It all started in 2004. My best friend put some speakers up to my ears.
The band that played was called
...
Still Remains -
EP: If Love Was Born To Die (2004)
...
There was one song in particular that caught my eye. Not only was it performed
wonderfully for it's time, but the lyrics were incredibly deep to me at the time.
This is still by far my most favorite song.
...
I Can Revive Him With My Own Hands-
If love was this door, then I've slammed it in your face, ran out to the balcony and jumped to the ground. I've sponged the place in gasoline, before igniting the foundation and burning it to ashes. If love was a plane, then I've flown it to the highest point, only to have it come crashing down to the Earth. Fasten your seat belts, we're going down, we're going down now. If love was a child, then I've scolded him to no end. He's been filled with nothing inside. Until the day when bullets filled the emptiness inside him. From his own gun, from his own hands. Love became the pill that stopped his shakes. He's never crossed a man's face so hard. Love became the pill that put him under, he's never scratched a man's heart so deep. If love was born to die. Then I've buried him six feet under. If love was born to die then I've buried him six feet under. If love was a child, then I've scolded him to no end. He's been filled with nothing inside. Until the day when bullets filled the emptiness inside him. If you take the one and minus him by two, you've got the end of the world, before it's even begun. Although I've murdered his heart, I can revive him with my own two hands.

Over the years, there have been many more bands that caught my eye.
The older I get, the better they seem to get. Anyway, it will always be
a big part of my life, and is one of the few things that nobody can take
away from me. Nobody will ever take it from me.

"When the last grave has emptied,
When the last shred of hope melts away,
An endless swarm of damnation will swallow the last of humanity into black."
