You noticed your friend has been acting kind of odd these past few weeks, being slow to respond and not seeming as cheerful as they used to. You walk into their house without knocking, you don't mean to be rude but you know if you knock they'll probably just put on another fake smile and pretend everything is perfectly good... But you know something isn't right, and you need to know what's going on. But to your surprise, upon walking in, you see them hitting the play button on a boombox, and some slow sad music starts to play, and they sing to it, facing away and not realizing you're seeing them.
"Hello, how have you been today? The same question for the fifth time this week How forgetful was that chatty cliche? Everything seems ordinary to me Should I tell you I've been feeling down? 'Cause, well that's not really new Oh well, I'll say something somehow Though you want to hear me ramble There's not much that I can say 'Cause everything seems normal There's nothing to it, though And how I feel, the face I show the world They all seem so slow..." You just sit there, in shock, listening as they sing... "Everything seems normal No need to be upset Don't concern yourself with my unhappiness 'Cause I'm sure it's normal ...to lose interest in life And to wish you never tried Isn't that what you call normal? There is nothing I want The only reason I went on Is 'Cause you'll feel regretful if I died I've written three set-aside notes Eight attempts without any results But why should my stories be told? They all seem too ordinary to me..." You... Wow. This is a lot bigger than you thought it was... You end up letting a small but audible gasp out, and they quickly turn around and almost fall over in shock, and quickly turn the boombox off and start to sweat and shake, realizing you just saw that all.
