Epitaph Records is an artist-first indie label founded in Los Angeles by Bad Religion guitarist, Brett Gurewitz. Early releases from a variety of punk heavyweights helped launch the 90s punk explosion. Along the way, Epitaph has grown and evolved creatively while sticking to its mission of helping real artists make great recordings on their own terms.

"True" - Lyrics by Danny Elfman

True just like me to think
You need my energy
I just can’t help myself
Why do I live in hell?

You need someone just like me
That’s what I need to believe
True or not, it doesn’t matter
I‘ve got no place to go

I‘m looking for a broken hand
Something I can understand
Time has not been kind to me

(We talk about our destiny—
We talk about our destinations) (X3)
I got no destination
I just got termination
We talk about our harmony
We think about our termination

(Guitar Solo)

(We talk about our destiny—
We talk about our destinations) (X2)

True just like me to think
I make big plans for change
You don’t need me no more
I’m still looking for the door

It’s just like me to say I’m sorry
It’s just like me to do it again
It’s just like me to plan tomorrow
It’s just like me to forget what it was
It’s just like me to chart a course
To drift at sea, an empty vessel
I’m right back where I started
I’ve got no destiny

(We talk about our destiny—
We talk about our destinations) (X3)
I got no destiny (X3)
We talk about our harmony
We think about our termination

I got no destination
