All this to say, 所有这一切说，

our future is a blank page 我们的未来是一个空白页

that we chose to pour ourselves into 我们选择了自己倾注

when God pressed play. 当上帝按下播放。

   

and we'll drag our pens 我们会拖我们的笔

into these parallel lines 在这些平行线

to record and to articulate 记录并阐明

everything we find. 一切，我们找到的。

   

as decades unlace, 几十年unlace ，

we'll pause and carefully trace; 我们会停下来，仔细追查;

our shadows are puddles of ink 我们的影子都墨水坑

that our memory saves. 在我们的记忆中保存。

   

layer by layer, the framework was formed 一层一层，形成的框架

on an epic of paper: 在纸张的史诗：

we breathe to explore. 我们呼吸的探索。

fast-forward motion 快进运动

will gracefully show 将正常显示

the flickering story 闪烁的故事

that all of our sketches unfold. 我们所有的草图展开。

   

before we were born 我们出生之前，

God gently told us the truth, 上帝轻轻地告诉我们真相，

but understanding is something that stops 但理解的东西，停止

as our bodies bruise. 因为我们的身体挫伤。

   

so we'll concentrate, 所以我们会集中精力，

constantly rewinding tapes. 不断倒带磁带。

was the ghost just a glare on the lens 是鬼只是一个刺眼的镜头

that our minds create? 在我们的脑海中产生？

our minds create... 我们的头脑创造...

when God pressed play. 当上帝按下播放。
