about

I've been tinkering with this song for a long time, lyrically. How do I express what I'd do for you? How far would I go and how far can I go? What limits are in us? I'm quite proud of the cello parts, which are my first. This was John's first time tracking an upright bass, so lots of firsts in this tune.

lyrics

I once knew a man named Angel
he could barely place my face
then I met a man named Evil
he knew everything about me
I made a deal with the devil
it was the least I could do
but I'll be smiling while I burn
cause I got one day with you

but I ran, ran away screaming
from the lies and head full of demons
I'll get by, sleeping on couches
or at least I'll try

I spend most of my life dreaming
of what could be
I've lived off of
cigarettes and coffee
and hopes of you and me
but something always finds me
ready to go at high speeds

so I ran, ran away screaming
from the lies and head full of demons
I'll get by, sleeping on couches
or at least I'll try
