about

Track five from High Side Driver's self titled debut EP

lyrics

There’s no telling when her light stays off / Or where her mind has been / Amy just stares at the wall / Her door is closed / With latch across / So Daddy won’t get in / Her Mother drinks but she’s never home.
Won’t be long before she sees the black dog / Won’t be long before she sees the black dog / I said won’t be long before she sees black dog / Amy’s a good girl / Never a bad word no / Don’t ask her things that she heard / For she’ll cry...
And then no one stops to hear her talk / She says it’s getting worse / The black dog seems to follow her / And her Daddy only strike her down / For speaking out of turn / Now Amy just wants to end it all.
Won’t be long before she sees the black dog / Won’t be long before she sees the black dog / I said won’t be long before she sees black dog / Amy’s a good girl / Never a bad word no / Don’t ask her things that she heard / For she’ll cry...
Every single day 6 Australian men and women take their lives / Most people who hearing these statistics just turn the other way believing this was the easy way out / Truth is the decision to take any life is not an easy one to make / Their pleas for help falling on deaf ears / Because ignorance keeps breeding contempt in this country / But if it was your Brother, your Sister, your Mother, your Father, your Son or your Daughter you would do anything, everything, anything, anything, anything!
See, black dog, bleed, no!
See, black dog, bleed, no!

about

High Side Driver image

High Side Driver Melbourne, Australia

HIGH SIDE DRIVER are a Melbourne, Australia based alternative rock band, formed in early 2010.

The sound is dark and powerful, and yet highly accessible, emotive and infectious at the same time, with soaring melodic lead vocals backed up by catchy riffs, inventive basslines and slamming drum beats. All underpinned by a sense of dynamics, variation and light and shade. ... more
