Look, 131 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 7: I don't know why I'm telling you all this. I 132 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 7: just got to catch my breath. I thought I saw 133 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 7: a guy come to his window, but he ducked back 134 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 7: in and turned up the radio. So I crawled to 135 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 7: the nearest door and it was locked. 136 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 3: I was on the ground, crawling. Jesus Christ. There was 137 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 3: so much blood like an oil leaf behind me. And 138 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 3: then and then he was back. 139 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 6: Yeah. 140 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 4: I came looking for you then, but I couldn't find you. 141 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 142 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 7: Well, I wasn't done yet. I knew I was going 143 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 7: to be dead, but I didn't want to let go, 144 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 7: not like that. I stood up and I backed away 145 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 7: from myself and everything, and I watched over everything, and 146 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 7: watched him finish his business with me and run off again, 147 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 7: a coward, And I felt you, you know, the way 148 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 7: you feel lightning in the sky. So I slipped into 149 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 7: the cracks and I waited for you to pass. 150 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 3: And I waited. 151 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 7: I were cops everywhere talking to the neighbors. Poor Missus 152 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 7: Ferrara across the hall She was always real good to me. 153 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 7: She cried real hard, She never did anything wrong.
