Call Me
Echoes of Mistakes: Empress Of's Haunting Reflections
Lyrics
I've gotten used to havin' nothing
I've gotten used to having nothing
I don't know why I keep runnin' like I'm hunted
I don't understand why I keep fleeing as if I'm being chased
I don't remember who made us unwanted
I can't recall who made us feel unwelcome
I don't know if it's you who's shootin' me from the numbness
I'm unsure if it's you causing me to feel emotionally detached
Call me, call me, call me young and useless
Refer to oneself as young and without purpose
But when you call me, call me, call me, who will listen?
Despite calling out, unsure if anyone will heed the call
We watched our youth come and youth go wasted
We witnessed our youthful days pass by fruitlessly
Know that if you fall we'll trade places
Assurance that if you stumble, I'll take your place
I stayed lost and out of focus
I remained lost and lacking direction
Livin' a lie, stretched over the surface
Lived a falsehood, not genuine or authentic
I don't know if it's you who's shootin' me from my madness
Unsure if it's your influence causing my insanity
We keep each other locked in scars, hide from this
We keep each other confined by emotional wounds, hiding from reality
Call me, call me, call me a disaster
Refer to oneself as a catastrophe
But when you call me, call me, call me, who will answer?
Questioning if there will be anyone to respond when called
We watched our youth come, and youth go wasted
Our youth passed by aimlessly and unproductively
Know that if you fall we'll trade places
Pledge to switch places if you falter or face difficulty
I've made mistakes
Admitting to past errors or wrong decisions
Mistakes of a fallen angel
Errors likened to those of a fallen angel
I've made mistakes
Repeated acknowledgment of making mistakes
Mistakes but I'm still stable
Despite mistakes, maintaining stability or composure
Enter through us
Someone enters into our lives but exits without leaving a lasting impact
Just to exit through us
Reiteration of the transient nature of interactions
When they come for us
When faced with adversity or challenges, I promise to remain quiet
I promise, I'll keep silent
Commitment to silence when under pressure or threat
Call me, call me, call me a disaster
Self-identification as a disaster
But when you call me, call me, call me, who will answer?
Querying if there will be anyone willing to respond when called upon
We watched our youth come and youth go wasted
Our youth passed by aimlessly and unproductively
Know that if you fall we'll trade places
Reassurance to switch places if you encounter hardship or failure
