1:05:01
And I can stop thinking.
1:05:03
I'm ashamed!
1:05:05
That's why I'm a drunk.
When I'm drunk I can stand myself.

1:05:08
But the truth is always there
in the morning, isn't it?

1:05:12
And it's here right now.
1:05:15
You're just feeling sorry for yourself.
That's all it is. Self-pity!

1:05:19
You didn't kill Skipper. He killed himself.
1:05:21
You, Skipper and lots like you,
living in a kid's world...

1:05:24
...playing games, touchdowns,
no worries, no responsibilities.

1:05:28
Life ain't no damn football game.
1:05:31
Life ain't just a bunch of high spots.
1:05:34
You're a 30-year-old kid.
Soon you'll be a 50-year-old kid...

1:05:38
...pretending you hear cheers
when there ain't any.

1:05:40
Dreaming and drinking your life away.
1:05:43
Heroes in the real world...
1:05:44
...live 24 hours a day,
not just two hours in a game.

1:05:48
Mendacity! You won't--
1:05:54
You won't live with mendacity,
but you're an expert at it.

1:05:57
The truth is pain and sweat...
1:06:00
...paying bills and making love to a woman
that you don't love anymore.

1:06:04
The truth is dreams that don't come true...
1:06:06
...and nobody prints your name
in the paper till you die.

1:06:15
Now, here.
1:06:20
The truth is you never growed up.
1:06:22
-Grown-ups don't hang up on friends.
-Get away.

1:06:24
And they don't hang up on their wives.
They don't hang up on life.

1:06:28
Now that's the truth that you can't face.
1:06:30
-Can you face the truth?
-Try me.

1:06:32
Sure, somebody else's truth!
1:06:34
-You're running again.
-Yeah, I am.

1:06:35
Running from lies,
like birthday congratulations...

1:06:38
...and many happy returns of the day
when there won't be any, and--

1:06:53
Please, let me go home.
1:06:56
-What did you say?
-I don't remember.

1:06:57
-There won't be any happy returns?
-Forget it.
