Louie sat crying in his room. he wiped away his tears and said "No more tears'

"You shout it out

But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up"

Louie said while sanding up he walked to his window.

"I'm bulletproof nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium, I am titanium, I am titanium, I am titanium"

Louie repeated this till he believed it.

Louie saw Della talking to Dewey outside. Louie yelled

"Cut me down

But it's you who has further to fall
Ghost town, haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much"

No one heard him. He made his way to his bead and collapsed.

"I'm bulletproof nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium, I am titanium"

He buried his face in his knees. He took out a picture of Della and screamed at it.

"Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard, thus bulletproof glassYou shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium
I am titanium"

Louie cracked the glass frame like the cracks in his heart.
