 “In a little while from now if I’m not feeling any less sour I promise myself to treat myself and visit a nearby tower And climbing to the top will throw myself off in an effort to make it clear to whoever wants to know what it’s like when you’re shattered left standing in the lurch at a church where people are saying, my God, that’s tough she stood him up no point in us remaining we may as well go home as I did on my own alone again, naturally The girlfriend leaves him at the altar, there are no consolations, only desperation that leads to a continuous search for the courage to, one day or another, throw himself from a tower to see people’s reactions and explain to them how it feels to be shattered, alone again, naturally.
