This is an un-released song not on any albums...
It's when Mike was still in the band... I've heard
that Vagrant may release it on a "Before You Were
Punk" comp... but I just got it off Napster...
If you ask me it's a really bad-ass Alkaline Trio
song because it's not like their style... they didn't
write it... The song was originally written by a band
called Berlin... blah blah blah
enjoy, jim
