[Spoken Introduction] He finds the catches and pulls the faceplate off carefully, so that none of the broken pieces fall into the helmet. She looks up at him, her eyes almost closed. "Cavalry's here," she says, "Good timing." She closed her eyes. [Verse 1] Don't you dare die on me! He said and then spoke to the radio. Major, I have a survivor, Injuries severe, beaconing my position, I need a medic. There was silence on the radio and then a loud hiss. a loud noise in the distance caught his attention. [Chorus] I feel like a ghost, in shadows I stand, am I Reading their minds, or sinking in drifting sand. Memories fade, like whispers untold, Haunting echoes in silence, stories unfold. [Verse 2] She didn't really wake, but drifted into consciousness. Where was she? In a bed... brilliant Hunter... but where? As her eyes focused on her surroundings she began recognize them. Not ah-ha, this is...somewhere, but ...am I in hospital? Why am I in a hospital? Then the pain settles in, and she knows why, [Chorus] I feel like a ghost, in shadows I stand, am I Reading their minds, or sinking in drifting sand. Memories fade, like whispers untold, Haunting echoes in silence, stories unfold. [Verse 3] She starts to remember. Bodies. There were bodies. She was one of them. One of the dead. "Amazing she even survived,” she hears clearly. She looks to see who said it, only to find that she's alone. "Well,” again the voice is clear, “monitor says she's waking. Let's see if she's lucid” [Chorus] I feel like a ghost, in shadows I stand, am I Reading their minds, or sinking in drifting sand. Memories fade, like whispers untold, Haunting echoes in silence, stories unfold. [Verse 4] The door opened and in walked a woman in light blue. It was always a light blue wasn't it? She expected white for some reason. “goodness,” the voice continued, though the woman hadn't opened her mouth, “she's alert. Looks like she's seen a ghost” “Good morning,” her voice then came, "I'm doctor Cline. You can call me Anne.” [Chorus] I feel like a ghost, in shadows I stand, am I Reading their minds, or sinking in drifting sand. Memories fade, like whispers untold, Haunting echoes in silence, stories unfold. {Verse 5] “Where is...am..” “Still disoriented.” Was Hunter reading her mind? “You've had a rough go. This is the trauma unit Sutter's Pass. For now just try to relax.” Hunter closed her eyes and tried to remember. The first thing that came to her mind was a man's face. Tired eyes. desperate expression. [Chorus] I feel like a ghost, in shadows I stand, am I Reading their minds, or sinking in drifting sand. Memories fade, like whispers untold, Haunting echoes in silence, stories unfold.
