DISCLAIMER: the riff heard in the verses and outro is originally by my buddy Chris Schugg.

LYRICS:

First time I met her
I looked her straight in the eyes
I tried to break that stare
but I was mesmerized

Her wish was my command
I did what I was told
I guess I let her own me
I must be getting old

You can make me change
should we place a bet
Fluttering around
Catch me with a net
Enfold me in your wings
Keep me as your pet
Alter who I am

So if she does this then I
might be in her debt
She said she’s willing so
I guess that I’m all set

Try to get away

Cleopatra Brimstone is her name
Indulge her when she plays her little games
If you let her win its all the same
She rewrote the rules

i think this song has a kinda "Planet Caravan" type feel to it. From about 3:30-5 min is very cool. Nice work Davey. -EJ

Aw, shame it's so quiet! Great rocking track!

Great rock sound + excellent playing. Sounds like it was recorded quite quietly though or is it my old ears.

Saved!
