“Haley’s Letter”
Copyright 2009
Engineered and Co-Produced by Frans Mernick.
Produced, music & performed by James Manzello.
Lyrics by Sandy Lo.
Look into her sad eyes
Her life’s spinning round
She can’t see the beauty that I found
Luckily I wrote it down
Chorus:
And this is my letter
Haley, I’ll miss you when you’re gone
So please take my letter
And remember me
Verse 2:
She fainted in my arms
There was no one else around
My world stood still, I couldn’t hear a sound
I kissed her as the moon looked down
Chorus:
And this is my letter
Haley, I miss you now you’re gone
So please take my letter
And remember me
Bridge:
If you can’t sleep at night
It’ll be all right
Just look out to the sky
And forget our goodbye
Chorus:
And hold onto this letter
Haley, I miss you now you’re gone
So please keep my letter
And remember me, remember me
Tortured is the fictional band from Sandy Lo’s novel “Dream Catchers”. Always inspired by music, Sandy listened to alternative/rock while writing “Dream Catchers”, especially one of her favorite bands, 30 Seconds To Mars, who she cites as Tortured’s main influence. “Haley’s Letter” is the song featured in “Dream Catchers” that was written by Sandy along with James Manzello, whom also co-produced the track with Frans Mernick as well as performs it under the Tortured band name. A full-length album is in the works, hopefully to coincide with the release of Dream Catchers’ sequel, “Breaking The Moon”. The album will also be of the same title. Currently, “Haley’s Letter” is available to purchase on iTunes and other major online retailers. Sandy thought it would be fun to keep the characters alive by giving their music a real sound and allowing their personalities to come out on Tortured’s Twitter page.
