What do you think?

"Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress, such a pretty smile!"

No, seriously, do you think I have a chance?

"Que sera sera, whatever will be will be."

Song lyrics aren't the answer to everything, you know.

"Music makes the world go around, the world go around, the world go around."

See, you just proved my point. Those aren't the actual lyrics.

....................

Can't you say anything?

I don't know what she'd say. You know I'm not really here, right?

...Yeah, I know. I just miss her so much.

"Mother isn't here now, who knows what she'd say?"

I'm really not feeling that song; I've never felt more alone.

"You are not alone, truly."

Easy for you to say, you're all in my head.

"Me and my shadow, not a soul to tell our troubles to."

That seems about right, or this one, "But where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns."

"Don't bother, they're here."
