8 | Walking along in the dark is a good way to begin a song. Walking home in | ||
9 | the dark after a long day chasing criminals is another. Running away | ||
10 | from an imagined evil is no way to begin a story. | ||
11 | |||
12 | I am telling you this because you wanted to know what it's like to tell | ||
13 | something so beautiful everyone will cry. I am telling you because I | ||
14 | want you to know what it is to keep everything inside of you. I am | ||
15 | telling you. | ||
16 | |||
17 | Can you see? Can you see into me and reach in your hand and pull me | ||
18 | inside out, like an [old shirt][]? Will you wear me until I unravel on your | ||
19 | shoulders, will you cut me apart and use my skin to clean up the cola | ||
20 | you spill on the floor when you're drunk? | ||
21 | |||
22 | I want you to know that I want you to know. Do you want me? To know is | ||
23 | to know. I, you want we. We want. That is why we're here. To want is to | ||
24 | be is to want and I want you. Do you also? Check yes or no. | ||
25 | |||
26 | There is a way to end every story, [every song][]. Every criminal must be | ||
27 | caught. Even those who cry dry their tears. I cannot tell you all I want | ||
28 | because I want to tell you everything. There is no art because there is | ||
29 | no mirror big enough. We wake up every day. Sometimes we sleep. | ||
