Story Behind The Song
What were we thinking? This is my attempt at an AC/DC type of song - sounds a bit dated, but I like it. No real weak spots in the structure.
Song Description
Guitar riff driven rock tune with a spikey vocal. A song about a meglomaniac, of either sex, a giant raging ego.

Lyrics
I've seen the lie of the land, you're dangerous, duplicitious
You could break somebody's heart, think you can play the game good and get away clean, that you won't have to pay, the gates of hell are beckoning, shining in the light, it just looks so good, so damned nice, to do just what ain't right.
I've seen you before, you're a dog at the door, if that's what love is, its wasted on you. A cigarette in the dirt, wake up before its over, Cigarette in the dirt, a fire from a smoulder
There's something pure about you, its not your heart, its not your soul
Put yourself in my shoes, well can't you see, I see right thru you
you think you've earned the right to see, the world revolve around you
Shining in the light, you're glorious in your own sight
I've seen you before, you're a dog at the door, if that's what love is, its wasted on you. A cigarette in the dirt, wake up before its over, cigarette in the dirt, get away from me you bitch
