me out

and raped

me

this wasn't supposed to happen to me

you don't have to tell me yes I do I do

I have

to there is a life lesson in all

this I just

uh I just wish to God I could find

it I

complained as you might guess I I

complained my protest was filed with the

commander of the UN

SSU and a few days later a car arrived

from the barracks and took me to the

commander helmet

he had

the had the men beaten in front of

me I

watched at least he said it was the men

who' done

it it made me sick but I was

glad it felt so so good to get even

he

uh he invited

me to

dinner in his

quarters he

was he was so Charming he

was so

powerful he apologized he

said he said that I

was still

beautiful that the

men hadn't damaged

me but I was

I and here he was

telling me that I was still

beautiful that I was still

special he made love to

me I let

him right

and

raped how can I hate him so much who he

is what he's doing here everything and

still be so afraid that he won't want

[Music]

me it's pretty degraded don't you

think you have all

these ideas

about how strong you'll be

how you'll live up to

these great expectations of

yourself and then you end up just

doing just

surviving no

heroics no

no strength of

character not even

dignity

just just afraid your rapist won't take

you to bed

don't you sometimes wonder if our

ancestors ever wanted to give

up they thought they were living and

dying for

something I bet they didn't ask the

question very

often they just

lived and

[Music]

believed every win they just F like hell

to stay

alive do you

remember in Great Grandpa's

journals we talked

about being out of wood and family all

huddled

together 60 mph winds were tearing at

The Dugout

and and they still had time to to write

and

laugh and

sing there was this entry where he's

talking about Great

Grandma

Irma was talking about

her standing

there holding her dead baby in her arms

arms

singing Rock of

Ages I don't

know maybe we're just too

soft maybe we just don't know what's

worth feeling that way about all my life

I've believed that I was fighting for

something I always thought that I

believed in

something so I kept turning it over in

my

mind hoping it was still inside my head

somewhere where they couldn't get at

it I looked at it so many

ways finally meant

nothing it meant

nothing living dying courage cowardice

they lose their meaning if there's no

choice you always believed that you

could make that choice right you always

believed had faith in giving people the

chance to make that choice they can't

have taken that away from you when I ran

for president it wasn't just me I lost

faith

in I lost faith in

everybody nobody wanted to risk anything

for anybody

else everybody afraid they were going to

lose what they had

they knew it was

bad they were just afraid it'd get

worse that's all they live

for for things not to get worse I don't

care about everybody else you can't just

do

nothing you can't believe that the lives

of your children mean

nothing it's not in your blood

it's not in your
