about

‘This one is the first Danny Ramirez song with a question mark instead of an exclamation mark at the end of the title. Due to the fine lyrics, What Will Be Left? sounds damn serious. The words deal with the fact that I don’t have a soul, since the soul isn’t scientifically proven and as far as I’m concerned there is just no reason for such a concept. Basically this song could be seen as a follow-up to I Deserve To Burn!, that concludes the previous tape (released in October 1999). What Will Be Left? is the opening track of the Songs About Death In A-minor!-tape, from December 2000 -- a release with serious, somewhat uncomfortable lyrics and all songs starting off with an A-minor chord. This slow song was written and recorded on Tuesday 31 August 1999 in a certain state of mind, caused by the use of speed and xtc throughout the weekend before. The final mix consists of the original guitar and vocal tracks recorded on that inspiring depressive day. The backing vocals were done in November 2000, when What Will Be Left? had turned out to be the herald for the making of the Songs About Death!-tape. Done live only a few times from possibly late 2002 until somewhere in 2005 or 2006, with the only certain performance date being November 20, 2004.’

lyrics

One won't be able to cast out
The lust for death inside of me
Raging on and defining my nature
Defining the way of this life
I've sworn to endure
Until flames purify what will be left for hell to burn

Once I was able to comply with
The joy for life I felt within
But those times have gone for many a year
Leaving to die all reason
And granting me this expiring life
For flames to purify what will be left for hell to burn
