This song came together so fast I didn't even have time to start a thread here. I initially sent Jay my demo with just guitar/drums/lyrics. He made some nice tweaks/changes to my lyrics and arrangement which got it sounding very nice. I got a friend of mine to do the bass and Henry added some killer lead work that fit perfectly. Jay did a great job mixing this, also. Thanks to both of you for making this one of the best and most polished things I've been a part of. Hope everyone else here enjoys too :) Credits And Lyrics Are Below. Thanks.


Jay Lamothe (HDA) - vocals, backup/lead vocals, keys, arrangement, lyrics, mix/master, hand claps
Henry Mittnacht (docmidnite) - lead guitar
Chad Bennett (outside player from old band) - bass
Roger Wilkerson (riggorog) - rhythm guitar, drum programming, arrangement, lyrics





Pieces of you lyin on the ground.
How much longer do you make a sound?
Rivers deep under your head.
Turns revolve inside your bed.

Jump and see how high you go.
Not so sure you really wanna know.
You had a watch but got no time.
You took the chance. You'll do the crime.

You're on the run.
Pick it up, but don't put it away.
You're on the run.
Give it some time, but don't give it away.

Fall and be careful where you land.
Not so clear You shoulda had a plan.
You got no moves. You can't play.
You have no turns. You got no say.

You're on the run.
Make a move, but don't make a sound.
You're on the run.
You're best laid plans are gonna bring you...

Down to the wire with a smoking gun.
You had to do it now you're on the run.
You can't go home, but can't stay here
You're living in shadows.
Now you're living in fear.

You're on the run.
Make a move, but don't make a sound.
You're on the run.
You're best laid plans are gonna put you...

On the run.
Pick it up, but don't put it away.
You're on the run.
Give it some time, but don't give it away.

Roger,


Great song writing, programming and playing again! ;)

I am really quite happy how this turned out.  The song had tons of potential right from the first listen.  For someone that really hasn't been writing lyrics that long and doesn't sing,.. you have a great nack at writing lyrics that fit and don't need much manipulation from the singer.  Thanks for sending it my way.  This is one of my personal favs as well!

Henry:  As per always,... just perfect dude!  Thanks so much!

Thanks Jay! That means a lot coming from a talented person like yourself  :) Thanks for the tips and suggestions on this. You've got a great ear for production!

Henry, I agree that your guitar playing is killer and fit the song perfectly. Thanks for playing!

Proud of this one guys! Thanks  8)

Wow guys....this is a number 1 for sure!

Superb all around - vox, the lead and rhythm guitars, keys, production.

Love the push and pull groove of the track..great bass playing btw.

Jay's touch is evident but the track itself was very strong to begin with as he pointed out.

The length is just right..making the listener want to hit the replay button repeatedly :).

I-podded!!!

Ouch. This one Rocks all the way. What a fine piece of music you guys got here, amazing. All of you should be really proud of this. Really tasty, mates. There's not a single thing I don't like, it's all top.

When I grow older I wanna do something like it.
Live the best you can 'cause you're gonna be dead for a long time.
Respect
