The Dreamer's Requiem

[TV Host:]
"So you're saying it's an escape?"

[TV Show Guest:]
"Escape, sure
The escape from present circumstance
Be that personal trauma, social isolation
Or just the general magnitude of life
That's certainly part of it
But for me, the true allure was akin to a homecoming
The importance was in the return
To the comfort of a reality
Without weight and consequence
For without those burdens
You're free to be who you feel you were
And who you think you should be
It's the illusion of true personal freedom
That's as addictive as any need to escape"

[Answering Machine:]
"You have one new message"

[The Lily:]
"Hey, it's me
I just wanted to say that I really
Enjoyed spending time with you today
I hope you had a good time as well
Ehm... I'll be off work next week so
If you'd like to get together and do something
Just let me know, okay?
Anyway, thanks for today
You take care now, alright?
Good night
Bye"
