USL’s last show and the “new” project.
I wanted to start off by thanking every single person who has ever been behind me or any of the members in Under Spinning Lights. That band and its members are and forever will be family to me. I’ve learned more about music than i ever could sitting at a desk in some college i wouldnt want to be at by being a part of Under Spinning Lights. And though Under Spinning Lights may be over it is not the end for me.
This is only the beginning. I have had the opportunity jam with a couple of different acts and decided to JOIN A NEW PROJECT. The new projects already existing members have made me feel like home at practice and right off the bat i could tell there was a “chemistry” when we played together for the first time. I’m extremely excited to tell all you guys THIS TUESDAY VIA VIDEO UPDATE the name of the new project i’ve had the honor of getting to be a part of.
I could never forget the memories I’ve made and the people I’ve met through USL and I hope all of those people who chose to support USL will check out the new project. I love you all♥
So i’m not sure what i want anymore. So many variables and turn outs. i just need to stop thinking. I just wish i really knew what is best for me.
“If you love me, then you just need to let me go.”
It’s not that easy. How can I just let you go? How can i forget everything that’s happened and just move on with this? I would do anything to show you things are different. I really hope this makes you happy. Cuz that’s all i really want.
Maybe I’m a dreamer
Maybe I’m misunderstood
Maybe you’re not seeing the side of me you should
Maybe I’m crazy
(Maybe I’m crazy)
Maybe I’m the only one
(Maybe I’m the only one)
Maybe I’m just out of touch
Maybe I’ve just had enough
Maybe it’s time to change
And leave it all behind
I’ve never been one to walk alone
I’ve always been scared to try
So why does it feel so wrong
To reach for something more
To wanna live a better life
What am I waiting for?
‘Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it’s time to change
Maybe it’s hopeless
(Maybe it’s hopeless)
Maybe I should just give up
(Maybe I should just give up)
What if I can’t trust myself?
What if I just need some help?
Maybe it’s time to change
And leave it all behind
I’ve never been one to walk alone
I’ve always been scared to try
So why does it feel so wrong
To reach for something more
To wanna live a better life
What am I waiting for?
‘Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it’s time to change
And maybe it’s time to change
And leave it all behind
I’ve never been one to walk alone
I’ve always been scared to try
And maybe it’s time to change
And leave it all behind
I’ve never been one to walk alone
I’ve always been scared to try
So why does it feel so wrong
To reach for something more
To wanna live a better life
What am I waiting for?
‘Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it’s time to change
‘Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it’s time to change
I just don’t get what you see in me.
you’re all I think about anymore. To be honest I can’t even go one full day without wanting to hear your voice, even if it’s just on the phone for a few minutes. And every time I get a new text message, I open my phone hoping to see if it’s you who wrote me back. And I’m sorry if i text you too much. It’s just talking to you even if it’s about nothing at all is always the brightest part of my day. You always look beautiful and always know all the right things to say. And I know this hasn’t been easy for either of us, but I promise you if you don’t give up on me I can make you the happiest girl in the world. This is once in a lifetime. I won’t let this slip away.

I must speak my mind.
First off i’d like to say thank you to everyone who came down and had a good time at the show today. it was the first show i’ve played since we let go of kenny and i couldnt thank those who stayed with us through everything enough. my band couldnt do what we do without you guys and girls and I LOVE YOU ALL<33
however, this brings me to my second part of my rant.
Today, after my bands set, quite a few kids who have given me a hard time previously, decided to threaten my life, as well as threaten to kick the living shit out of my girlfriend. All because the way i look and the music i play. And to be honest this is really hard to write because i really don’t have any words to express how i feel about it. Since when did music become a weapon? how can i determine the sincerity of ones meaning in a song if i am not in the band or involved in the song writing? also, how can i claim that i am more of a musician than another just because we have different opinions in music style?! For a long time i’ve been listening to people tell me how specific genres are what is killing this music scene and it’s not. WHAT’S KILLING THIS MUSIC SCENE IS THIS WAR BETWEEN STYLES. Last time i checked, every musician is working torwards a common goal…in one way or another, make it in the music industry. If we all decided to lend a friendly hand to each other instead of tearing each other down, we could actually see UNITY in this scene. i think we should understand that even if one doesn’t believe in anothers product, that it is wrong to tear that person down because that person put their heart and soul into that work, and if you believe it or not, it means something to that person.
When USL started for me, i was so excited to make music with my best friends, and make new friends in the music scene. With all this pretentious shit talking, we are only setting ourselves back. Please, lets leave the hate behind and move forward as one scene.
