Raphael was being punished. Again. Frustrated he let the dishes in the sink clatter when the water ran too hot. His brothers were in the other room playing loudly.

The window's cracked, I'm looking out
I see Them and I'm filled with doubt

Tinkering with is bike Raph just gave up letting oil leak all over his hands. He growled and curled his hands into fists. After that last fight with Leo not even his calm garage could calm him.

I don't know if this parking place
Is just another empty space

Raph was in a blind rage. Puting full force into every punch, kick, and stab the poor punching bag had to take for Mikeys sake. He was still plagued by the memory of almost bashing his youngest brothers head in. "No. No...you...you!"

Words I've said aren't coming true
I don't know if it's me or you
This promise is too hard to keep
I have to speak

He and his father were in a one sided screaming match. Splinters fur bristled and his ears were flat. He was giving every sign that his son had gone too far.

So what, I lied
But the truth would've been suicide
Monogamy is all you want from me
But I see my life
And it's way too short
Don't blame me for not being subservient to others' needs
I'm at the point where honesty just doesn't fucking work for me

Every ounce of will power went into not striking his brother. Raphael was in the flip corner doing flips. He was geting increasingly sloppy because Mikey was testing his luck. Finally Raph turned to his brother who realized he'd gone too far. Mikey ran, but Raph followed clouded with rage.

I did my best to try and be
A mirror of society
But we both know the mirror's cracked
And everybody's in the act
Faking what they cannot feel

Raph caught up to his brother. He could hear Mikey pleading, but didn't even hear him let alone care. He'd picked up a hard object he didn't even know what it was. He raised it over his head ready to strike. His brother Leo grabbed his arm. His whole family was there as shocked as he was.

Hoping they can make it real
Reality is killing me

The red masked ninja and his oldest brother stood facing eachother. They had both stopped listening to eachother and were both trying to out yell eachother to get their point across. It would get physical at any moment.

So what, I lied
But the truth would've been suicide
Monogamy is all you want from me
But I see my life
And it's way too short
Don't blame me for not being subservient to others' needs
I'm at the point where honesty just doesn't fucking work for me

Raph went to April and Caseys place. Casey wasen't there so he was hoping April'd see his point and agree with him. She began to tell him he was over reacting.

Monogamy is all she wants from me
But I see my life
And it's way too short

In a moment of scilence before the Shredders home exploded. Watching this you could see all the foot ninja's who did not escape in time.

Erect a life I'll never see
I'll stand back from the scenery
And laugh at all the other guys
Who never could escape in time

His brothers' had screwed themselves over having picked on him. Even Leo was about to get it. He lunged at his brothers throwing dangerous and wild swings at them as they fled until his father figure told him sternly that they needed to talk.

Stuck like flies on sticky tongues
Chewed up 'fore their life is done
I'm not here to compromise or apologize

Splinter's patience was wearing thin. His hot-headed son was not the least bit sorry of his treatment of his brothers'.

So what, I lied
But the truth would've been suicide
Monogamy is all she wants from me
But I see my life
And it's way too short
Don't blame me for not being subservient to others' needs
I'm at the point where honesty just doesn't fucking work for me

He always felt trapped in some way down in the sewer. What a waste it was for anyone to think they could punish him into staying down there. That would be too much punishment.

Life-is too fucking short
It's too fucking short
It's too fucking short
