[00:22.56] | These are your instructions |
[00:25.43] | Should you choose to follow |
[00:27.87] | Sit down with pen and paper |
[00:31.00] | Begin with something hollow |
[00:33.24] | Like the last words he offered |
[00:35.74] | No kind of explanation |
[00:38.12] | They only take up space here |
[00:40.81] | You do not need to save them |
[00:43.81] | |
[00:48.43] | Open up the closet |
[00:52.24] | Find his winter coat there |
[00:53.81] | Check inside the pockets |
[00:56.18] | Find a crumpled note there |
[00:58.99] | It says "milk and Sunday paper" |
[01:01.87] | And a heart smudged in blue ink |
[01:03.53] | |
[01:04.78] | Fold it up and box it before you've time to think |
[01:08.85] | |
[01:14.28] | Sundays are the hardest |
[01:15.85] | |
[01:16.78] | Avoid familiar back roads |
[01:18.47] | |
[01:20.60] | Erase the old phone numbers |
[01:22.41] | Delete all the photos |
[01:24.97] | And those you haven't heard from |
[01:27.29] | Will come as no surprise |
[01:29.72] | They made their calculation |
[01:32.91] | When they chose a side |
[01:36.41] | |
[01:46.04] | These are your instructions |
[01:48.41] | When you become reclusive |
[01:51.79] | |
[01:53.16] | When old friends say they miss you |
[01:54.81] | When sleep becomes elusive |
[01:56.50] | Fill up every journal |
[01:58.37] | Empty every shoebox |
[02:01.06] | Burn the lists and letters |
[02:03.56] | Sweep out all the old thoughts |
[02:06.06] | Shake off all the covers |
[02:08.68] | Throw every window open |
[02:10.94] | Stand here in your bare feet |
[02:13.69] | Welcome in the morning |
[02:16.19] | These are your instructions |
[02:18.93] | When grace has left you stranded |
[02:21.81] | When you are lost and wounded |
[02:23.52] | |
[02:24.40] | Bleeding and abandoned |
[02:25.21] | |
[02:36.71] | Use a tourniquet for pressure |
[02:39.77] | Let time do it's healing |
[02:42.09] | Say prayers for good measure |
[02:44.71] | When you think you've lost all feeling |
[02:47.02] | Now walk into the guest room |
[02:49.77] | The last place he was sleeping |
[02:52.21] | See the outline on the pillow |
[02:54.77] | Smooth it without weeping |
[02:56.71] | |
[03:02.52] | One last final walk through |
[03:05.27] | Now move the bags and boxes |
[03:07.52] | From front porch onto back seat |
[03:09.40] | |
[03:10.90] | Haul away the losses |
[03:12.52] | |
[03:13.21] | These are your instructions |
[03:15.40] | If you choose to follow |
[03:18.15] | Stop and take a big breath |
[03:20.27] | |
[03:20.90] | Begin with something hollow |
