Scapegod No More

from Slutlips by Catherine Corelli

about

“Scapegod No More” is, in fact, the final wrap up of the entire story. Alice encounters Lily, the confused dissociating kid which is the earlier version of herself. The opening scene is a word by word quote from Mulholland Drive by David Lynch, the narrative unfurls further on and is pretty much self-explanatory.

Writing and producing this last huge track was an enormous challenge because the 12+ minute finale consists of so many bits and pieces that weren’t very easy to put together and balance out properly. t was one of the last tracks that had been arranged and recorded. The very last piece was the bass stretch in the last minutes which was largely influenced by Loco & Jam.

lyrics

SC.12 INT. Lily just woke up and she's crying

Lily: I'm sorry... I...
Mystery Girl: What is it, Lily?
Lily: I thought when I woke up... I thought sleep would do it...
Mystery Girl: What's wrong?
Lily: I don't know who I am...
Mystery Girl: What do you mean? You're Lily
Lily: I'm not. I don't know what my name is... I don't know who I am!
Mystery Girl: This is your purse. Your name must be in your purse. You want to know, don't you?
Lily: I... yes, but... I...
Mystery Girl: Open it!

The track starts with Alice singing:

[verse]
It's been a long long way from hell...

[hook]
You want me blinded
Your bitch in your death charade
Controlled and guided
But you won't rain on my parade!

It's all beneath my skin
It's tightening within
And I don't know where to hide
And what to do...

[hook]
You want me blinded
Your bitch in your death charade
Controlled and guided
But you won't rain on my parade!

The shit is deep in its origin
You're blaming me for your every sin
But I'm taking it with just a grin
Cuz I'm a scapegod under my skin

The shit is deep in its origin
You're blaming me for your every sin
But drop it, man, you will never win
Cuz I am my god under my skin

Danny Torrance hallucinates in the Chalebridge Cradle Mental Hospital. He shouts then
Screams louder and louder "Stop it! Stop it! Please stop it! Please!" reaching the top of his voice

He dies of a heart attack

SC.12.1 INT. Chicago Police Homicide Division. Inspector Trudeau's office. Morning

Curtis: With all due respect, inspector, there has to be something
Trudeau: Unfortunately... despite our highly cooperative locals here, it seems to be a dead end, agent
Curtis: I wouldn't be so sure about that. I've got a feeling the killer will show up again
Trudeau: [thoughtfully] Dropping bodies...
Curtis: Killers always drop bodies. That's what they are
Trudeau: But what if the killer wasn't quite a killer?
Curtis: ...And the vic wasn't quite a vic? [laughs] Interesting theory, inspector. But so far it didn't help on our investigation
Trudeau: Right. But it's a strange world, very strange world
