[Spoken Introduction] "She's really going," Hunter watched Jesse join the refugees boarding the transport. "Was sure she'd stay," Spook commented under his breath, "I think she'd fit." The transport drove away like it was on rails. "She's got to make that decision," Jaimey commented,"but she's scared to be on her own." "We're in no hurry," Will said, matter of factly, "supplies are here. Let's get them loaded, then we'll catch some lunch... I have a feeling we'll be seeing that face again." [Verse 1] I was there I really was standing in line ready to sign going back to a normal life then it collapsed saw them walking just like machines Am I going back to the same place that I just escaped from [Chorus] almost made it to normal almost went to a safe place almost threw away the freedom that I crawled to on my hands and broken knees almost made it to normal almost threw away everything and every part of the soul I didn't know I had [Verse 2] Line on paper pen in hand it was my turn to sign away any chance I ever had just another refugee not even a face absorbed in the system I'm thinking again most of them never thought twice [Chorus] almost made it to normal almost went to a safe place almost threw away the freedom that I crawled to on my hands and broken knees almost made it to normal almost threw away everything and every part of the soul I didn't know I had [Verse 3] pen on paper hand won't move Why can't I sign it? am i giving up? Jaime called me fearless Hunter said I was free Spook asked me for help was there something I didn't see? Will the ship still be there? will they welcome me back? [Chorus] almost made it to normal almost went to a safe place almost threw away the freedom that I crawled to on my hands and broken knees almost made it to normal almost threw away everything and every part of the soul I didn't know I had [Outro] [Spoken] The transport came to a stop, Jesse felt relief that the ship hadn't left. There was one lone person near the rear ramp...Will, she remembered his name. "Jesse," he called brightly, "Been expecting you." He reached out with a firm handshake. "Crews gone for Chinese, they'll be right back. I had them order an extra they think is for me." Jesse shook his hand, "One thing I have to know..." "it's Sheldon, but don't tell him I told you...He hates that name."
