about

Death can be a very scary thing. However, its all a matter of how you look at it. Life is really just one big adventure and death can be just another piece of that. Sometimes adventures are scary and frightening, but its that unknown which really makes it an adventure after all. That said loosing someone you truly care about is one of the most heart wrenching experiences one can have. I have had the pleasure of knowing some incredible people in my life. Some of these people have moved on to the next part of their adventure. As difficult as it may be for me stuck in this moment and this adventure, I wanted to imagine a confrontation with death as a physical being and a friend. Taking time to playfully explore our constant teeter between life and death.

lyrics

They say the road is tough,
But hell I’ve got nothing left to loose.
What fun is beating up someone,
who’s body has forgotten how to bruise.
Hell bent on giving up.
But, I’d sure hate to call you right.
Suck up what little I’ve got left.
And Ill stand up here and fight.

Oh no no no,
I wont give in that easy.
Despite the fact you’ve got me,
Gagged and bound.
You’ve got me cornered but not coward.
So give me your best shot.

So good to see you,
But I hate for it to be on these terms.
By now you think this’d be a lesson,
That I would have learned.
You’re the great taker,
And I fear I’ve got nothing left to retrieve.
Yet somehow you find a part of me,
I’m not quite ready to leave.

Oh no no no,
I wont give in that easy.
Despite the fact you’ve got me,
Gagged and bound.
You’ve got me cornered but not coward.
So give me your best shot.

Our final meeting,
And I guess you’d say this is it.
You got what you wanted,
And I’m the one thats left here with shit.
You stripped me down and left me,
Standing here my bare skin and bones.
I guess this mess you’ve left me,
Is all Ive got left to call my home.

Oh no no no,
I wont give in that easy.
Despite the fact you’ve got me,
Gagged and bound.
You’ve got me cornered but not coward.
So give me your best shot.
Give me your best shot.
