Wake Me

"Wake Me"
Lyrics by B. Torres

Oh what a year this has been I could recount such shocking tales
But I will leave that to my pen, with the ink the truth I hail
I’ve so many tragedies I know I could fill a book
And they’re swimming somewhere underneath, I just need to bait the hook
Now I am ready to lash out and ready to bite back at all the treachery
I’m finally ready to unravel what’s been bubbling underneath

Oh, I’m calling for crimson now
I’m calling for my wounds
But they’re nowhere to be found

Chorus
Have you seen my soul?
Can you rescue me?
Come and wake me
Come and wake me

Have you seen my salt?
Can you bring it back to me?
Come and wake me
Come and wake me

A dose or shot of some catharsis please, it looks calm but I am suffering
‘Cause I can feel the floor beneath me quake and the closets they are rumbling
And my skeletons are kicking and itching and my pistols are fully ripe with rage
Can the banshee please have back his bullets, let him dignify the pain

Oh, what the hell happened to me?
If I can’t purge these detriments
Then what is left for me?

Repeat Chorus

Calliope and Euterpe what’s with this benumbing punishment?
Calliope and Euterpe let me shed what I have been

Repeat Chorus

I wait for the sound…I’m safe in the sound
