Ember walked back to her home and put her guitar away, she sat down on her bed and sighed in sadness. She then saw her bouquet sitting beside her, she picked it up and just threw it on the floor. Desiree came into her room and then sat down beside her, placing her hand on her shoulder trying to comfort her.
"What's wrong Ember?" Desiree asked.
"Maybe Danny's right. Maybe we are too different" Ember said sadly. The parrot came out as she continued, "Maybe he does belong with her. After all she's got a beating heart, beautiful eyes and all that"
"Oh but you got so much more than her" The parrot said. Desire nodded in agreement and said, "He's right. You have…uh…you've got a wonderful personality"
THE PARROT
What does that wispy little brat have that you don't have double?
DESIREE
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile
EMBER
How about a pulse?
THE PARROT
Overrated by a mile
DESIREE
Overbearing
THE PARROT
Overblown
DESIREE AND THE PARROT
If he only knew the you that we know
Ember sighed, it wasn't helping her feel better at all. So she just leaned forward and continued to sulk. Desiree gave a warm smile and gestured to the ring on her finger.
DESIREE
And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring
THE PARROT
And she doesn't play guitar
DESIREE AND THE PARROT
Or dance
Or sing
No she doesn't compare
EMBER
But she still breathes air
DESIREE AND THE PARROT
Who cares?
Unimportant
Overrated
Overblown
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know
Ember stood up and just continued to look down, as she remembered all the differences between her and Sam. She walked over and sat on the floor in front of the door.
EMBER
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
If you cut me with a knife it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
For it seems that I still have a tear to shed
Desiree and the parrot decided to try one more time to try and make her feel better. They both walked over and while the parrot sat down on her right shoulder, Desiree placed her arm around her other one.
THE PARROT
The sure redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive
DESIREE
Overrated
THE PARROT
Overblown
DESIREE
Everybody know that's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate
Cujo picked up her bouquet and placed it down near her feet.
DESIREE AND THE PARROT
Who cares?
Unimportant
Overrated
Overblown
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know
Ember just stood up and brushed placed the parrot off her shoulder, she then walked over to her bed and laid down and just continued to sulk.
EMBER
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the sun it's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is aching
Though it doesn't beat its breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
Ember turned to the side and pressed her face into her pillow and wept, Desiree and the parrot sighed sadly and then left the room to give her some time alone.
