Lyrics

Shot gun blast from a young man's past couldn't take no more had to even the score old man dies with the truth he denies he won't harm noone not his only son standing with the gun on his shoulder never thought he'd live to be older is he better off now that his father is dead ever since a boy he's been tryin to forget mama never was what a mother should be but a loser such a loser jumped on his bike he would ride all night runaway from it all leave the nightmare behind wake in the morning in a brand new place where the people he'd meet didn't know his face he don't really know where he's going and he can't forget where he's been fly on your wings up to the sky only your dreams can heal you away from the dark into the light now you can see the real you standing with your life on your shoulder never thought you'd live to be older

Review:

Wow! The "Mike Tramp" of White Lion!!! Well, I'm glad to hear that Mike hasn't lost any of his energy in his newfound sound. A great blend of organ textured classic rock with a tinge of alternative grunge makes "Better Offer" pretty compelling tune.

Rich vocal harmony textures really allows the tune to wind itself down effectively.

Great job, & welcome back Mike!!!
