It switches around just right.  The transitions are Awesome!  Personally I feel like it&#8217;s one of the best produced songs I&#8217;ve done.<\/p>\n<p>The story of this song occurs in Iowa.  My wife and I had gone there to live &#8211; with her parents.  I was a truck driver, and snow quite literally was my death.  No I&#8217;m not talking about cocaine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Desperate as it seems&#8221; &#8211; the last part of this song.  Had Anthony Valdez pen it&#8217;s lyrics.  Since this part of the song was written first, he got really pissed at me when I did it.  Called me a plagiarist.  I of course took offense to this, because I wrote the music.  I never said I wrote all the lyrics.<\/p>\n<p>To my knowledge I&#8217;ve always given him credit where credit is due with this song, and every other song we&#8217;ve written\/preformed together.<\/p>\n<h4>Lyrics<\/h4>\n<p>Put your fears to sleep<br \/>\nLet them drift off<br \/>\nRest your weary feet<br \/>\nyou did a good job<\/p>\n<p>Many people see death as black,<br \/>\nMine is white.
