What did you do to stop it?

I,

I couldn't.

I couldn't.

You couldn't.

You couldn't, you couldn't,

you couldn't what?

What, were you f***ing

her to save the planet?

(rock music)

When I first started

filming Tom I felt like,

by filming my marriage, I

could somehow protect it.

But the more I capture the

things that were going on,

the more things

appeared that I feared,

that I couldn't control.

(dramatic music)

No!

(Ray groans)

(Tom grunting)

(dramatic music)

We're asleep

throughout our lives

and it's only in

death that we wake up,

just like we wake up

from sleep every morning.

This is a wake.

For Merle,

Starling,

and anyone and anything who

ever has died or ever will die.

Death is not the end.

Wakes are for the living.

(dramatic music)

("Until I Run Dry"

by Laura Barrett)

You've loved me forever

Until I ran dry

Then you said

goodbye for another

You held me so tightly

Until I asked why

Then you said

goodbye for another

And another

Goodbye

For another

When no other would do

Goodbye

For another

But no other

Came through

Goodbye

For another

When no other

Would do

Goodbye

For another

But no other

Came through

You've loved me forever

Until I ran dry

Then you said

goodbye for another

And another

Before I ran dry
