about

This is a song about a man who has nowhere else to go, then he's given a plane ticket out. A chance at a better life. It's his last shot, and it's all up to him...

lyrics

I'm just another body
Another guy playing cards
I just want another body
I just want another mind
And you'll see
How much better you can be
When you change
From your ways again

And the virus starts
To rip apart
My brains
With paper hearts
You don't feel much
And you don't change
A getaway can maybe save
What's left of me these days
Or am I just doomed to stay this way
I'll never know
Unless I change my ways

Red paint diesel
One flight Away
Four hours
Till freedom
This feeling
Really should
Have killed him
