00:00:12,559 --> 00:00:18,680
I took your pen.

6
00:00:15,639 --> 00:00:21,800
I took a moment.

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:24,800
I bit my lip

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:27,920
until it bled.   My

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,960
heart was heavy

10
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:34,280
as a firmament.   As

11
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:37,120
big as my

12
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:41,480
old dreams,

13
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:45,399
bent over the page without a single erasure, written

14
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:49,960
by the secretary of a firm with four

15
00:00:45,399 --> 00:00:53,879
names that sound foreign.  leaning

16
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:56,879
over the signature line, the gesture

17
00:00:53,879 --> 00:00:59,800
suspended, the anchor

18
00:00:56,879 --> 00:01:03,120
ready to flee

19
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:05,960
a cramp in the

20
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:09,200
palm of the hand

21
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:12,119
and another in

22
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:15,320
the kidneys.

23
00:01:12,119 --> 00:01:19,439
I no longer knew my name

24
00:01:15,320 --> 00:01:21,799
cut from yours

25
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:23,200
by a my

26
00:01:21,799 --> 00:01:24,640
sorrow

[Music]

28
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:33,320
bent over this sheet that looked like a rigged will, a

29
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:36,960
confession signed to

30
00:01:33,320 --> 00:01:41,159
poor, weak and bewildered people.  I was

31
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:47,439
losing my mind.  I was looking for a way

32
00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:49,360
to hate you.  The anchor ready to soil everything.

33
00:01:47,439 --> 00:01:50,640
The wrist was tense.

34
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,240
The wrist was tense.

35
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,759
I rolled up my sleeve.

36
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,840
You rolled up your sleeve.

37
00:01:53,759 --> 00:01:59,880
My sweaty hand was

38
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:01,680
completely white.

39
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,960
I looked at the paper.

40
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,600
The hair of the knotted people made

41
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:09,200
the sentences blurry.

42
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:12,080
Run into your neck.  I felt

43
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:15,640
my knees buckle.   Did I have to

44
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:18,959
sign backwards what

45
00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:22,319
I had signed forwards?  A

46
00:02:18,959 --> 00:02:26,120
small, melting warrior, an antidote to that of the

47
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:30,120
old contract.  You were waiting for my drop

48
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:31,640
of ink, just like you wait for Christmas.

49
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:36,440
Impatience makes

50
00:02:31,640 --> 00:02:40,120
the weeks more pleasant.  I looked up.   right

51
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:43,239
into your eyes.

52
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:47,200
I stared at you once and for all to see what

53
00:02:43,239 --> 00:02:47,200
hope I had left.

54
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,680
I put your pen in.

55
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,280
You put my pen

56
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,159
on the rub paper,

57
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,519
on the rub paper,

58
00:02:59,159 --> 00:03:04,519
treated with

59
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:04,519
loneliness.

60
00:03:04,959 --> 00:03:09,720
I signed my name.  I had to force myself to sign your name

61
00:03:08,239 --> 00:03:11,159
next to yours,

62
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,599
next to mine.

63
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:17,440

64
00:03:14,599 --> 00:03:20,319

65
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:23,760
You picked up your pen and

66
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:26,200
then your document.

67
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:29,879
It was time to say goodbye,

68
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:32,519
but we didn't quite know how you

69
00:03:29,879 --> 00:03:35,439
got your coat.

70
00:03:32,519 --> 00:03:38,280
You took a moment, a moment,

71
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:41,439
you bit your lip until it

72
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:44,400
bled.

73
00:03:41,439 --> 00:03:47,519
You looked as if you were staring blankly

74
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:51,239
into space.   I

75
00:03:47,519 --> 00:03:53,660
must have misjudged it.

76
00:03:51,239 --> 00:03:56,490
Definitely.
