    [My favorite song off The Gathering! This song NEVER fails in getting my blood pumped. I was visiting a cousin in Dubai that took me to a talent show at his school. This one band covered this song. I'm telling you, I barely mosh...but i literally went INSANE!! I just started throwing myself all over, punching, kicking whatever. I thrashed all the way till the back of the crowd. At the end of the song I'm all calm and I notice this mob from front row coming after me to kick my ass.

    You do not wanna be anywhere near me while I'm driving to this song.]

    Down For Life

    When I see my brother
    What I see is like no other
    What we had forever lost
    Can't deny our friendship
    Feeling like it's time to end this
    bad relation ripped appart

    When we're young
    and disaranged
    We didn't know it
    any other way
    Now were grown
    He's still the same
    People see him suffering

    I am not about to run away
    Turn my back to him
    In his darkest hour
    Give him will to fight
    Antagonize his thoughts
    See him thew his thoughest times
    Purify his weakened heart

    All the friends
    We feel the same
    the way it was
    back in the day
    The more we change
    He stays the same
    Will we ever see our friend again

    I... feel that...
    I can't protect myfriend from himself

    All I've got
    are these lessons learned in life
    The lessons I've been taught
    They still remain
    inside me thoughts
    Even as we speak
    as troubled as it seems
    He'll always be a friend of mind
    That's the way it was
    and always will be

    When we're young
    and disaranged
    We didn't know it
    any other way
    Now were grown
    He's still the same
    People see him suffering

    I... feel...
    I cannot help my friend
    help him self

    You... can't hear what I say
    Never going away...
    still friends down for life...
    can you still fight...

    All I've got
    are these lessons learned in life
    The lessons I've been taught
    They still remain
    inside me thoughts
    Even as we speak
    as troubled as it seems
    He'll always be a friend of mind
    That's the way it was
    and always will be

    Now in the end
    it plain to see
    what kind of friend
    He has been for me
    all along he could never see
    Who he was
    and always be

    I... feel...
    I cannot help my friend
    help him self
