Summer after high school, when we first met

And on my 18th birthday, we got matching tattoos

Used to steal your parents liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

In another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world

No one without the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, woah

Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown, singing the blues
It's time to face the music,
GIRLS:

    The Drunkard

    In The Drunkard by Frank O'Connor the three kinds of narrative irony are exemplified in what Larry does at the public house; what the neighbors believe about what happened at the public house; what Larry's mother calls him the next day. The three kinds of narrative irony are situational irony, in which a situation is, becomes or turns out to be something other than what is expected; dramatic irony, in which the reader/audience knows what the characters in the narrative do not know; verbal (spoken or written) irony, in which what is said is not what is expected.…

    The Patriot

    A. The Patriot – there is no direct explanation for the deviation from fact but it is acknowledged that there are many discrepancies within the movie, “There was no such person as Benjamin Martin” and “The most serious deviation from the historical record was the incineration of the occupied church: There is no record of any such event”. This movie was an intentional deviation from fact and a mish mash of similar event surrounding that time simply for entertainment value. The movie provided just enough shock and awe, i.e. the church scene, to make one feel upset and outraged that such a thing could have ever happened in this country. The writers surely wanted to spark intrigue into the era while entertaining the viewer, but somehow lost grip with reality and accuracy.…

    The Patriot

    The Patriot is a 2000 American historical war film. The film mainly takes place in York County, South Carolina. The movie depicts a story of an American who is swept into the American Revolutionary War when his family is threatened. Benjamin Martin, one of the main figures, is based on four real American Revolutionary heroes being: Andrew Pickens, Francis Marion, Daniel Morgan, and Thomas Sumter. In the movie, Benjamin Martin (Mel Gibson), a veteran of the French and Indian War and widower with seven children, is called to Charleston to vote in the South Carolina General Assembly on a levy supporting the Continental Army. Benjamin decides to abstain for the fear of a war against Great Britain. Some years later, Benjamin is given the rank of colonel to lead the local colonel militia. Benjamin’s militia harass British supply lines, capture goods, and burn half the bridges and ferries leading to Charleston. Cornwallis blames Tavington for creating these reactions and allows Tavington to do whatever is necessary to stop Benjamin’s militia. Tavington then starts to attack family members of the militia and burn their homes. Tavington assembles all of the townspeople of the village of Wakefield into their church, promising to free them if they give up the secret location of the hideout. When the let loose of the secret, the church doors are barricaded, trapping all of the townspeople inside, and the church is burned down. When Gabriel, one of Benjamin’s sons, gets word of what Tavington had done to the townspeople, he races to attack Tavington. Gabriel had thought to have mortally wounded Tavington, but it turned out that Tavington was faking. Tavington murdered Gabriel by stabbing him through his heart. Benjamin’s militia, along with a larger Continental Army, confront Cornwallis in battle. Benjamin gets revenge of his sons’ death by killing Tavington in the battle. The battle ended up to be a Continental victory and Cornwallis is forced to retreat.…
