about

Goosebumps, maybe. I'm not sure but it's a haunting song. It was a rush job and I'm not happy about the mix. I started out with a certain sound but it ended up sounding like Tom Petty so I scrapped it quickly! This version almost sounds spaghetti western'ish so I'm cool with that... After a few listens, I realized I ripped off the riff and keyboard sound of a song that I haven't heard in years pretty badly, sorry BT. Oh well. Regarding the lyrics, it's obviously a revenge tune...

lyrics

There's fire in the morning
Fire in the night
Blood by the bedside
Gunshots and moonlight
Well she just had enough
Of his heavy hand
Vengeance insanity, bodies in the sand

Well die body die

Little Billy went missing
A year ago today
All that was left
Was a shoe in the hay
And when they found his takers
And met their demands
Vengeance insanity, bodies in the sand

Well die body die

The working man comes home
Burned out from the day
Comes back to his woman
Happy to see her face
But there's sin on the sheets
The smell of another man
Vengeance insanity, bodies in the sand
