No Picture Ben Rhythm Player	#4 by Ben Formica at May 1, 2007 at 11:21 AM EST
	wow unique interpitations.... mine is this ( the title is refering to the smell of a meth or speed addicts breath (rotting teeth, stale, but strong smell) kinda reminicent to motorhead the band motor is the name given th the drug notice everything in this song is going fast and not caring about anything ( meth user mind frame ? ) Getting your kicks as you are shooting the line Sending the shivers up and down your spine ( mabe this is starting to make sence ? ) Motorbreath The sign of living fast ( the distint smell of a users breath ) not that i have any experiance or any thing motor head - Speed freak along with other songs helped me come to this opinion
