Part 1: Someone Like Him I never wanted to become someone like him. So secure, content to live each day just like the last. I was sure I knew that this was not for me, and I wanted so much more far beyond what I could see. So I swore that I'd never be someone like him! So many years have passed since I proclaimed my independence, my mission, my aim, and my vision so secure. Content to live each day like it's my last. It's wonderful to know that I could be something more than what I dreamed, far beyond what I could see. Still I swear that I'm missing out this time. As far as I could tell there’s nothing more I need, but still I ask myself could this be everything? Then all I swore that I would never be was now, so suddenly, the only thing I wanted to become, to be someone just like him. Part 2: Medicate (Awakening) A Doctor sitting next to me, he asks me how I feel, not sure I understand his questioning. He says I've been away a while but thinks he has cured me from a state of catatonic sleep. For 30 years where have I been? Eyes open but not getting through to me. Medicate me, infiltrate me, side effects appear as my conscience slips away. Medicate me, science failing, conscience fading fast, can't you stop what's happening? A higher dosage he prescribes but there's no guarantee, I feel it starting to take over me. I tell him not to be ashamed, there's no one who's to blame. A second shot, a brief awakening. I feel the relapse can't break free. Eyes open but not getting through to me. Medicate me, infiltrate me, side effects appear as my conscience slips away. Medicate me, science failing, conscience fading fast, can't you stop what's happening?
