37. Ride or Die

(Heavy guitar riff intro distorted and driving) [Cheering Crowd] (Verse 1) Streetlights bleedin' crimson, rain slicks the asphalt down Another night, another fight, another lonely town Saw you standin' in the shadows, silhouette against the haze Didn't need a single word, just the flicker in your gaze (Chorus) If you had to ask, this ain't for you!, understand? This ain't some fleeting fancy, held within my hand This is ri-ri-ride or die!, ri-ri-ride or die! a burning, reckless flame A hurricane of passion, whisperin' your name (Verse 2) Heartbeat drums a rhythm, against the pounding rain Two souls entwined in darkness, whisperin' each other's pain We built our castle on defiance, cemented with regret But damn the consequences, ain't no turning back yet (Guitar solo soaring and emotional, with wah pedal) (Verse 3) They say we're doomed to burn out, a shooting star's swift flight That love like ours is dangerous, a shadowed, endless night But in the heart of the chaos, a fragile beauty blooms And in your eyes I see forever, chasing away the glooms (Chorus) If you had to ask, this ain't for you!, understand? This ain't some fleeting fancy, held within my hand This is ri-ri-ride or die!, ri-ri-ride or die! a burning, reckless flame A hurricane of passion, whisperin' your name (Bridge) (Tempo slows slightly, more melancholic) Maybe we're both lost souls, searching for a guiding light But in each other's arms we find a solace in the night A fragile, desperate comfort, a love both fierce and frail A twisted, tangled story, whispered on the gale (Chorus) If you had to ask, this ain't for you!, understand? This ain't some fleeting fancy, held within my hand This is ri-ri-ride or die!, ri-ri-ride or die! a burning, reckless flame A hurricane of passion, whisperin' your name (Outro) Ride or die!!!!!… (fades out with heavy guitar riff and cymbal crashes) (Instrumental outro with heavy distortion and feedback)
