"is there a way out?
of course not, sweet child.

the dead can't leave now
there's too much at risk –
up above,
they have left us to rot.

rotten is what you should be now, dear
after all you're much crazier
than you used to be.

did anyone tell you that?
did no one mention that?
oh my...

look at you now,
more alive than ever:
no?

that's what happens here,
i'm afraid.
everybody goes a little
insane."
