Description
This song was written about my best friend and musical partner who passed away about a year ago. Jane's Addiction was the most prominent influence on our music. We listened to them religiously, and hung on to Perry's every word like it was gospel. There's no telling how many people we annoyed by our constant obsession for Jane's music, or how many fans of the band we created. Anyway, this is a song about losing a loved one to an incredibly pointless drug.
Lyrics
So we ride Fleeing with bloodshot eyes 'Cause it's not much better to hide You couldn't let go of your pride So you poisoned yourself and died Made all your loved ones cry At the gates though you won't be denied You're excused, now you can kiss the sky Yeah you know that we let our brains fry Whoa! You're spinning out of control Felt you no longer had a soul The most unbending I've ever known All those good times that you bought and sold You were never one to take it slow In your notes your love really glowed Well I guess I'll see you after the show!
