Dead Horse #1

This was a cowrite with the Lynch Pins from a few years back. First verse was about some neighbors in Iowa who had the darkest, saddest vibe coming from their house, combined with a band assignment to write about beating a dead horse. I sent it to the Pins, and TJ sent this back to me with the bridge section tacked on. An interesting artifact of that kind of patchwork collaboration.

Lonely town, lonely town
Hear the taillights breaking down
Heard it twice, heard it twice
Every time it’s another round
