        PART ONE: Darkness

        PART TWO: Blame
        Turn away.
        Turn your face away.
        Shut the door.
        Don't let them in.

        PART THREE: Alone
        I can’t sleep
        Awake awake awake
        All these thoughts
        All this time
        Open the curtains

        Am I alone?
        Where are you?

        PART FOUR: Rescue
