I got sunshine in my stomach
Like I just rocked my baby to sleep.
I got sunshine in my stomach
But I cant keep me from creeping sleep,
Sleep, deep in the deep.

Sleep, deep in the deep.
He wakes in a cold sweat with a strong urge to vomit. theres no sign of the cocoon and he can see more of the cave about him. there is much more of the glowing water dripping from the roof and
Ctites and stalagmites are forming and decomposing at an alarming rate all around him.

Rockface moves to press my skin
White liquid turn sour within
Turn fast - turn sour
Turn sweat - turn sour.
Must tell myself that Im not here.
Im drowning in a liquid fear.
Bottled in a strong compression,
My distortion shows obsession
In the cave.
Get me out of this cave!
White liquid turn sour within
Turn fast - turn sour
Turn sweat - turn sour.

As fear and shock register, he assures himself that self-control will provide some security, but this thought is abandoned as the stalactites and stalagmites lock into a fixed position, forming
E whose bars are moving in towards him.
E whose bars are moving in towards him.
If I keep my self-control,
Ill be safe in my soul.
And the childhood belief
Brings a moments relief,
But my cynic soon returns
And the lifeboat burns.
My spirit just never learns.

Stalactites, stalagmites
Shut me in, lock me tight.
Lips are dry, throat is dry.
Feel like burning, stomach churning,
Im dressed up in a white costume
Padding out leftover room.
Body stretching, feel the wretching
In the cage
Get me out of the cage!
Shut me in, lock me tight.
Lips are dry, throat is dry.
Feel like burning, stomach churning,
Im dressed up in a white costume
Padding out leftover room.
Body stretching, feel the wretching
In the cage
Get me out of the cage!
At one moment there is a flash of light and he sees an infinite network of cages all strung together by a ropelike material.
In the glare of a light,
I see a strange kind of sight;
Of cages joined to form a star
Each person cant go very far;
All tied to their things
Theyre netted by their strings,
Free to flutter in memories of their wasted wings.

As the rocky bars press in on raels body, he sees his brother john outside, looking in. johns face is motionless despite screams for help, but in his vacant expression a tear of blood forms an
Ckles down his cheek. then he calmly walks away leaving rael to face the pains which are beginning to sweep through his body.

Outside the cage I see my brother john,
He turns his head so slowly round.
I cry out help! before he can be gone,
And he looks at me without a sound.
And I shout out john please help me!
But he does not even want to try to speak.
Im helpless in my violent rage
And a silent tear of blood dribbles down his cheek,
And I watch him turn away and leave the cage.
My little runaway.

My little runaway.
(raindrops keep failing on my head, they keep falling on my...)
In a trap, feel a strap
Holding still. pinned for kill.
Chances narrow that Ill make it,
In the cushioned straight-jacket.
Just like 22nd street,
They got me by my neck and feet.
Pressures building, cant take more.
My headaches charge, earaches roar.
In this pain
Get me out of this pain.
Holding still. pinned for kill.
Chances narrow that Ill make it,
In the cushioned straight-jacket.
Just like 22nd street,
They got me by my neck and feet.
Pressures building, cant take more.
My headaches charge, earaches roar.
In this pain
Get me out of this pain.
If I could change to liquid,
I could fill the cracks up in the rocks.
I know that I am solid
And I am my own bad luck.

However, just as john walks out of sight, the cage dissolves and rael is left spinning like a top.
Outside john disappears, my cage dissolves,
Without any reason my body revolves.
Without any reason my body revolves.
Keep on turning,
Keep on turning,
Turning around,
Spinning around.
Keep on turning,
Turning around,
Spinning around.

He climbs inside the looking glass
And points at everything he hates
He calls to you hey look out son
That's a gun they're pointing at your pretty face
And points at everything he hates
He calls to you hey look out son
That's a gun they're pointing at your pretty face
And the heads they are rolling
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
Five hundred little women are calling at their hero's door
Yes their hero's working overtime
He's squirming on an empty floor
Yes their hero's working overtime
He's squirming on an empty floor
And the heads they are rolling
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
He's brought the castle on the hill
He's brought it just to knock it down
The local power shout him down
They say he's just an empty headed clown
He's brought it just to knock it down
The local power shout him down
They say he's just an empty headed clown
And the heads they are rolling
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
He's busy building monuments
To hide inside his empty grave
You there can you find some friend
He's looking for some people to save
To hide inside his empty grave
You there can you find some friend
He's looking for some people to save
And the heads they are rolling
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
For the conqueror is on his way
And the justice day is coming
For the conqueror is on his way
And the words of love are killing him
And the conqueror is on his way
And the words of love were lying on an empty floor
Just in the place where the conqueror lay
And the conqueror is on his way
And the words of love were lying on an empty floor
Just in the place where the conqueror lay
