Sweet and young sounding upbeat love song. It sounds like the end of one of those movies where it's the last day of school and everyone is going away to college so, you know, it's sentimental, because at it's core was a tender, albeit awkward coming of age story. Male Vocals, Rock, Modern Rock
Brooding and mysterious this track starts softly and builds to an epic and frustrated rant. Conveys the feeling of hopelessness and frustration with intermittent smatterings of progressive electronic sounding guitar riffs and thrashing drum parts.
