At the moment, Xavier is working at a supermarket and he can't pay for his studies or buy books, so he should try to get into a public college.

Xavier is brave, determined and doesn't complain about life because he knows that things could be worse than they are now.

Wherever You Will Go (The Calling)
So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone, could you make it on your own
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'll go wherever you will go
Love Me Again (John Newman)
It's unforgivable,
I stole and burnt your soul
Is that what demons do?
They rule the worst of me
Destroy everything,
They bring down angels like you
Now I'm rising from the ground
Rising up to you
Filled with all the strength I found
There's nothing I can't do!
I need to know now
Know now, can you love me again?
