about
With token I am speaking to myself. I await a response.
This is a good example of how low rez recording holds the vibe best at the time of inspiration. I prefer this rather than trying to invite the muse back to a recording session.
lyrics
Destined to lose yeah yeah
My demise heaven sent
Gonna let the wheel go yeah yeah
I'm not waiting to die
Gonna ride this show out
My hands are broken
Just losing again
We lose and we win
Better give death his token
That's the way we got here
Fighting the fight
Till the curtain comes down
I am a loser
Just paying my dues
Better give death his token
My hands are broken
Just losing again
We lose and we win
Better give death his token
This hell keeps turning
But I ain't gonna let it go round and round
Better to fall off your throne
Beginning again, 'his intent
Better give death his token
My hands are broken
just losing again
We lose and we win
Better give death his token
