Nowhere To Run
You’re gonna die
I’m gonna kill you
You’re gonna die
I’m gonna kill you
Feeling all blue
I’ve got no more time
They all hate me
Because of my crime
Their threats come at me
Their voices are loud
All to condemn me
My face is still proud
You were my good friend
I saved you before
I thought you turned good now
But you asked for some more
You had to provoke me
So I beat you
Watched your skull bleed
So now I feel blue
Out of ideas
Nowhere to run
Looking right down
Barrel of a gun
And so I dream
Voices in my head
Delusions mock me
My best friend is dead
I feel no guilt
But I shed a tear
I see your dead body
With the blood all smeared
A bird sings a song
It’s all for you
Outside it’s so warm
And the skies are all blue
You’re gonna die
I’m gonna kill you
You’re gonna die
I’m gonna kill you

Yeah, it's pretty messed up lyrics. The story behind it is pretty funny tho. I made the track 2 years ago, when I first learned how to make a vocoder. As I was doing a mic check, my little brother came in to check out what I was doing and I told him to say something.
"You're gonna die!"
I then took the sample and warped it into the half of the chorus. Then I realized it was fucking catchy...
The bassline flowed right underneath, and the rest of the song came into my mind that night...
ah... the endearing things little brothers say. Awesome song, BTW. I've been hearing it a lot on Pandora.com
enjoy your songs!
how did you setup a vocoder? do you have a good tutorial to recommend?
Ahhh, good idea, I did my own experimentation with vocoding to get it right. I'll write up a tutorial this week!
Definitely dig the song. I also heard it on Pandora- thanks for putting it out there!
at fist i thought "i'm gonna kill you" said "nothing like you". in like a responding threat way until i found out the lyrics. i still love the song though!
Got forwarded your gear. That's some awesome stuff you have there. Vocoder win. Thanks.
Just heard it on Pandora. Had to go to iTunes and purchase it right away! Cool ass song man.
i heard this on pandora
i instantly loved it i even thought of using the song and making a video for it for my film class, i hope thats cool..
hahah i love the lyrics!
its like dark but happy sounding;
fucking catchy.
totally adding this to my myspace page and making a friend request.
<3
Dude me and my friend are going to Dj in clubs soon. We are called "Illuminati" and could use your talents in our electro journey.
I guess I'm not the only one that found you through Pandora, I'm eternally grateful to them for that haha. I've probably said this before but I absolutely love your music. :]
song is perfect after watching Donnie Darko! Heard it immediately after on pandora, sweet.
omg!!!!!!!!!!! i seriouly love ur music!!! my bf was the one that introduce me to ur music cuz i love crystal castles and he was like dont listen to them listen to stegosaurus rex and now i think im in love..lol<33
i swear man this song just puts me in a trance, keep up the awesome work!
Please write more music using a vocoder, i just bought one and i had so much fun figuring out this song plus its just amazing to listen to. love you and my brother for showing me your music <3
Love this! <3 Pandora.
I came here to find out what 80's dystopian this came from - Blade Runner, Solar Babies, Night of the Comet - and was pleased you just made this up!
Do the vocoder to some old monologue
The song sounds a lot like Crystal Castles. I like it dearly. Soooo transcedental.
This is the best.
Love this song ha ha ah
Like a lot of the other people commenting, I heard this song on Pandora. I love it! You said you made it ~4 years ago? (2 years before Dec 08) Have you considered making a dubstep remix? That would be awesome
Found this through pandora. Love it! To me it sounded more like:
You're gonna die
Probably like you-u-u
Until I read the lyrics, of course.
Absolutely love your song!!!
Just the kind of music im looking for
keep making awesome music
your music is awesome! i just bought your album via iTunes. I too heard you though Pandora but penumbra got to me before i heard nowhere to run. Both are excellent tracks, cant wait to hear more! you just made my life, keep it up :)
I absolutely love this song! I hope to hear a lot more out of you.
I love this song and I can't wait to hear more from you!
awesome song!
Here's what NOT to do with this song: listen to it on your iPod at the gym and sing out loud...forgetting only YOU can hear the music.
Love the songs- the lyrics are creepy- but the song is awesome!
somebody played your song on turntable.fm. i immediately did some research on what i had just heard and after a few days of putting this track on heavy youtube rotation, here i am... =) so i just wanted to compliment you on this track as i've already played it for multiple friends.
Today this song and album artwork magically became my homescreen on my phone and then went away... Not exactly the kind of song you want to hear when you think someone has hacked your phone and is trying to send you some kind of message.... Sincerely freaked the f**k out
I love this song so much. Not only is it catchy, I think it's pretty intimate.

It's about "Of Mice and Men".
It's the final scene.
Lennie is the best friend.
The song is sung by George; his thoughts right after what he did to Lennie.
It's not that creepy when you know what it's about. More so sad.
Please tell me you are still making music. If so, where can I hear it?
I'm still making music!
