Lyrics:
I don't know why, but sometimes I wonder deeply
What I would do if you passed away
I think of words, words that I wish I'd told you by the end
Dead messages I can still say to you
Why should I sit with fear? We all know that tragedies are never fair
Wait, do I have an issue?
Dreaming you're gone just to see if I'd miss you
No, no it hurts to imagine
Letting go and wearing black the day we know you're never coming home
Who decides it's our turn to go?
Who decides?
Live, because you're dying (quickly)
I'm still trying (we don't really know)
No, life is a show, and tragedies are never fair
We're all given a script that's been written
(Blindly, blindly) unaware of who will be
Who will be cast? Who will be cast to come home?
Time can be unforgiving
Status quo on the living
(Unknown) What will I (second home) most remember
(Buried) from our time (unexposed) spent together?
When am I to go? Who'll be there to notice?
Will I go alone? Who'll be there?
Who'll write my obituary once I find the cemetery?
Live, because you're dying (quickly)
I'm still trying (we don't really know)
No, life is a show, and tragedies are never fair
We're all given a script that's been written
(Blindly, blindly) unaware of who will be
Who will be cast? Who will be cast out?
I don't know why, but sometimes I wonder deeply
What you would do if I passed away

The lead singer is incredible at making his melodies flow with the complexity of the music yet be very catchy at the same time. One talented fucking guy
Make sure you check out Donovan Melero's (name of singer) side projects, Sianvar, Nova Charisma, and his solo work.
My father is dying, laying on life support, and it took me until now to finally understand this song for what it truly reflects. At least it's a comfort. Thank you for that. It's worth a lot.
A1ch3mi5t32 You Good?
hope you’re okay man
we are all dealt our cards in life. dont let this defeat you
I hope you’ve been able to grieve since your initial comment.
My only living parent is 61 and I dunno what to do myself!
I can’t pre-emptively grieve, I cannot find solace in her age relative to mine. I gotta find a way to support her while limited in options. Wish me luck. I wish you the best❤
Saw them live and was confused watching the drummer being the lead singer. Wasn't expecting that and them to be so fucking good at the same time.
Thank you so much for the kind words. It means a lot. I remember Hemet. Love Alaythia! I hope to stop by there again very soon! Keep drumming! And thank you again!!
Sup Donny thanks for being one of my favorite bands and drummers/singer
love you man
I'm on my Math rock phase, and I'm discovering so many cool music. Iove it here

I could listen to this song all my life and never get tired of it. Especially at 2:05
Yeah
this song has always touched me, the first time I heard it was right after one of my closest friends passed away unexpectedly in a car crash a week before his 18th birthday.
We miss you Victor 💛
Emo girl :D
this is honestly one of the best songs i've ever heard
I thought the same shit after listen #1, now at 10 in a row, I'd say that comment holds up.
it’s been 10 years...and I still love this.
They should be more known, they are so awesome like come on.
God I love this song. Such an amazing band!
God damn this whole album is fucking G O L D. Vocal melodies, drumming, guitars leads, bass ,AND Donovan is also the singer...
Elephantitis is easily one of the best EPs this year.
I'm jizzing over the drums in this song. Not to mention the fact I'm still mindfucked that the LEAD SINGER IS ALSO THE DRUMMER. How does that even work? Fuckin' magnets, man
Love the breakdown; high hats on the off-beats, throw in some slap bass.. beautiful!
thanks drew
Drew was so real for bringing people over to listen to them
they killed it last night at the rock yourself to sleep concert this band is legit they sound just the way they do on the ep
My favorite from EP.
I thought i was the only one who completely lost it at that point lol. this band is amazing! every part of it. Each member contributes so much!!!
I love so much this songs
These guys are soo fucking good I saw them this past March and they were absolutely amazing let alone the fact that the drummer is the lead vocals to that's fucking Rad! One of my favs that I have recently found myself neglecting thought I'd get a listen in.
timee can beee unforgivinggggg
A lot Like Birds ended up using a similar drum pattern here in this song at 2:48 in their song called Connector right at minute one. lol cool
Wow, it is the same. Good ear!
I was actually thinking of Connector at 0:56!
I'm not sure but it's the best type of music out there really.
Thank you Rocksmith for turning me on to this band.
+Joshua Friend NY
I didn't even know this song was on rocksmith
@@lordozz this song isn’t but Eight Ball Coroners Pocket is
Same here man lol. They're on a tour this fall with a bunch of really good bands, that's what brought me here, and now I'm all the more hype.
beautiful voice
My favorite song by you guys :] Def
This song is amazing...
Another amazing song, I can't wait for the EP.
you guys were amazing live!
Saw them a couple days ago at the "rock yourself to sleep" tour. Easily my new favorite band.
I was at that show! They killed it for sure
this is amazing! i cant believe i just now heard of you guys!
This is amazing. Wow the lead singer sounds a bit like Anthony from Circa Survive.
the chick on the cover looks like a young version of Linda from Bob's burgers, or an older version of Tina haha
Autumn Rice an alter ego from the singer too 😂
It hella looks like an old Tina 😂
Accidently clicked this n fell in love
I like this better than their new stuff
Damn good song!
i wish i wouldve known the words to sing along but they were awesome at last nights show in atlanta!!!! 2nd favorite band ;)
Like Circa Survive plus Dance Gavin Dance. Great track.
Great show in Tampa, guys. Come again soon :)
I totally loved it!! Me encanto
i wish i could give this more thumbs up.
In habit form! Saw y’all at the Masquerade in Atlanta dope very!!!
1:36 to 1:44 is the best part of entire song
They were at the white rabbit yesterday.^-^
RIP white rabbit
Definitely reminds me of the Juturna Anthony Green. When I imagine Dance Gavin Dance's new album, I imagine a more funkier version of this song (if they make use of Tilian's relaxing vocals and add in some slow parts).
Tilians vocals are anything but relaxing man not saying they're bad but his voice well to me at least sounds like if nails on a chalkboard was a pleasant sound of that makes sense
how i didnt hear of these guys before rocksmith is just astounding
freaking amazing *-*
Dat bass at 2:20
no. Although he really likes Circa.
did 2:30 remind anyone else of circa? love this band so much, was lucky enough to see them play, they were ridiculous. if you ever get a chance to see this band live, don't pass it up!
Same thing that brought me here. DGD, ALLB, I the Mighty, and the Orphan the Poet. Gunna be a magical evening lol
rest in peace ethan ❤️
Good shit! Love it!
My best friends just left and this helps somehow
Lyrics are deeeeeeep
1:15-1:30 is my favorite

Throw in Saosin for good measure

It's all good. I love hail the sun no matter what, there fuckin amazing.
Kinda sounds like connector from a lot like birds from 0:54-1:02
sianvar,allb, and hail the sun all have something similar in terms of sound
Donavan you kill me on these drums lolol hey did jonny tell you what I texted him
don't have to wonder ne more. r.i.p 1.
waiting for that EP
Read the lyrics! Mainly at the end
Fuck I can’t believe I’m 26 and I’m JUST hearing about this band…
Of course it is.
How do post-hardcore bands come up with all these weird chords?
aarongtr180 why do you ask annoying dumb questions
aarongtr180 it's called creativity you dense moron with no substance 😂
2:05 That's some seriously tasty guitar noodling.
TEMPOSHARK IS IN THE SUGGESTIONS OMG I THOUGHT I JUST SKAFJLKSJFASLK I AHVE ONE OF HIS SONGS I'M FREAKING OUT CUZ I WASN'T SURE HE EXISTSED???
they are touring with DGD :D
Fucking becoming a favorite band of mine certainly.
if you guys like this music i highly suggest listening to Welcome to Limerick.
very good band
Couldn’t find them
nice one
You've probably been asked, but pleaseeeee do a Hail the Sun drum cover. That'd be so sick.
Sounds like the lead singer from circa (which is awesome)
he is the vocalist from circa survive.
never mind Anthony green is the vovalist
vocalist**
nah, he's not. it's Donovan Melero. same vocal style, though.
Agreed
Is the singer for this band the singer for Circa Survive as well?
magnets, man
magnets
So do hail the sun list skramz as one of their influential genres?
sha-d paul I bet
sha-d paul at the drive-in too
a mixture is more than one thing, whats the other part?
Got me
Going to do a cover of this one yet? This would be so kool ^_^
The woman in the cover kinda looks like a Luther from Ranfren
🖤
who will be cast to come homee?
Saw them livec:
I see this and it reminds me of my chameleons. They look at me just like this hahah
Came on my Pandora...thought it was Circa Survive.
