I've got baggage Life's too short, babe, time is flying I'm looking for baggage that goes with mine I should tell you I got baggage too I should tell you Baggage Wine and beer! AZT break You? Me. You? Mimi

Mimi: It's true you sold your guitar and bought a car? Roger: It's true. I'm leaving now for Santa Fe. It's true you're with this yuppie scum? Benny: You said you'd never speak to him again. Mimi: Not now. Maureen: Who said that you have any say in who she says things to at all? Roger: Yeah! Joanne: Who said that you should stick your nose in other peoples- Maureen: Who said I was talking to you? Joanne: We used to have this fight each night. Mark: Calm down! Joanne: She'd never admit I existed. Mimi: He was the same way. He was always run away, hit the road, don't commit. You're full of shit. Joanne: She's in denial. Mimi: He's in denial. Joanne: Didn't give an inch when I gave a mile. Mimi: I gave a mile. Roger: Gave a mile to who? Mark: Come on guys, chill. Mimi and Joanne: I'd be happy to die for a taste of what Angel had. Someone to live for. Unafraid to say 'I love you'. Roger: All your words are nice Mimi but love's not a three way street. You'll never share real love until you love yourself. I should know. Collins: You all said you'd be cool today so please, For my sake. I cant believe he's gone. I can't believe you're going. I can't believe this family must die. Angel helped us believe in love. I can't believe you'd disagree. All: I can't believe this is goodbye. Mark: I hear there are great restaurants out west. Roger: Some of the best. How could she? Mark: How could you let her go? Roger: You just don't know. How could we lose Angel? Mark: Maybe you'll see why when you stop escaping your pain. At least now if you try, Angels death won't be in vain. Roger: His death is in vain! Mark: Are you insane? There's so much to care about. There's me, there's Mimi. Roger: Mimi's got her baggage too. Mark: So do you. Roger: Who are you to tell me what I know? What to do? Mark: A friend! Roger: But who, Mark, are you? Mark has got his work, they say, Mark lives for his work. And Mark's in love with his work. Mark hides in his work. Mark: From what? Roger: From facing your failure. Facing your lonliness. Facing the fact you live a lie. Yes, you live a lie. Tell you why. You're always preaching not to be numb When that's how you thrive. You pretend to create and observe when you really detatch from feeling alive! Mark: Perhaps it's because I'm the one of us to survive. Roger: Poor baby! Mark: Mimi still loves Roger. Is Roger really jealous or afraid that Mimi's weak? Roger: Mimi did look pale. Mark: Mimi's gotten thin. Mimi's running out of time. Roger's running out the door. Roger: No more. Oh no. I've gotta go. Mark: Hey, for somebody who's always been let down, who's heading out of town? Roger: For someone who longs for a community of his own, who's with his camera, alone? I'll call. I hate the fall. You heard? Mimi: Every word. You don't want baggage without life time guarantees. You don't want to watch me die. I just came to say goodbye love. Goodbye love. Came to say Goodbye love. Goodbye. Just came to say Goodbye love. Roger: Glory. Mimi: Goodbye love. Roger: One blaze of glory. Mimi: Goodbye love. Roger: I have to find. Mimi: Goodbye. Please don't touch me. Understand I'm scared. I need to go away. Mark: I know a place. A clinic. Collins: A rehab? Mimi: Maybe. Could you? Benny: I'll pay. Mimi: Goodbye love. Goodbye love. Came to say goodbye love. Goodbye. Just came to say Goodbye love. Goodbye love. Goodbye love. Hello disease.
