Screwdriver by The Immigrants

A one of a kind dark and haunting musical masterpiece that tells the story of a childhood event that greatly affected a member of the band. The loss of a best friend when he was stabbed in the head with a screwdriver in a brutal attack by an older teenager. The song revisits the event and the killer in a performance of a lifetime.

At the end of days when your final song plays will it be one of God and Angels or The Devil and Demons? Be prepared to be taken to a place where you’ve never been before, but don’t stay too long.

For Ben. During your short life and our friendship you thought me that it was ok to be different, to dream, to create and use our imaginations to embrace reality. In life you were a wonderful spirit and friend, in death you continue to influence me. - Darren

Lyrics

Everybody’s saying that the writings on the wall
The screws are in your coffin the cigarettes an all
Everybody’s praying that you’ll miss the step and fall
The sentence isn’t finished
The story isn’t told

So Sleep tonight till Kingdoms come
The end of days judgement comes

No you can never make this right
No no no no you cannot replace a life

Feel alone alive
Hate me despise
Me

Every shadows pointing at the mirror on the wall
You took away their brother their son their life their all
Every-time you’ll try but it never washes off
Your image isn’t tarnished
It’s torn right through the core

So Sleep tonight till Kingdoms come
The end of days judgement comes

No you can never make this right
No no no no you cannot replace a life

Feel alone alive
Hate me despise
Fear me alone tonight
Hate me despise
Me
