From a swarm of black clouds falls a stripe of light
It's the only sign that a dawn has come
Unpleasant struggle to wake up
And learn I'm nowhere that my mind recalls

Rushed memories mixed with pain
While staring at this wasteland
Looking at my scars
The word REPLICA on my arm

Faint flashlights draw pillars towards the sky
And the silence is broken by dog barks
Not knowing who I am or which side to stand
I run into the wilderness of this seemingly dead city in total darkness

Almost everything's been burnt to the ground
Personal belongings lying all around
No trace of the living or the dead
All was left behind, no one seemed prepared

Glaring memories comes to mind
Rambling, blurred and unaligned
I see a woman's face
Whispering: "Soon you’ll be awake"

Then a noise on my rear triggers my instincts of fear
Bursting into gun firing creeping near
Helpless and cornered I try to reach the ground and crawl
Waiting for a bitter end I feel a grabbing hand
Is it a friend?

"Lay down if you wanna stay alive"
A voice said with responding fire
I was dragged underneath, the defense lines of this siege
An old building
Ravaged and battered by this unknown war,
don't know what role I'm to perform
Was I being chased or just unlucky and misplaced?

Should I rely upon
The idea that I'm not really on my own?
At least I'm not cold dead yet
Like the floor on which I crawl
Of this building's entrance hall
I could only hear someone scream:
"Hurry up, come inside!
Gotta come this way, we don't have much time
Run underground as we hold the defense lines!"
