Part 2 of 2_The police guard replies (who else can it be?)

Inside a private room in the Singapore Subordinate Courts, The teary-eyed police guard revealed his true feelings after making news headlines recently.

Investigations revealed that the “Police guard did not react in accordance with established procedures.” While waiting for disciplinary actions to be dished out to him, my reporter managed to squeeze out this piece of juicy news from the police guard. Turn up your speakers volume, click “Play” and read the following section in purple.

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do (such as open the cell gate?)
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go (go = kena sacked)
That I just want you to know
I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new (to be a better police guard?)
And the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear
I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to be (used to be complacent?)
A reason to start over newand the reason is YOU (the escapee, the public, my boss, the minister, who arr?)
And the reason is YOU [x3]
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to be (used to be complacent?)
A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
[Six months later... ...]


My reporter discovered that The police guard has been demoted and even sacked. While traveling on the MRT, my reporter sighted him at the extreme end of a cabin. She walked up to him and chit chatted. Below is what the Police guard revealed to her.
Sit back, Click on “Play”, and read (the section in blue) what the Police guard has to say to the public.
All day
Staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall (I have been sacked!)
All night
Hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on
I'm feeling like I'm headed for a
Breakdown
I don't know why
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be (I can be a responsible police guard too)
Me
Talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
I know
I know they've all been talking 'bout me (gossiping, lor)
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong
With me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow
I've lost my mind (how could I anyhow open the cell gate?)
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
I been talking in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be (I can be a responsible police guard too)
Hey, how I used to be
How I used to be, yeah
Well I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
