Story Behind the Song
This song has evolved lke you wouldn't believe. It all started with a guitar riff, The main theme. However, the main riff came from a drum beat that a former drummer had that we liked. Michael Quarto, our first drummer, had a drum solo that had the main beat in it. Due to the SHORT set lengths here in the Los Angeles club scene, he had to cut the drum solo out totally. So, we took the beat and made it into a song. Check it out!
Lyrics
CROSSOVER
Father Xavier was a righteous man, but his heart was sad a blue.
He vanquished demons in the name of God, but he couldn't contrast one truth.
The grass is always greener, the penitence is leaner, on the other side.
Ridin' on a segway, justify my gateway, to the other side.
To the other side.
Mr. Razor slaughter 30 men with a heart of stoney ice.
He saw the preacher with every kill, a black sheep sacrifice.
The grass is always greener, the penetince is leaner, on the other side.
Ridin' on a segway, justify my gateway, to the other side.
I was just a child with tear-stained eyes, But you raped my soul with your holy lies.
When you plant a seed don't take for granted, the insanity that you fuckin' planted.
It was just a matter of time before I cracked.
Sippin' my red wine in a heart attack.
I raise my hands and ask you, "father why?" "My God, am I really gonna die?"
There's a ring of roses on my head.
Thorns stabbin' my brain until I'm dead.
You weren't the first you aren't the last.
I drove the madness from my past.
How does it feel to be the prey?
you're crossin' over on this day.
The grass is always greener, the penetince is leaner.
ON THE OTHER SIDE!
