about

I originally wrote this while trying to play the guitar part from The Jam's "Butterfly Collector" on bass in 2014. After several years of updating it and adding parts here and there, it finally saw light during Brickwall rehearsals in early 2018 and finally made its premiere at the Independence Roxplosion on July 5, 2018.

This tune's about the West Memphis Three and a dear friend who was wrongfully accused of a crime he didn't commit.

lyrics

Claret footsteps haunt you wherever you go
Calcite letter on your back, scarring everyone that you know

Thick red shadow looming over your brain
Eternally seatless on this plane

Locomotive breaks down
No service at this bay
Missteps send their white palm to your soul
Human error you can’t erase

An early pine case of ill-fitting shape
Osteoid fingers dangle you by the nape
See the world beneath your toes sitting agape
As it abhors your newfound chape

Once soul’s inside, you can’t escape
A mark that haunts you when you sleep
Hex removal, seal the fate
Your only chance, abandon this plane

We are the collective reincarnation of Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein, and we're here to kill rock 'n roll. Poorly.
