BORN TO DIE Michael Taub/Jay Lamothe
(Verse 1)
A raging storm surrounds me,
Sheets of rain come crashing down
I just can't clear away the memories
Of that God forsaken town
(Verse 2)
With a tank full of guilt
My conscience riding shotgun by my side
On these one-way streets of misery
Lies dead-end alibis

(Chorus)
Foot to the floor, my eyes straight ahead
Nowhere left for me to hide
It won't take long before they find out what I did
Yeah, catch me they are gonna try/if they catch me I aint gonna lie/if they catch me I aint' going to cry
Guess I was born to die

(Verse 3)
Steering my way to nowhere
The blood still dripping from my hands
Headlights chase away the shadows
Of another dying man
(Verse 4)
Green lights I tare on through
Red ones I just close my eyes
The reapers chasin in my rearview
and awaits my sweet demise

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
It doesn't matter how far I drive,
This guilt is burnin me up,..It's burnin up,.. It's burning up inside

(Chorus)

We never finish a mix... we simply abandon them.

This was a blast for me to work on!  Sort of out of my normal vocal range,..but its fun to put on a stink face  :( now and then. >:D 8)

Bill,.. is there any style that you can't play??!?!?!  Dude you ripped this bad boy a new one!!  Big big guitars dude.  Here is my favorite spot in this whole song,.. 
check it out,... 2:47,... if that doesn't do it for ya,..check your pulse!
;)

John,.. this just wouldn't have maintained it's energy without your tracks.  Long live double bass and kick ass rolls!!  Awesome. 8)

Next?  Country?  ;D

I like Jay's keys a lot. I'm always amazed by the way different people have different visions of things.
I'd do it certainly different and some other guy the same. That's what makes music such a passionate thing.

Great tune guys.
Live the best you can 'cause you're gonna be dead for a long time.

You guys tear it up on this one. Jay, I'm enjoying your work here.. a bit different from what I am used to hearing, but my God man.. it works so well. Tasteful and well placed keys.. really makes the song sparkle. Bill, I've always admired your writing and your tone.. another one outta the park! And John, as always, your personality adds so much to the songs you collab on, and there are no exceptions. you always add an extra dimension that makes the song sound so polished and professional..

shades of Dream Theater here, I love this!!!  :)

  • Professionalism is an attitude
Yikes!!!!

I inadvertently turned up the volume.... :o I won't be doing that again  ;D

That's awsome playing by all of you guys! I didn't recognise your voice Jay...I had to look twice at the credits.  Top quality Rock 'n' Roll. I'd go and pay to see you guys play this live (I'll stand at the back though.....I'm getting old).

Billy.
