== Synopsis ==
The player treats Cole as he sings a song about his writer's block. He sings about his lack of inspiration, his self-doubt and the unhealthy habits he's developed, where he deprives himself of pleasure and continues ignoring his friends as a result of his frustration with his writer's block. At the end of the level, Logan, Hailey, and the Samurai are all present, having listened to Cole's song. They all cheer him on and compliment his performance. After the level, Paige speaks with Cole about his writer's block, as he elaborates on it, with Paige trying her best to listen to him and help him out. However, Ian emphasizes the lack of time they have to focus in on one patient for an extended period of time. Paige reluctantly listens to Ian, as Ian bids an abrupt goodbye to Cole, telling Cole that they'll check up on him later.

Lyrics

File > New, stare at nothing for an hour or two,
Drop in a beat, like a hundred other artists would do,
Click in some chords, like a hundred other artists could do, like
Probably gonna hit that "don't save changes", again
Used to write a song a day...(Used to write a song a day)
It's just that lately my perfection's in the way, of me,
and I can't make no changes to save me...

Wish I could write more, care less,
Wish I could write more, and care less,
Write more, and care less,
and care less

Sometimes I'm angry I'm not doing better
than I thought I'd do at this point
I punish myself by depriving my health
of the things that I like until I fix this
But it doesn't really help I just get more depressed
I do even less cause I can't work when I'm stressed
And ignoring my friends, means when I'm finally done,
there'll be no one left to make this all worth it...

oh I've been thinking too much
and now two hours have passed
and I've got nothing to show...
I guess tomorrow
We'll give it another go
