Find another songGABE: What are you doing up?
GABE: It's 3:30
DIANA: It's the seventh night this week I've sat 'til morning
GABE: Oh, great, here we go
DIANA: Imagining the ways you might have died
GABE: Yep! And tonight's winner is?
DIANA: In a freak September ice storm with no warning
GABE: 'Cause that happens
DIANA: There's a gang war, there's a bird flu, trains collide
GABE: What did we say about watching the news?
DIANA: Now you act all sweet and surly
DIANA: But you swore you'd come home early
DIANA: And you lied
GABE: You gotta let go, Mom
GABE: I'm almost eighteen
DIANA: Are you snorting coke?
GABE: Not at the moment
DIANA: Who's up at this hour?
DIANA: Your father
DIANA: Go, up the back way
GABE: Why does he hate me?
DIANA: 'Cause you're a little twat
GABE: You can't call me a twat
DAN: Is everything okay? I heard voices
DIANA: Just me, talking to myself, y'know?
DIANA: Now you head on upstairs, I'll be up for *** in a minute
DAN: You'll-
DAN: Are you sure everything's okay?
DIANA: Mhm, go
