about

"Jason had a mandolin, and we were determined to use it. One of our funner songs we ever wrote….probably haven't played it in a cool 10 years."

lyrics

Well i was born in love
Raised in hatred
My father left and my mother blamed him
She said life and love
And peace and hope are luxuries we can't afford

But I know i don't belong
In this life it seems so wrong
And there can't be nothing right
With leaving your loved ones behind
It’s a shame but I’ve made up my mind

So I packed my things and headed westward
Took my strat my boots and best shirt
And I left a note upon my mothers dresser
Explaining how I wished i missed her
