VANISHED IN PLAIN SIGHT: The Shocking Truth About Unclaimed Bodies

1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,520
No tears for black girls when
they disappear.

2
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:12,040
No tears for black girls like
they were never here.

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,600
But we remember.
We'll speak their names.

4
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,880
Welcome back to No Tears for
Black Girls.

5
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:26,680
I'm your host, Samantha Paul.
Today we're diving deep into a

6
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,880
story that will shake you to
your core.

7
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,000
A story about a 51 year old
black mother named Tanya Walker

8
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,320
who vanished without a trace in
Sacramento, CA.

9
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:42,360
For seven agonizing months, her
family searched everywhere.

10
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,440
They dug through ditches,
crawled through drains, followed

11
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,520
every lead, no matter how
heartbreaking.

12
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,960
But Tanya wasn't missing.
She was dead.

13
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,720
And her body was sitting in a
warehouse morgue while her

14
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,160
family suffered, while
detectives wasted resources,

15
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,640
while scammers preyed on their
desperation with fake ransom

16
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,760
demands.
This isn't just about one

17
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,000
family's nightmare.
This is about a pattern, a

18
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,880
system, and the uncomfortable
questions we need to ask about

19
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,880
what happens to black bodies
when they die in America's

20
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:20,240
hospitals.
November 2nd, 2023.

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:26,120
Tanya Walker, the oldest of 13
children, stops returning calls

22
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,720
from her family at 51.
She was a mother of four, 2

23
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,040
girls, 2 boys.
She'd been struggling with

24
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,000
homelessness, but she always
stayed in touch.

25
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,760
Always.
Her sister Kalia tells us she's

26
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,840
never missed a holiday.
She was there every holiday.

27
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,520
So when Thanksgiving came and
Tanya didn't show up, they knew

28
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,280
something was really, really
wrong.

29
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,480
November 10th, 8 days after
Tanya's last contact, the family

30
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,040
reports her missing to
Sacramento County Sheriff's

31
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,720
Office.
What they didn't know was that

32
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,680
Tanya had already been dead for
eight days.

33
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,840
The search begins.
Flyers distributed across

34
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,080
Sacramento, social media
campaigns on TikTok, Facebook,

35
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:17,440
every platform they could find.
The family offers a $3500

36
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,200
reward, which immediately
attracts predators.

37
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:25,320
Scammers send manipulated photos
of Tanya in body bags demanding

38
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,920
Cash App payments.
One message claims she's being

39
00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:32,120
held for ransom.
Her sister Delee remembers the

40
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,480
false leads.
She's over here, she's buried

41
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,520
over there.
They overdosed her or they beat

42
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,360
her up real bad and put her
somewhere.

43
00:02:40,920 --> 00:02:43,200
We kept saying here's another
site.

44
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,920
We'd show them the text or the
e-mail and they'd meet us out

45
00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:49,200
there.
We would dig it up and she

46
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,640
wouldn't be there.
For seven months, this family

47
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:55,200
lived in hell.
Not knowing is the hardest

48
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,080
thing, they said, but the truth
was even worse.

49
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:05,120
May 31st, 2024, seven months
after Tanya disappeared, a

50
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,240
Sacramento County detective
calls the family with news that

51
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,080
should have brought relief.
They found her, but relief

52
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:16,000
quickly turned to horror.
Tanya Walker had died on

53
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,440
November 2nd, 2023, the exact
day she stopped answering calls

54
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,120
at Dignity Health's Mercy
General Hospital.

55
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,320
She suffered cardiac arrest,
dying from hypothermia and

56
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,320
hypotension.
The hospital knew she was dead.

57
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,440
They had her body, but they
never issued a death certificate

58
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,640
until April 15th, 2024, five
months later.

59
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,720
They never called her family.
Instead, they stored her body at

60
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,080
an off site morgue called
Cremations Only, officially

61
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,480
known as Mortuary Support
Services of Northern California,

62
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,080
owned by Michael Robert Lofton.
When Tanya's sisters finally

63
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,920
arrived to identify her body,
they were warned not to look.

64
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,280
The morgue staff tried to
convince them not to go in, but

65
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,520
after seven months of searching,
they weren't leaving without

66
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,360
seeing their sister.
What they found will haunt them

67
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,040
forever.
Daley describes the scene.

68
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,399
We identified her through the
tattoo on her arm.

69
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,440
Her body was in the worst
condition you can imagine.

70
00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:24,440
Her face looked like someone put
battery acid all on her face.

71
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:29,040
But it gets worse.
According to the lawsuit filed

72
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,520
by the family, Tanya's eyes and
skin had been surgically

73
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,200
removed.
The hospital had allegedly

74
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,480
harvested her organs without
consent, even though she was

75
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,360
never registered as an organ
donor.

76
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,640
Kalia asked the question that
cuts to the heart of this case.

77
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,560
They said she died of
hypothermia.

78
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,000
Then why did she look like she'd
been eaten by wolves?

79
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,520
Tanya Walker wasn't alone.
As investigators dug deeper, a

80
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,880
horrifying pattern emerged at
Dignity Health hospitals across

81
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:04,000
Sacramento.
Jesse Peterson, 31 years old,

82
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,800
died April 2023 at Mercy San
Juan Medical Center.

83
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,640
Her family was told she left
against medical advice.

84
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,920
They searched for a year before
learning she'd been dead the

85
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,120
entire time, her body so
decomposed that an open casket

86
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,760
funeral was impossible.
Michael Gray died of an overdose

87
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,440
in 2021 at Mercy San Juan
Hospital claimed they called the

88
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,360
wrong number to notify his
mother.

89
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,680
She searched for a month before
finding his decomposed remains.

90
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,960
California Department of Public
Health investigations revealed

91
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,200
the scope 61 bodies stored at
the off site morgue without

92
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,120
proper documentation.
Some bodies stored for one to

93
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,320
two years without death
certificates.

94
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,080
The hospital president told
regulators we assume the remains

95
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,160
being stored did not have
families.

96
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,800
Let that sink in.
They assumed Black and brown

97
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,720
bodies didn't have families who
cared.

98
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,040
On TikTok and across social
media, Black communities have

99
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,880
been connecting dots that
mainstream media ignores.

100
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,720
The hashtags tell the story.
Tanya Walker, Jesse Peterson.

101
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,320
Black bodies matter.
TikTok users are asking the hard

102
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,920
questions.
Why are so many missing Black

103
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,120
people found dead with organs
removed?

104
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,040
Why do these cases follow
similar patterns?

105
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,200
Why is this happening
disproportionately to Black and

106
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,400
brown bodies?
Some theories circulating online

107
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,600
include the organ harvesting
theory that hospitals are

108
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,480
deliberately targeting
vulnerable black patients,

109
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:44,000
homeless, uninsured, estranged
from family for organ harvesting

110
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000
operations.
The fact that Tanya's organs

111
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,960
were removed despite her never
consenting to donation fuels

112
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,560
this theory.
The medical racism theory that

113
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,480
this represents a continuation
of historical medical

114
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,760
experimentation on black bodies
from the Tuskegee experiments to

115
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,840
Henrietta Lacks now evolved into
modern organ trafficking.

116
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,840
The disposal theory that
hospitals are treating black

117
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,880
bodies as disposable, assuming
no one will come looking, no one

118
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,280
will ask questions, no one will
demand accountability.

119
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,400
The most chilling theory gaining
traction is the missing persons

120
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,240
pipeline, the idea that
vulnerable Black people are

121
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,080
being targeted because their
disappearances won't generate

122
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,520
media attention or intensive
police investigations.

123
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,200
To understand why these
conspiracy theories resonate so

124
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:42,040
deeply in Black communities, we
need to examine history. 1968

125
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:48,200
Richmond, VA Bruce Tucker, a 54
year old black laborer, falls

126
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,640
and suffers A fatal head injury.
The next day his heart is

127
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,760
transplanted into a white
business executive without

128
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,440
family consent.
The family only learns about it

129
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:05,240
when the Funeral Home tells them
the body is missing organs. 1932

130
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:11,520
to 1972, Tuskegee, Alabama. the
US government conducts a 40 year

131
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,480
study withholding syphilis
treatment from black men,

132
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:21,560
telling them they have bad
blood. 1951 Baltimore Henrietta

133
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,760
Lacks cells are harvested
without consent and used for

134
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,520
decades of medical research,
generating billions in profits

135
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,480
while her family remains in
poverty.

136
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,640
Present day studies show black
patients receive less pain

137
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,520
medication, are less likely to
be referred to specialists, and

138
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,679
face higher maternal mortality
rates.

139
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,320
Medical students still believe
myths about Black people having

140
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,800
thicker skin or higher pain
tolerance.

141
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,840
This is an ancient history.
This is the foundation of

142
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,480
medical mistrust.
That makes cases like Tanya

143
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,800
Walker's feel like a
continuation, not an aberration.

144
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,960
Here's what's telling.
I searched extensively for

145
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,240
similar cases involving white
patients.

146
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,240
While medical errors and delayed
death certificates occur across

147
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,680
all demographics, the pattern we
see in Sacramento?

148
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,400
Multiple families, Extended
searches, decomposed bodies,

149
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,440
missing organs.
This pattern is overwhelmingly

150
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,320
affecting Black and brown
families.

151
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,320
When white people go missing, we
get Amber alerts, national media

152
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,800
coverage, and massive search
efforts.

153
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:33,360
When white patients die in
hospitals, families are notified

154
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,400
immediately, death certificates
are processed on time, and

155
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,360
bodies are treated with dignity.
The contrast is stark and

156
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,840
undeniable.
This isn't about individual bad

157
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,360
actors.
This is about systemic

158
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,560
devaluation of Black lives, even
in death.

159
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:54,760
While we fight for systemic
change, our community needs to

160
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,040
protect itself.
Here's what TikTok sleuths and

161
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,880
community advocates are
recommending.

162
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:05,280
Emergency contact redundancy.
Don't rely on one emergency

163
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,240
contact.
Give hospitals multiple family

164
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,200
members information.
Make sure they have current

165
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,040
phone numbers.
Hospital advocacy.

166
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,880
Never let a family member go to
the hospital alone.

167
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,320
If possible, have someone
present who can ask questions

168
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,240
and demand answers.
Documentation Keep records of

169
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,760
hospital visits.
Get copies of all medical

170
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,280
documents.
Take photos if necessary.

171
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,880
Legal preparation.
Consider advance directives that

172
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,120
explicitly state your wishes
about organ donation and body

173
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,520
handling.
Community Networks Create group

174
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,680
chats and social media networks
to quickly spread word when

175
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:47,120
someone goes missing.
Don't wait for police, start

176
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,280
searching immediately.
Media pressure Use social media

177
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,560
to amplify missing persons
cases.

178
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,720
Tag local news, create hashtags,
make noise.

179
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,120
The squeaky wheel gets
attention.

180
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,360
Know your rights.
Families have the right to see

181
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,800
bodies, to get death
certificates within 8 days, to

182
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,480
be notified immediately of
death.

183
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,520
Don't let hospitals tell you
otherwise.

184
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,680
After examining all the
evidence, social media theories

185
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,800
and expert analysis, what
scenario makes the most sense?

186
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,240
The TikTok sleuths are on to
something.

187
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,120
But it's not a grand conspiracy.
It's something more insidious,

188
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,320
systematic negligence rooted in
racial bias.

189
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,280
Here's what likely happened.
Dignity Health hospitals

190
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,520
developed a culture where Black
and brown patients were seen as

191
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,480
less important.
When these patients died, staff

192
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,080
assumed no one would come
looking.

193
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,120
They cut corners on death
certificates, delayed family

194
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,080
notifications and warehoused
bodies at off site morgues.

195
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,720
The organ harvesting appears
opportunistic rather than

196
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,960
planned, taking advantage of
bodies they assumed were

197
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,480
unclaimed to meet organ donation
quotas or research needs.

198
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,240
This isn't a conspiracy.
It's worse.

199
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,360
It's a system so steeped in
racial bias that Black Death

200
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,160
becomes invisible, Black
families become irrelevant, and

201
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:18,240
Black bodies become commodities.
Despite multiple lawsuits, media

202
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,840
investigations and state health
department findings, Dignity

203
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,800
Health continues operating with
minimal consequences.

204
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,040
No executives have been fired.
No criminal charges have been

205
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,000
filed.
The Sacramento County DA may be

206
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,240
investigating, but they won't
confirm it.

207
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,440
The California Department of
Public Health has known about

208
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,720
these issues since 2022 but has
taken no enforcement action.

209
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,960
They keep declaring the
hospitals in compliance after

210
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,760
each violation.
This is how institutional racism

211
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:53,320
works in 2024, Not through
burning crosses or explicit

212
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,000
hatred, but through bureaucratic
indifference, regulatory

213
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,920
capture, and the quiet
assumption that Black lives and

214
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:05,760
Black deaths simply matter less.
Tanya Walker was more than a

215
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,120
victim.
She was a daughter, sister,

216
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,640
mother.
She was loved.

217
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,440
She mattered.
Her family's seven month

218
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,280
nightmare should never have
happened.

219
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,000
But her story has awakened
something.

220
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,560
Black communities across social
media are paying attention,

221
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,040
asking questions, demanding
answers.

222
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,000
The hashtag Justice for Tanya is
spreading.

223
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:32,480
Other families are coming
forward with similar stories.

224
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,720
Tanya's sisters, Daley and
Kalia, are fighting for change.

225
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,240
Their lawsuit isn't just about
money.

226
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,920
It's about accountability.
It's about ensuring no other

227
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:44,840
family endures what they
endured.

228
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,720
As Daley said, that's all I
would hope for is change.

229
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,960
This case embodies everything
our podcast stands for.

230
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,560
Black women and their families
deserve dignity in life and

231
00:13:57,560 --> 00:14:00,560
death.
They deserve to be seen, heard,

232
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,280
and valued.
They deserve justice.

233
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,240
The system failed Tanya Walker
catastrophically, but her story

234
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,200
is now a rallying cry, a
reminder that we must protect

235
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,000
each other because the system
won't protect us.

236
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,600
To Tanya's family, we see you,
we hear you.

237
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,160
Your sister's life mattered and
her death will not be in vain.

238
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:31,120
To our listeners, stay vigilant,
stay connected, keep asking

239
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,520
questions, keep demanding
answers, because when we stop

240
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,480
caring about each other, when we
stop fighting for each other,

241
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:43,160
that's when they win.
Up next is the latest song Safe

242
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,480
Place by our music group No
Tears for Black Girls, featuring

243
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,160
Jada Truth.
Stay loved, stay blessed and

244
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,800
stay safe.
Thank you for listening to No

245
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,400
Tears for Black Girls.
This is Samantha Paul.

246
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,880
Everybody needs a safe place,
y'all feel me?

247
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:24,840
Oh, let's just through the rain.
We got room for your pain.

248
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:33,160
Oh, yo-yo, come inside.
No need to hide.

249
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,240
Found family.
Love remain.

250
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,640
Yo.
Where my safe place at?

251
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,240
Right here.
Don't you let go.

252
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,040
Come back.
I'm near.

253
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,640
When the world go cold, You know
I care.

254
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:30,840
One of your own ones.
A place in the song.

255
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,440
No more feeling alone.
The battle bounce with me.

256
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,280
Lift up the broken and lost
bounce.

257
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,120
Raise the by the rhythm.
No matter the cost, no matter

258
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,720
what, let the sun paint your
face and leave your trouble at

259
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,520
the door.
Every heartbreak has a place.

260
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:55,160
Got a place right here.
That's what we'd for Where my

261
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,840
safe place right here.
Don't you let go, come back.

262
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:01,560
I'm near.
When the world goes cold.

263
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,200
You know I care.
Everybody needs us.

264
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,480
Say right here.
Don't you let go.

265
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,200
Come back.
I'm near.

266
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,760
When the world goes cold.
You know I care.

267
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:19,079
Everybody needs.
I was lost outside Now these

268
00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:21,520
doors swing wide.
Sanctuary in the song.

269
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,920
Watch the darkness divide.
Watch her voices that doubt.

270
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,400
Let's go.
Let's go.

271
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,520
Go, go.
Go where?

272
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,040
My safe place Right here.
Don't you let go.

273
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:05,800
Come back.
I'm near.

274
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,400
When the world go cold.
You know I can't.

275
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,040
Everybody needs a safe place
right here.

276
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,240
Don't you let go.
Come back.

277
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,160
I'm near.
When the world go cold.

278
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,720
You know I can't.
Everybody needs a safe place.
