Rescue Me - Angie Handley and Steve Lintern

Sorry to just read that this site will be disappearing at the end of the month.

Here is another collaboration with a great singer, lucky for me. This is a very personal pharma injury story, which we tried to couch in a Seventies (maybe Eighties, possibly Sixties!) rock singalong. To get the story across. Hope you like it.

RESCUE ME

Alone at last

The pain comes fast

Shaking and dizzy

And now I'm floored

In the emergency ward

Experts surrounding me

I'm trying to stay pure

Dying from the cure

Waking in agony

Locked up in a tower

I'm fading by the hour

Yearning for some company

Will someone come and rescue me?

A nervous game

A surge again

Another emergency

I'm playing symptom bingo

Now I'm in a window

Broken heart surgery

I'm in a wave

I'm in a rage

Falling, for eternity

The terrors not forgotten

When I hit the bottom

It's the only end I can see

Will someone come and rescue me?

Will someone come and rescue me?

Teeth that grind

A revving mind

High anxiety

Weird sensations

Hallucinations

Don't sound like a good deal to me

Did I mention the torture, the tension?

It's inhumane

They call me insane

Gaslight sensitivity

Will someone come and rescue me?

Will someone come and rescue me?

Oh I'm taking a chance

Just one more romance

There's always something left for me?

I can no longer hide

The answers inside

The key to my recovery

I'm the one who's gonna rescue me

I'm the one who's gonna rescue me

I'm the one.

    I liked the emotional state of the song and the hospital/emergency ward idea as a metaphor for a kind of emotional or psychological breakdown tied to heartbreak. It really captures that crisis-like headspace.

    A couple of the more abstract lines threw me a bit, but the hook works well and overall it’s a very listenable track.

    @Thekesslerboy Great song enjoyed it very much, innovative style of writing which is very refreshing. I think you got what you were aiming for, Pleasure to listen to, well done.
