    Track: 13 (Japan Bonus Track)
    Video By: Ethelia Jumper
    Lyrics:
    (Take it away!)
    Come call me alive
    Your heart carries mine
    Don't leave me to die
    Alright
    Come call me alive
    Your heart carries mine
    Don't leave me to die
    Alright
    I shouldn't have let them have me, now it's too late for regrets
    Will I ever learn, or am I doomed to burn?
    I keep tasting it, I keep choking
    Take my water, take my oxygen
    They never could help me, I'm left just as empty tonight
    Come call me alive
    Your heart carries mine
    Don't leave me to die
    Alright
    Come call me alive
    Your heart carries mine
    Don't leave me to die
    Alright
    I can't give in to madness
    And let them numb me over
    They wait to weaken me, and take me piece by piece
    I'm poised for the kill, don't dare swallow
    Take my water, take my oxygen
    They never could help me, I'm left just as empty tonight
    I will stop at nothing less than You
    Ruined me, You've ruined me, nothing else moves me
    Take my water, take my oxygen
    They never could help me, I'm left just as empty tonight
    I will stop at nothing less than You
    Ruined me, You've ruined me, nothing else moves me
    Promise me You'll hunt me down
    Or it's torn for now
    I have come unwound without falling
    Promise me You won't back down
    Come call me alive, come call me alive
    Come call me alive, come call me alive
    Come call me alive, alright
    Come call me alive, come call me alive

      Useless Historian i think it's because she was younger, her voice has changed over time but also she was playing about with her technique and vocal placement, and the studio effects are different than their usual sound

    I'm falling and I cannot hold any longer. Am I doomed to burn? Or will my love return? I keep chasing it! My long lost memory. They say it's only a memory but it gives me the hope of morning! I want to get well! They say call me alive! Well you were wrong and now you know. My demons are coming out and you can't kill us. I saw off with her head as I see her walking down the courtyard, Happy hurts. Give me that iodine. My bones are broken and this isn't what I'm supposed to be. I'm caught in they grey of my long lost memory and I'm war with myself now and you're going to watch me fall apart and try to pick up the pieces. Let me burn this theater down along with the rest of the crowd.

    SOOO amazing. Icon For Hire is my favourite band. They're playing in my town in August and I'm going to see them. I'm PUMPED!!!!!
    Just one thing, though. At 2:13, the lyrics are wrong. It's 'I'm poised for the kill,' not 'poisoned for the kill.'

  • @Wind_Cursed
    @Wind_Cursed Před 7 měsíci

    Ah! I finally understand what this song may be talking about! I guess I couldn't fully figure it out until I began relating. It's similar to Icon For Hire's song "Counting on Hearts" from their second (sophmore) album "Icon For Hire", I think. Ex.
    "Come call me alive
    Your heart carries mine"
    "Promise me you'll hunt me down"
    "Promise me you won't back down"
    "Don't leave me to die"
    Except with the darker undertone being more noticeable. Ex.
    "Take my water, take my oxygen"
    "Or it's torn for now"
    "Don't leave me to die"
    Put that together and you see a big part of this song may be talking about wanting to die because you can't take anymore pain or problems yet those you are close to and their love and support and care are holding you back from giving up (at least, that's how I see it). That gives a whole new meaning to "Your heart carries mine"

    • @gunsmith-bv3zt
      @gunsmith-bv3zt Před 7 lety +11

      Bunnylambe from what I've seen there were two EPs before scripted and they contained "call me alive" "fall apart" and one other that I can't remember the name of lol. I think one of them was called the Grey EP, all three songs were pretty great on the EPs also

    • @figuresgate
      @figuresgate Před 7 lety +6

      Yes, but this was also on the Japanese version of Scripted, and that fact is also written in the description. Perhaps it was on an earlier EP, but it was officially released on this album. Sadly, it only happened in Japan; I'm not entirely sure why.

    • @gunsmith-bv3zt
      @gunsmith-bv3zt Před 7 lety +4

      Bunnylambe the whole point of my comment was to state that this song existed before scripted. Which is why it was released as sort of a bonus track on the Japanese version of the album
