I was dressed in a strange kind of garment

It was a jacket with overlong sleeves

They were tied round my body

So tight that I could not breathe

I heard an echo

Like someone spoke inside my head

I heard voices

My mind could not determine them

I heard whispers

But there was no word that I could understand

It was my prison forever, I knew it

I felt no help from above

These clothes soon ceased to be a straitjacket

The white dress fit just like a glove

I heard an echo

Like someone spoke inside my head

I heard voices

My mind could not determine them

I heard whispers

But there was no word that I could understand

It seemed I was talking to someone

But my mouth didn't utter a word

It seemed I saw people around me

But on my eyes was a blindfold
