Song Description

There simply is no other band out there on earth better suited to detail the menacing chaos of the world today than New Jersey's own masters of mayhem in music, Sixty Miles Down. Currently hard at work on a brand-new EP for release next year, John Mosco (Vocals, Guitar, Drums), Dave Crum (Guitar), and Jay Brachman (Bass), sound enormously epic & more relevant than ever before on their grim & groovy lead-single "Gotta Get Out" - a savage cut guaranteed to scorch its way up to the tops of every major online platform this fall in 2021. Stocked & loaded with gritty chemistry & charisma, armed with intent, purpose, and a massive chip on their shoulders - Sixty Miles Down unapologetically takes aim at the verifiable lies surrounding us daily, propagated by our so-called leadership and mainstream media manipulators. From the all-out explosive dynamics in their musicianship, to their hypnotic harmonies, powerful lead vocals, and insightful lyricism - the new single "Gotta Get Out" is every bit of an indictment of our society as it is undeniably red hot entertainment. "Gotta Get Out" is a cautionary tale that brutally examines the right here and now, excoriating the truth that still exists within a world filled with twisted cynicism, endless gaslighting, and systemic malfunctions thrown into overdrive. Join Sixty Miles Down as they tear down the modern-day era of misinformation & misrepresentation in a sonic battle to bring light to the impending darkness that threatens to envelop the lost soul our planet and swallow us whole.

Lyrics

Gotta Get Out
(J.Mosco)
Did you see them coming?
The cowards that are running
Around commiting homicide?
Hear the babies crying
Blocking out the sirens
While the hopeless dance with suicide
The world is upside down now
Everyone is learning how
To live within the land of the dead
Tripping over bodies
Hoping that somebody's
Gonna tell you that it's all in your head

Everything is breaking down
All around it's over now
The world is just a dumping ground

Gotta get out

Hopeless situation
Mass manipulation
Coming at you from all sides
Following the leaders
Learning from the cheaters
Poisoning developing minds
So sad
Watching everything we have
Fall apart
While we pretend we don't know
Hide behind denials
Keep running from tomorrow
But the sands of time
Continue to flow

Paradise is burning down
Give the finger take a bow
Why don't you tell me how does it feel
To put our kids in danger?
Past the point of no return
Guess we're never gonna learn

Worshiping gods that divide and control
The blind keep on leading the blind
The people who lead are the ones who deceive
They feed off the weak to survive

We are wasting so much time
Swimming around in lies

Past the point of no return
Guess we're never gonna learn
Paradise is burning down
Give the finger take a bow
The world is just a dumping ground
Everything is breaking down
All around it's over now
