Stalkers Lyrics
(we know who it is we want)
(we have a collective mind)
(we don't miss a single step)
(we're always right behind)
(we know we serve someone else)
(we have swallowed our pride)
(we march to this tune of loss)
(we take this in our stride)
(we are the stalkers)
(we are your shadow)
It's me.
I really hope you will be able to hear this,
and I hope it won't take too long.
I feel completely lost, and I know there is
something really strange going on.
I've been like this far too long.
It's getting worse and worse.
I feel like I haven't slept in ages.
I can feel them always right behind,
casting a shadow on my mind,
but I know I have to hang on.
(we know who it is we want)
(we have a collective mind)
(we don't miss a single step)
(we're always right behind)
(we know we serve someone else)
(we have swallowed our pride)
(we march to this tune of loss)
(we take this in our stride)
(we are the stalkers)
(we are your shadow)
Now all my hope is that you're really there,
and my mind has almost turned insane.
Can you hear this?
Are you out there?
Please help me turn back the pages.
I want to go back from where I came.
(we are your stalkers)
(we are your shadow)
How much time has passed?
I can feel they're almost here.
Can you hear me?
Where have you gone?
I can feel my thoughts dying out,
so my last thought is just your name,
and it is all that will remain.
(we know who it is we want)
(we have a collective mind)
(we don't miss a single step)
(we're always right behind)
(we know we serve someone else)
(we have swallowed our pride)
(we march to this tune of loss)
(we take this in our stride)
I can hear them coming.
I will be one of them...
I believe that this song is one of the few not from Agent Black's POV, instead being about a woman being tracked down by a sector of the Agency known as the Stalkers as they slowly transform her into one of them, heavy focus on the mental changes as she is integrated into the Hivemind (some fans even suggest a physical transformation packed in with the assimilation, involving the target turning male, like a Beneficial Tailor comic showed) while she cries out for an unknown person interpreted by The Beneficial Tailor as her lover
It could also be seen as an alternate fate for Black if the mindwipe was fully successful and White decided to repurpose him as a Stalker drone
