Coming off the new Crown The Empire EP coming out close to summer 2011. I’ll post the album art and the name soon, if I’m feeling the love.
The name of this song is Faded Reflection.
Intro/Faded Reflection
Oh my brothers and sisters
mark my words this world will tear you apart
but not me
no
I have no soul to take
I have no heart to break
And Though callused may be my hands I will not be broken down today
Tear down your walls tonight
We are here to sing for you
Break down your walls tonight
We are here to scream for you
—————————————————————————-
cold as ice on the darkest december
spark a flame from a small burning ember
Trapped inside
of this prison made of mirrors
As I wait for for that spark to ignite me
try to break through these walls that surround
me
I’m trapped inside
this prison made of mirrors
The worst part of all
Is I’m the one who holds the key
prison of my mind
only purpose sets me free
I look to the sky
but my walls keep building higher
I’m surrounded by
creations I
need to feel alive
I look to the sky
But the answers all around me
Oh I don’t know why
I have to try
to take hold of my life
We walk
We breathe
We live
A lie
So I’ve decided that my music collection has gotten pretty monogamous. Music is everything to me, and if my collection is getting stale, my life is getting just as black and white. Which is why I’m asking for the help of the internet! Tell me what some of your favorite bands/songs are that you think I may never have heard of. I really want to get that kid in a candy shop feeling back when I discover some new music, so think really hard and write on my twitter. I promise I’ll write back what I think!

Just thought I’d show you guys a pic of me at prom! I was looking sexay ;)
Be on the look out for more studio blog posts coming in the near future…
This is the other song I recorded of my friends Nick Terry and Ian Stowers’ music group Project A. It’s called EMP haha. This was literally the first thing I ever recorded.
Project A - No More Excuses…
This is an exclusive demo called ‘No More Excuses’ of my friends group PROJECT A that I recorded in my bedroom back in the day. It was the first thing that I ever recorded and personally I dig the song haha. If you like it I’ll upload the other song that I recorded for them and you can tell me which one you like best. Also this song features me in the Bridge so listen for that :D
My sister is an amazing person, and (similar to me) she loves food. Check out the blog and please follow her on twitter and become her fan on Facebook.
This is What I do When I’m really bored haha
"A problem can be dealt with in one of two ways. You either find a solution, or you learn to accept it, but a problem is never constant."
So I know that when I don’t see a band either releasing a new song, or starting a world tour, I think they’re in the process of washing up or breaking up. So i thought I’d give you a detailed update on what I’ve been doing everyday since we just ended our month long Slow Motion tour with Eye Alaska and Rookie of the Year. So we got home and the only thing that was on my mind was Sleep, Time away from the other guys in the band, and seeing all of my family and friends. Sleep is taken for granted when you’re at home and not on the road. 6-8 hours of sleep is a rarity and a blessing when you’re on the road. We look at getting 4-6 everyday to allot the proper amount of cushion for our 3-8 hour drives from city to city everyday. So sleep is definitely a number one on the list. Now when I say time apart I don’t mean that in a bad way. I love all of my boys in the band, and we really are all best friends. However, people don’t realize what it’s like to live in those close quarters, so time apart is essential haha. And of course I’m huge on family and friends so I take as much time as I can to hang out with my really good friends Nick, Ian, Rachel, Becca, Lori, and Veronica. Now as far as the band…..
After a few needed days off we’re all back together working on our two new singles. You’ll be hearing these all summer long on the Vans warped tour, and the singles will be available this summer on iTunes. The songs are ‘This Gravity’ and ‘Ammunition’. We’ve been at A.J.’s house every day trying out new ideas and feels for the song, looking to make these the best songs we’ve released yet. To be honest I actually love both of these 10,000 times more than our entire EP ‘Play With Fire Get Burned’ even though I think those songs are great as well. The new singles are more developed, and have more of a feel to them. The melodies are simple and catchy, and we’re definitely up-ing the maturity aspect of the songs in the production. We leave at the end of may for LA to record for a week, and then we will be hitting the road starting July 20th on the Warped Tour promoting the new jams! I’m really excited for you guys to hear This Gravity and Ammunition, and of course I will be updating the Blog constantly with details, and insider info from the studio.
I love you guys :D and please tell your friends about my Bloggypoo. I’m really starting to like this!
