Rael regains consciousness in some musky half-light. He is warmly wrapped in some sort of cocoon. The only sound he can hear is dripping water which appears to be the source of a pale flickering light. He guesses he must be in some sort of cave -- or kooky tomb, or catacomb, or eggshell waiting to drop from the bone of the womb.

Peter Gabriel: "And I wake up in a little while, laid down underground."

Wrapped up in some powdered wool --

I guess I'm losing touch.

Don't tell me I'm dying, 'cos I ain't changed that much.

The only sound is water drops, I wonder where the hell I am, Some kind of jam?

Cuckoo Cocoon have I come to, too soon for you?

Whatever it is, he feels serene, very clean, and content as a well kept dummy with hot water in his tummy, so why worry what it means?

There's nothing I can recognise; this is nowhere that I've known.

With no sign of life at all, I guess that I'm alone,

And I feel so secure that I know this can't be real but I feel good.

Cuckoo cocoon have I come to, too soon for you?

I wonder if I'm a prisoner locked up in some Brooklyn jail

[Is he actually in a straightjacket "locked in some Brooklyn jail?"]

or some sort of Jonah shut up inside the whale. No --

I'm still Rael and I'm stuck in some kind of cave, what could've saved me?

Cuckoo cocoon have I come to, too soon for you?

Resigning himself to the unknown he drifts off into sleep.
