Story Behind The Song

It was a year after his death and I wanted to write something that sent a message hopefully above and on these plains that Dime nor the music he inspired never died. It almost seemed frightening to get on stage because of what that piece of shit did. But really all he did was make Dime and all of his followers ten times stronger. The fans will go on without any fear in their hearts.

Song Description

Dimebag was killed and the metal world was broken. But in his memory everyone must keep moving on to keep the music and his memory alive.

Lyrics

Hit the stage with a terror in my head
They said before it'll never be the same
We watched him fly we also watched him die
This piece of shit who created some hell

How can we go on playing knowing the truth
That some fuck can come and take us away
How can we go on playing someone might shoot
I guess we'll have to go on

(chorus) - Play it loud with a terminal feeling
These fucking lies open wide we're on the same side
Bang your head with out that terminal feeling
These fucking lies no one dies we're on the same side

The fear is gone I guess his mission failed
Cause we'll play on fuck that piece of shit Gail
Fans will rise for the troops on the center stage
We won't forget the name our fallen friend Dime

We will go on playing now that we know the truth
no man or woman could ever take us away
We will go on playing no matter the cost
I guess we'll have to go on

(chorus)
