Rewrite me, baby
Late 60s Psychedelic Cabaret Rock at 120 bpm, A surreal and theatrical track that blends the unease of a carnival with the grit of Acid Blues, The instrumentation is distinct for lacking a bass guitar, instead relying on a "Keyboard Bass" (Rhodes Piano Bass) to provide a plucky, rolling low-end, The lead instrument is a "Vintage Transistor Organ" playing staccato, circus-inspired riffs that swell into swirling psychedelic textures, The guitar is clean and fingerpicked with a "Spring Reverb" splash, The vocals are delivered by a "Charismatic Baritone" frontman, shifting from a poetic, drunken croon in the verses to a raw, "Shamanic" wail in the bridge, creating a dark, hypnotic atmosphere.

Lyrics
After hearing a tribute by @philippedufour01 to Jim Morrison, I had the idea of trying to create a The Doors style psychedelic rock track.
Then Hellcat (@james_stuart_baker) put out a challenge to create a psychedelic track for his Discord, perfect timing!!
I'm trying to learn song writing, so wrote the lyrics completely from scratch to try and make something Jim Morrison-esque. I'm interested in how you folks think this turned out.
Enjoy friends!

Intro
Carnival Organ Riff
Verse 1
She's a black stain spreading on the page
Choked back breath of turpentine
She blots out words held against my name
Swimming any vein she finds
Chorus
Rewrite me, baby
Spill your cold black across our script
Rewrite me, baby
Rewrite me, baby
Till I'm just a fiction on your lips
Rewrite me, baby
Rewrite me
Verse 2
My shoes blend into the shag carpet
I can't remember my own face
The mirror is a distant relative
I'm just a typo on her page
Chorus
Rewrite me, baby
Spill your cold black across our script
Rewrite me, baby
Rewrite me, baby
Till I'm just a fiction on your lips
Baby
Rewrite me
Bridge] [Spoken Word building to Shout
Drums heavy on toms, Organ drone
You can fill the room like parchment
You can write all over the ceiling
You can erase the floor beneath us
You can blacken the windows and the doors
You can grieve the story you left us
You can twist the knife until it's right
You can settle for three dollars fifty in change
But my existence is simply your lines!
Outro
Vocals disjointed, Heavy Echo
Rewrite me, baby
Rewrite me Baby...
