1. Rest Stop by Mary

Rest Stop by Mary
Just three miles from the rest stop
And she slams on the breaks
She said I tried to be but I'm not
And could you please collect your things
I don't wanna be cold
I don't wanna be cruel
But I gotta find more
Than what's happening with you
If you'd - open up the door


She's stopped speaking to me. He's back and she doesn't talk to me anymore. She barely acknowledges my presence anymore. Okay, logically I knew this would happen, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. He left her and I was here for her, but she is with him and not me. That's not the way it is supposed to be. I was the good guy, the nice guy. I was the friend. God, how I hate that. Being the friend. I don't want to be her friend! I want to be the one to hold her and make her smile. But she doesn't talk to me anymore.

She said - while you were sleeping
I was listening to the radio
And wondering what you're dreaming when
It came to mind that I didn't care
So I thought - hell if it's over
I had better end it quick
Or I could lose my nerve
Are you listening - can you hear me
Have you forgotten


The Professor and Ms. Grey have both asked me if I was okay. I told them I am even though I know that they know I am not. I want to make him go away. I've thought about freezing him solid, but what would I do with him then? Up until now I had really liked my power, but now... Now I wish I had a power like Remy's or even Jubilee's. I wish I could blow things up. I want to blow something up.

Just three miles from the rest stop
And my mouth's too dry to rage
The light was shining from the radio
I could barely see her face
But she knew all the words that I never had said
She knew the crumpled-up promise of this
Broken down man - and as I opened up the door
