[00:00.44]Don stepped outside
[00:23.33]It felt good to be alone
[00:36.16]He wished he was drunk
[00:39.06]He thought about something he just said
[00:44.72]And how stupid it had sounded
[00:49.00]He really should forget about it
[00:51.64]He decided to piss, but he couldn't
[00:56.88](A plane passed silently overhead)
[01:00.62]The streetlights, and the buds on the trees and the night, were still
[01:17.84]It finally came, he took a deep breath
[01:23.00]It made him feel strong, and determined
[01:30.58]To go back inside
[02:35.29]The light
[02:38.87]Their backs
[02:42.21]The conversations
[02:44.17]The couples, romancing, so natural
[02:53.05]His friends stare
[02:56.73]With eyes like the heads of nails
[03:05.74]The others
[03:10.84]Glances
[03:17.53]With amusement
[03:19.12]With evasion
[03:21.04]With contempt
[03:22.86]So distant
[03:24.48]With malice
[03:26.20]For being a sty in their engagement
[03:33.38]Like swimming underwater in the darkness
[03:37.02]Like walking through an empty house
[03:39.39]Speaking to an imaginary audience
[03:42.32]And being watched from outside by
[03:45.71]Someone without a key
[03:49.88]He could not dance to anything
[04:11.37]Don left
[04:13.50]And drove
[04:15.00]And howled
[04:16.74]And laughed
[04:18.46]At himself
[04:21.14]He felt he knew what that was
[05:17.67]Don woke up
[05:25.91]And looked at the night before
[05:31.02]He knew what he had to do
[05:35.51]He was responsible
[05:38.89]In the mirror
[05:41.12]He saw his friend

Don stepped outside
It felt good to be alone
He wished he was drunk
He thought about something he just said
And how stupid it had sounded
He really should forget about it
He decided to piss, but he couldn't
(A plane passed silently overhead)
The streetlights, and the buds on the trees and the night, were still
It finally came, he took a deep breath
It made him feel strong, and determined
To go back inside
The light
Their backs
The conversations
The couples, romancing, so natural
His friends stare
With eyes like the heads of nails
The others
Glances
With amusement
With evasion
With contempt
So distant
With malice
For being a sty in their engagement
Like swimming underwater in the darkness
Like walking through an empty house
Speaking to an imaginary audience
And being watched from outside by
Someone without a key
He could not dance to anything
Don left
And drove
And howled
And laughed
At himself
He felt he knew what that was
Don woke up
And looked at the night before
He knew what he had to do
He was responsible
In the mirror
He saw his friend
