Ramon Navarro: When I was not able to endure his punishment which I received, I told a lie.
Caleb Followill: You’re the rose.
Navarro: He repeated that four or five times.
Followill: Just drink the water, it’s where you came from. And start rising.
Navarro: And then I vomited the water from my stomach, and the consciousness came back again for me.
Followill: I hope you see me there.
Navarro: No, I could not, and so I, for a time, lost consciousness.
Followill: It’s in the water.
Navarro: I was ordered to lay on a bench and Yuki tied my feet, hands and neck to that bench, lying with my face upward.
Followill: It’s gonna shape them.
Navarro: No sir.
Followill: It’s in the story.
Navarro: Some cloth on my face.
Followill: When the road is carved, up yonder.
Navarro: From my mouth and all openings of my face. Drowning. You could hardly breathe.
Followill: And they cry to see your face.
Navarro: I could not really show anything to Yuki, because I was really lying just to stop the torture. When Yuki could not get anything out of me, he wanted the interpreter to place me down below.
Followill: Never sold yourself away.
Navarro: Like drowning in the water. On my face continuously. We were lying that way. Not so painful.
