Story behind the song
david - this is the "david only" version, i recently rewrote some of the lyrics, so i recorded both parts on my own, originally dustin and i switch off, ala, he sings the first half of the verse and i sing the second ex:
dustin - "in a colored coded coffin..."
david - "and everything i said was...."
both musically and lyrically i am quite happy with this song, i'm fairly sure it can make it onto the album without any real changes made to it.
Ryan ~ this song is a rocker. i think the vocals lack balls... primarily during "and everything i said was...." there is just a power missing.... i am playing hard on a crash and i think the vocals should match the intensity. the 3 part harmony at the end makes my pants wet.
Dustin-This song is balls out and I love it. It is solid and well written. I don't think many changes should be made to this song. I like the new lyrics and the harmony at the end is sweet. The realy high part in the verse is a pain in the ass isn't it David?
Lyrics
in a colored coded coffin they will bury me tonight though i try i don't put up a fight a fire set to burn away, the day is lost in flame (we scream) i can't think of one thing left to say and everything i read was so damn precious have i become the martyr of just a slave to fashion and i don't think that i will ever regret this looking back on a life lacked passion you can no longer stay rise up live for today why can't we all just get away a small glimpse of our future is just stringing up along, we'll curl up tight and sing our dead end songs, but we will slowly kill these dreams with alcohol and magazines that tell us what to feel and what to be and every thing i said was so pretentious i'm sorry if you thought that these words meant anything there's just so much time that was offered to us but i'll take what the next day will bring and all the words or dead or set against us a verse turned into a curse it's just a horrid nightmare so i don't think that i can listen to you is this a cross road i will see you there live today don't fall away
