about

Recorded at Render Arcade in Columbus, Ohio.

I went back in time (2003), captured Michael Edwards, Daniel Lyon, and Myself (our band Defending Legacy), threw them into a video game and out came this chiptune cover of our song called "Running". Enjoy!

lyrics

(Lyrics to the original song):

I keep on running
In circles

Wearing a path
Wearing a path
Wearing a path
Wearing a path

Killing grass
With my feet
Killing grass
With my feet
With my feet

I know I've seen you here before
Your face a blur as we pass
I know I've seen you here before
Your face a blur as we pass

My feet pound bass
My breath fills space
My feet pound bass
My breath fills space

Between
Between
Between
Between, between

The frantic beats of my heart
That's controlling persistant rhythm
The frantic beats of my heart
That's controlling persistant rhythm

It keeps me moving
It keeps me moving
It keeps me moving
It keeps me moving
