[@justincooper5189]

if they'd replace the synth with bass, they'd have a total badass song. bring some darkness to the song, cause the synth makes it sound more like glam pop, but the lyrics are what gets me. now, if they'd grab their balls and sound off, they could get further into the depths of darkness this song is meant to bring out.
