mind.in.a.box - Escape

I awakend in the city to utter darkness. I was running for hours and hours through deserted streets. between all those towers, there was only rain -- only the rain. I went through doors, I scoured the alleys. in the rain I climbed ridges. I walked over bridges, but there was no one there. I felt deaf, although my hearing was fair. but there was only silence. not even the rain... there must be more. I need you to quell my fears. I've felt it before. I need you to shed my tears. the things I adore. I need you to feel my pain. I'm trapped like before. I need you to stop the rain. I've cast myself into a prison, with bonds near impossible to break. I thought my life is built on reason, but now I know I've got to escape. I've depraved myself of all I had, and thought I need to for my own sake. I didn't think I would be so sad, but without you I cannot escape. not even the rain... deep in my heart, I want you to pull me back. I've kept us apart, I want you to fix my wreck. awake with a start, I want you to enter my mind. to re-cast my part, I want you to follow me blind. I've cast myself into a prison, with bonds near impossible to break. I thought my life is built on reason, but now I know I've got to escape. I've depraved myself of all I had, and thought I need to for my own sake. I didn't think I would be so sad, but without you I cannot escape. escape, it's not there! not even the rain...
