I posted this song about three years ago and took it down after six reviews. I was very self-conscious of my singing back then (still am) and I just felt the need to take it down. I also didn't explain the song at the time. When I wrote it, I started by trying to imagine the deaths of Jimmy from Lou Reed's Berlin and William Lee from Naked Lunch. Then it became a vampire's realization that he is inexplicably dying. He's talking to his bride as he fades. Anyway, I'm a big fan of Halloween, way more than Christmas, so here's a Halloween song.

I wrote the song with six loops: three from BIAB, three from Big Fish. I sang. There are some proximity issues, I realize that and it's too late to fix it.

Lyrics:

And when the end is near
All my movements cease
Tell me that you still care
My demise you'll ease

When all the sanguine's gone
From my withered veins
Tell me that you'll be here
Take the needed pains

And don't try to follow me
To the place I go
I'll be among the worms
Not a pretty show

Just say that you love me
Please say that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Just say it

I've had a marvelous exit
Time now to pay the cost
You've been a boon companion
No fret of loss

Wish it would go much quicker
I'm so averse to pain
All of the reverie's left
Such a filthy stain

And if there's a world awaiting
Some reward I don't deserve
Keep a bit of love for me
In good preserve

Just tell me that you love me
Please tell me that you love me
Say that you love me
Just say it
