Mad Season - Slip Away (feat Mark Lanegan)

Brand new Mad Season song - Slip Away from the upcoming Above Deluxe Edition Reissue. Pre-order now at Mike McCready says the following about the song: “Slip Away,’ which I wrote, was kind of my feeling at the time how [Mad Season] was slipping away. The guitar solo at the end of that, you can hear the pain that’s in that. That’s my pain of how this whole thing was all falling apart when Baker and Layne were dying... Mark [Lanegan] put lyrics to that and they mean something different now... but I’m getting a little deep in to what the lead is. You’ll listen to it and you’ll hear pain.“ Here is my interpretation of the lyrics: born of the water born of the flame this life is a monster don’t you know it’s name the house it is wooden the house it is stone the proud broken hearted and close to the bone once you had a nightmare and then it came to pass crazy sky in the morning green as the grass covering a (? grave ?) just (a) slip away just (a) slip away mmhmm mmm just (a slip away down to the water drawn to the flame this life will leave you crippled don’t you know the game once you woke up choking but then you held it down dry as the sand in the desert black as the clouds covering the sun (Mike’s guitar solo/weeping) Disclaimer: I do not own the copyright of the audio visual.
