Story Behind The Song
Faye Davis wrote and recorded "Come With Me" after witnessing a close friend deal with the acceptance of her paranormal abilities and a subsequent demonic possession. It was a foundation-rocking ordeal, one that split the core of everyday life. It was a sad, lonely experience ... Faye was powerless to help. All she could do was try to step into her friend's shoes ... "Come With Me" is the result of that process.
Song Description
There's a definite creepy vibe to "Come With Me", with it's sparse opening of solo voice and eerie piano touches that leads into a deep, vibrational groove. The chorus lifts to a "prettier" place, but the next verse is always there, lurking around the corner ...

Lyrics
my hands are folded in prayer / with so many names to call is anybody up there / my friends all say, they say, "she's crazy" / it's only when they're around that my mind disobeys me / (bridge & chorus:) I hear voices on the wind, see shadows creeping in / they don't know my name but they say / come with me they say / come with me they say / come with me this way / come with me they say / now I stand on the step of the cathedral / it's full of incense, nonsense, and holy people / and my friends all say, they say, "look at her searching" / it's only when they're around can they see how much I'm hurting / (bridge and chorus)/ call the doctor / looking for a cure / all I know is he don't know / and I don't want this anymore / no more voices on the wind / no shadows creeping in / they don't know my name, but they say / (chorus) /.
