[Spoken: Cassette Man]
It's only now that I understand the depth of the depravity of this creature. This monster, that I unwillingly helped to create.
As if what he had already done wasn't enough
We found a new way to desecrate, to humiliate, to destroy.

As if the suffering wasn't enough, the loss of innocence
The loss of everything to so many people.
Small souls trapped in prisons of my making
Now set to new purpose.
And used in ways I never thought imaginable.

He lured them all back, back to a familiar place.
Back with familiar tricks.
He brought them all together.
Are they still, aware? I hope not.

It keeps me awake at night.
I could make myself sleep, but not yet.
Not until I undo what he has done and heal this wound.
A wound first inflicted on me
But then one that I left bleed out to cause all of this.

He set some kind of trap.
I don't know what it was, but he led them there, again.
He overpowered them, again.
And he robbed them of the only thing that they had, again.
I don't know how those tiny breaths of life came to inhabit those machines
But they will never find rest now, not like this.
I have to call them all back, all of them.
Together in one place.
