So this song is a little rough, but I still would appreciate to hear what you guys think :) Makeshift lullabies (lyrics) city lights shield the daybreak - city lights keep you awake - how much more can one take waiting for the answer city streets keep extending - too ominous pretending - that they have an ending but we know it's a lie (pre-chorus) All you want is that minute's rest - even if a minute's all you get (Chorus) these are my makeshift lullabies - so i can sing to you all night - as you drift to sleep - these words are not so sweet but - they're just enough to get by - so close your eyes traffic jam lies up ahead - traffic jam slows the coming dread - not any clearer in your head - although we all keep quiet all the cars halt to a screech - all the cars unable to reach - the destination they beseech and no one can find (prechorus) (chorus) searching through cold and lifeless streets - searching for some sort of heat - but there's no one here to meet they're busy searching finding cold relentless life - finding no such thing as night - you wonder if it's worth the fight but find it could be (Chorus 2) Ill sing these makeshift lullabies - if I could sing to you all night - as you drift to sleep - these words are not so sweet but - they're just enough to get by - so close your eyes Bridge close your eyes- is it even worth it - close your eyes - push through it - close your eyes and city lights will fade away - to the dawn of a new day (chorus 2) close your eyes .... + Informações

Just wanted to post my first video as a response to a beautiful upload. I was so inspired by DJMichaelOrtegas "saddest song", so I sang whatever that came out, twice, and then created this video. Not a great singer, but infants will love it. Sorry for the horrible sound quality.No copyright infringement intended.. + Informações

We're continuing on our recording mission, and went up to do a sesson in Woodstock again on January 10, 2010. This is some footage that came about randomly from our FlipCam and was edited together for the sake of simplicity. Enjoy, and hopefully we'll have a finished product for you soon!. + Informações

This will be a song off of our upcoming debut album, "Shadows" due out early 2010. This a very rough recording from one of our rehearsals minus Christine. The song, as of now, is called "A Steady Reign" but is also referred to as "Dave" for the time being. I took this on my Flip camera, so the quality isn't the greatest. And I'm also aware that my hair is apparently coming to a point in the front of my head... thank the need to have a hat in winter for that one and laugh it up.. + Informações
