I wrote this while working on a LARP called Resonance with Alleged Entertainment.  We ended up including the song in the game.

Verse 1 I wake up in an unfamiliar bed The dark confusion clearing from my head And I feel that you are near me And I hope, hope you won't fear me Cause I know that you can hear me In your mind

Verse 2 You stand before me hanging by a thread By every right I think I should be dead Who are you? I don't remember Who am I? I don't remember Where are we? I don't remember Anything

Chorus Oh, this resonance between us Searing from your eyes into my brain Our connection that I'm feeling The one thing that protects me from the pain

Verse 3 And as I stare into your eyes I see The distant flicker of a memory Then I hear the turning of keys and Then I fall down on my knees and Then I know we both know the reason Why we're here

Chorus

Bridge When we open up the door and stare out, blinded by the sun Will we revel in our triumph or atone for what we've done? When our vision clears will you recall the world that I once knew Or is it all some fairy tale to you?

Verse 4 My life, my friends, my work, my family Becoming nothing now but history Won't resist when they come to kill me For the dark future that will be For I know that I am guilty Of it all

Chorus (last line 2x)
