Mar adentro

Fear is a very powerful weapon. Fear doesn't give you the freedom to decide. You're telling me this right now because of this fear. Maybe down the road you'll back out again because of that,
because of the same fear. Don't act out of fear.

— Why are you smiling so much, Ramón?
— When you can't escape and you constantly rely on everyone else, you learn to... cry by smiling, you know?

— Ramón, my friend, a freedom that ends life is no freedom at all.
— And a life that ends freedom isn't a life either. And don't call me "friend."

Out to sea.
Out to sea.
And in the weightlessness of the deep, where dreams are fulfilled,
Two wills come together to fulfill a wish.
Your gaze and my gaze like an echo repeating wordlessly,
Farther out,
farther out,
Beyond the other side of everything, through blood and bones.
But I always wake up and I always want to be dead,
Your hair forever caressing my lips.

— You don't like to look back, do you?
— No, of course not. I look to the future.
— And what's in your future?
— Death. Same with you. Or you never think about death? As if I were the only one who thinks about death.
— Yes, of course I think about it. I just try to avoid it being the only thing I think about.
