His Dark Materials

Music: Killing It by A Wilhelm Scream

I can't see how anyone could ever understand the plot to the original Mission: Impossible. A real CIA agent couldn't even figure it out. No matter how hard I try to pay attention and hear every line (as characters betray each other back and forth multiple times within a single scene), I somehow always get bored and distracted and miss something "important." I forgot this when I purchased the DVD and am only now remembering...

Just today I finished reading The Amber Spyglass, the last in the His Dark Materials trilogy (Golden Compass, Subtle Knife, etc.). I haven't been reading every day, but the characters and their plights have been stewing in my mind for over a month now and it got to the point where I really gave a shit about them. The ending is crazy and kinda depressing. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it all day.

To lose my words in this smoke filled room.
If there's a way out I will find out 'cuz it burns my black eyes red

Repress this.
My only regret: this memory.
So we can convince them that this is all we are (that this is all we are).

Watch the martrys when they face the ghosts.
Shake hands as the waste surrounds you.

Killing it, killing it (will only make it stronger).
Killing it, killing it (will only help it box you in).
Killing it, killing it (will only make you lose your way).

Shot down the last witness.
Committed to finish, this is the beginning I can't miss.
The fucking looks those people gave us. No fucking bullets can erase this.
