The song is absolutely AMAZING! What do you think? If you have not heard the song, check this post for more infos and download! Read the real lyrics below:

Take me, I’m alive
Never was a girl with a wicked mind
But everything looks better when the sun goes down
I had everything, opportunities for eternity
And I could belong to the night

Eyes, your eyes
I can see in your eyes
Eyes, your eyes

You make me wanna die
I’ll never be good enough
You make me wanna die
And everything you love
Will burn up in the light
And everytime I look inside your eyes
You make me wanna die

In recent interview to Road Crew Magazine, James talked about his producer life and mentioned Taylor Momsen again. Check it below:

RCM: On James’ work as a producer and what it is like being behind the scenes and then having to go back out on stage:

James: “Being behind the scenes is my comfort zone. Being the lead singer of SIXX: A.M. is kind of an anomaly for me; it’s been a blast, but I’m comfortable behind the mixing board, writing songs, working with other artists, bringing the best out of them, and I love that. Right now, I’m just finishing up a record with Taylor Momsen, who is one of the stars of the TV show ‘Gossip Girl’, and it’s an amazing record. She just turned 16 years old, and I know that when we think of 16-year-old artists, we think of Disney, we think of Hilary Duff — who I’ve also written with — but this is something different. She is the second coming of Deborah Harry or Courtney Love; it’s so heavy and so beautifully written. I’m incredibly excited about that record; it’s gonna be coming out on Interscope, I think, early next year. But right now, I think that the three of us have just been finally sharing that excitement again. I would say that in the last couple of days of writing the SIXX: A.M. record, it’s started to feel like it did when we first sat down and started writing ‘The Heroin Diaries’ soundtrack, and we were all waiting for that — we were all waiting for that moment when it all kind of hit us and we went, ‘OK, it’s time.’ And I would say it’s time.“
