aw baby
you didn't mind it when i made you bleed

[ james masochist gordon ]

Which time?

Because the last few times, yeah, I did. Always seem to bleed around you.

you were always such a bleeding heart

i liked that about you, jim
always better than everyone else

I'm not. Probably worse than most.

I just wanna give the better people a chance.

newsflash, jim
there are no "better people" in gotham
when you realize that you'll be better off
trust me

There are. I've met them, sometimes they are where you least expect them.

You know they exist. It's just easier pretending they don't.

do you ever get bored hearing yourself talk, jimmy?
that self righteousness would put any good soul to sleep

Sure, that's how I fall asleep at night.

There's good in this city. That's worth protecting.

oh, jim
sometimes you are so cute when you're being so stupid
one day you'll wake up and realize that handsome reflection you see in the mirror is of the only good man in the city

I don't know how much good there's left in me. But that's worth it, keeps others safe.

You can't keep your armour shining in this city.

I'm sorry about that, for you too.

i've never shined so brightly as i do right now
and you want to know why? i found myself, jimbo
pulled the wool from my eyes and saw myself for who i really was
you may say i'm imperfect and crazy, but i'm free, baby, and that makes me better than you
