    Story Behind the Song
    This song was the one true collaboration between Michael(that's me) and Sean. Sean came up with the original skeleton of the song, and then I proceeded to add the bridge, intros, outro, second verse lyrics, etc. This was one of the first songs recorded for our promo CD and was originally done with Sean playing a keyboard drum kit. At the time of that recording we changed the structure of the song a bit and came up with the two part vocal for the chorus. We later recorded an instrumental acoustic version that will be appearing on disc two of our upcoming record. To make the final version of the song however, I felt it needed to be significantly different than the acoustic version. So in addition to adding the drums and vocals back in, the string section was cut from the final mix. Both this version and the instrumental will be appearing on our record.

    Lyrics
    Dismissed
    Forget
    Shove it in a drawer
    I don't
    Have no
    Feelings anymore
    It's gone
    Who cares
    Nice but not for good
    Head straight
    Head gone
    Somehow wish you would

    I'm dead to you now
    Don't resurrect it, don't resurrect it
    You're dying to me now
    I wanna resurrect it, I wanna resurrect it

    Knock down
    Break through
    As the hours creep on by
    Stars fall
    In front of me
    Life will suck you dry

    So wait, burn yourself and cry alone
    Too late, cut the ties, turn off the phone
    Lie to every soul but you
    Against myself I'm still longing to be true
