hand through the wall
alarms going off
neighbor at the door
alarms going off
I need to see you now
alarms going off
can you make it tonight
alarms going off
turn the tv up louder
alarms going off
no screams can be heard
alarms going off
men with guns breach the perimeter
alarms going off
my pistol at the ready
alarms going off
awesome! sudden silence
no feeling in my limbs
a needle in my arm
no one recognizable around
no alarms
exhausted I sleep and sleep
this is a safe place
these people want to help me
promise to let me see you soon
