A SONG FOR STEVE

My friend Steve Madigan, playing with his band, Dose Of Adolescence in 2005. He passed away a year later at the age of 21 from a car accident. I wrote this song to help deal with the pain that I was feeling at the time and to let him know that I was thinking about him. I think he would have dug the title. I miss you bro.

Guinness Never Lets Me Down

All on my own in so many ways

They say I'm the most selfish and fake

But how can I shake off one more loss?

How can I shake off one more loss unlike it's one more life?

And I imagine what it's like to die:

I fall back into clouds, there goes my head

I allowed myself to get caught up in the moment once again

Transcending space and time must be way more fun than some may advertise

Hold my hand as I touch the sky

I see you when I close my eyes

Dreaming of love, life in the sun

My days are full of sweat, my nights full of fun

And Stephen it seems this life ain't even good for me

I wanna be the complete opposite of me

And I no longer fear death 'cause I'll be with you
