The train's coming
The train just keeps on coming
Drawing near
Bringing death in its wake
And I'm too tired to fight back
Too tired this time
You have tried to kill me
(Oh, you've tried everything to stop me)
But I've always escaped
As we spiral to the ceiling
Your arms still crushing my neck
I know the pain is coming
(But you could not foresee)
My sheer bloody mindedness
You will not defeat me
You won't get the satisfaction
Your deadly grip is broken
It is you dying there not I
But there you step again,
Fresh and renewed
But I'm still so tired
(Can't face you again, not again)
Running, running, fleeing the fight
Stealing someone's phone
I'm a criminal now, a thief
Tank's relieved voice
Is telling me where I must go
(I've got to get out)
People all around me
Agents closing in on me
Oh
Shit, another, and another
No way to escape
Running, running, still running on
Tank's words ring in my ear
(303, 303)
As I run through a storm of bullets
Up an endless flight of stairs
(303, Room 303)
Oh God I've got to get out
Turning left right left again
Agents there at every turn
(303 the phone at 303)
Trying to hide my terror
As I dodge the bullets
Hearing the directions
The voices from my mind's dark hollows
The shadow we call reality
Diving left-it's 303
Shit
He's standing there again
My nemesis-Smith
He fires his gun
Those vindictive hidden eyes now triumphant
I feel blood from the hole in my chest
He fires again
I stagger back and I don't make a sound
And I can't feel the pain
(Only confusion-I'm so confused)
Again the shots
And now I can't stand up
I slide to the floor-giving up
I'm too tired to continue…I'm falling asleep
But then-a voice
(From the darkness of the place named reality
Strange…it's real there, but I'm dying here
Dying where nothing exists)
She tells me that I'm not dead
She loves me
I'm not dead…I'm awake again
Get up she says
I'm standing, facing them
They turn and shoot
No
I'm sick of being shot at
I'm sick of always losing
I'm sick of having to run
(This isn't real, it's all a programme)
It's a computer-and I'm a hacker
I raise a hand
The bullets slow and then they stop
I pick one up, consider, and drop it
Then each one falls to the ground
The world changes, suddenly
I see
(Not red but black and green)
It's all code
He rushes me-attacks
(And he's so slow)
I stop him with ease, and kick him back
Now it's my turn
I run forth and suddenly
I'm in Smith
Feeling his rage, his hate and fear
But my power is stronger still than his
And my determination and strength explode
He's gone, his programme scattered
The others flee
They're running now, not me)
Her voice again-the exit
Oh yes, 303
I run, pick up the phone,
And there I am
In her arms-she's screaming
Protecting me from the danger
But then it's gone
The Sentinels dead
(But I don't care)
She holds me gently
(All that's real, all that matters now)
Is that I'm here with her
And it's real
And I love her
