Most of the time it’s better to just enjoy the ride. ________________________________ Credits: Written by Evgeny Starshinov Additional writing by Maxim Shepelev Guitars recorded and performed by Evgeny Starshinov & Maxim Shepelev Drums recorded and performed by Maxim Shepelev Bass recorded and performed by Maxim Shepelev Editing by Maxim Shepelev Vocals & Lyrics written by Thomas John Byrne Vocals performed by Thomas John Byrne & Sergey Rodionov Mixed by Roman Kharyukov, Whale Audio Mastered by Kris Crummett, Interlace Audio Artwork by Thomas John Byrne
