about

i wrote this in the year of 1986.... and old friend and band mate brought the name up and i picked up the guitar and the song was still in there and it didnt sound dated other than the amount of time that has passed from the me that penned that to this current incarnate of that person. its nice to know the old me is in there somewhere good or bad.... and also nice that he no longer comes to visit with a freighter truck full of bags o hell.

This song is dedicated to Aaron Kurland

i would like to thank Joe Heavey for playing drums and Peter Richter
for letting me use his amazing painting

lyrics

It's Dark

A death ridden rocker lies face down in his shadow
and when he awakes and crawls into his corner
and his sleepless nights are scarring the arms that he smacks on
and the lies that he tells shoot cold through his veins
somewhere another one is born, destined to his life
with his best smile torn
from the comments of the bastards and his mothers shame

The days roll on and the nights get darker
smiles from the past well there coming back to haunt you
and you lie awake and you toss and you turn
and the smoke from your cigarette makes yer eyes tear and burn
oh mama coyote come howl at the moon
sing this dead fucker a sad ol tune
and if the day breaks like it always does well

Lying down forever now and
yer tombstone is showing off your final frown
and the sweet summer nights and the thinking of love
are all in that place you left up above
if you had a chance given just one chance
would you lift yourself up
