Interlude One: I Want to Live My Life
Interludes will be musical scenes exploring the backstory of whoever is the most evil character in the story at that time.
(Leo is shown slipping on a green jacket, he exits a house in a small town, he smiles at sun, and walks down the street as the first verse plays.)
Imagine a world where I'm happy,
Make up a place where it's OK.
But as the darkness grows,
I feel more alone.
(Leo walks through a portal, entering the fictional world, where he waves and smiles at passersby.)
They all treat me with kindness,
But they don't see the hatred in my soul.
If I said who I am really am…
(The passersby all glare at Leo, death in their eyes, the world turns monochromatic.)
They'll jump me like rabid dogs.
I don't have a choice,
All I can do is hide.
I trust the love in my heart and soul,
But the hatred is growing.
(Color returns to the world as Leo, now masked stand over the corpse of a young woman.)
And as the life in her eyes faded.
I felt that I had become wicked.
I'm scum too,
But I'm still better than all of them.
(Leo turns towards a castle, within which stands a faceless boy in a purple jacket.)
Everything I've done since that fateful day,
Has been for the brother I knew.
But his face has faded away,
I can't recall his smile anymore.
I swear you'll be avenged.
(Leo points his pen at the boy.)
Even from yourself.
And if you think you're better than me,
You're probably right to think so.
But most people seem to be worse than I,
Which terrifies me to no end.
If I'm the best I have that's even worse,
Cause if I'm the best we have God we're in trouble.
(Leo is shown standing atop a mountain, looking over a valley, the camera pans over the valley, showing kids being beat, teens drinking and doing drugs, kids being emotionally abused, etc. A younger Leo walks through this scene, growing up surrounded by it. He grows more tired as the scene goes on before ending on adult Leo looking back on it all.)
My pen is the only weapon I have to fight back.
I'll use my fiction to win!
Success or death cause I won't fall here.
I want to live my life.
I want to live my life.
I want to live my life.
I want to live my life.
I want to live my life as me.
