I can hear them, but I'm not afraid.
They tell me of what is beyond the wall that surrounds us,
Of life, everlasting immortal life.
I can hear other voices in there, crying for help,
but the other voices are stronger.
Eternal Immortal Life.
That is the strongest whisper that calls to me,
taunting me, telling me I'm mortal,
I live in a mortal body.
I want to go through the window and join them,
whisper with them,
live forever,
and ever.
Some mornings I wake up and wonder where I am,
like today.
I don't know who is here with me,
but she keeps stopping me,
stopping me from joining the voices.
She has a light in her hand,
its bright, it frightens me.
She calls me "Cort - nee"
but that's not who I am,
I,
I don't know who I am.
I want to be with the voices,
I want to live forever.
I don't know of any other life
than the one I want to live
with the voices...
