As I lay, bound and confused

Alone I stare into the void of my past

An emptiness to call my own

I'm lost at sea

The door cracks open

A figure looms at the threshold

With a face familiar yet different

Like a nightmare she creeps to me

She speaks to me, my eyes are locked

Do you know who you are?

Do you know what you've become?

These questions that I don't have the answers to tear at my soul

Who am I? What have I become?

She meets my stare, her eyes are raw

Do you not remember me?

You're back to the open world

Back with me, broken free

Woken up...

It can't be

The one who was there in the nightmares

A familiar face

I stood overhead and watched her die

With my knife in hand, I watched as the fear left her mortal eyes

Was it all a dream? My vision I saw now stands right in front of me

How can this be?

Reality or illusion?

Internal conflict

The mind rebels against the eyes perception

An urge deep inside of me to break free of my confinement

To understand the rippling world

To find out who I am and what I've become

Upon yourself Upon myself

The pain you feel The pain I feel

Pale and void Broken and confused

Your minds desire My downward spiral

A fear for what's to come

I must break free of my confinement

I stare into her eyes, escape is my only option

I break free from the binds that bound me

I jump through the barrier of shattered light

To find the answers that I seek

To discover what I have become
