DEAD AHEAD

sometimes
by losing a battle
you find a way, to win the war

LISTEN TO ONE LIFE  >>>  HERE 

carry the battle to them  
don't let them bring it to you  
put them on the defensive 
and don't ever apologize

for anything

Harry S Truman

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH
the story behind dead ahead

it's a POV thing
corn fields?  right
long story
no time

alpha bravo charlie
whisky delta tango
we are ready to fight for our right
to believe in our country ... and

there's nothing in this manual
that says I have to like you
you look different
so, na ... so you?
gotta go

battle lines drawn - shadowy shapes shifting
enemy in my sights ... dead ahead
a blast from the past - then the future
collateral damage imminent
how does it feel
to be a casualty

nope, that doesn't belong to you
it belongs to us

putting these sounds together
something different
finding this game stuff 
playing with it
with the music
rearranging 

kinda works - fun to watch
layering in more synths and voices
on the final pass before merging
the final audio mix from logic 
to the fine cut/picture edit
in final cut

I don't get war, never did
for some (many), it's just what is
never questioning why
we humans hate each other
so much

we just do
