right? i’m 24 and this is my life wtf when I was 16 or 18 I was emo but actually my life was good and now i’m still lowkey emo but adult and everything is ACTUALLY terrible like...hell wtf
He quit due to something wrong with his vocal chords for screaming to much in FFTL he could risk losing his voice if he continued. That’s why he quit FFTL in 06 was it?
Man, this band was something else back in the day. Sonny was only just a teenager and had a pretty impressive range at that. Derek on the drums, good god the drums...man was a beast. Travis as their screamer and Matt as their backing vocalist/guitarist. Good stuff right here. You can tell these guys were intensely influenced by the Emo bands of the 90s (Get Up Kids, Sunny Day Real Estate, Mineral) and the later wave of Post Hardcore bands of the the late 90s (Promise Ring, Jawbreaker, etc). The Post Hardcore run from 2002-2008/9 was definitely a wonderful time for the underground hardcore scene of music.
Sonny was the king of Emo/Post Hardcore vocalists. His pitch was off the charts, and I haven't heard a voice since to be as powerful in terms of what he brings to the table.
I always remember the album art for this album, and it jogs the memory loss of how I’m the only one in my friend group that knows this band exist! This band will always stick for me and it’s 16 years later
+TheGrandWhiteFox holy-mindfuck... I met this band this band in 04-05 at a show with less then 80 people in the audience opening for Team Sleep which was part of DEFTONES( one of the greatest bands in the world) Chino Moreno side project... not a really a fan of Skrillex but my son likes them. Small world
+TheGrandWhiteFox lmao totally just found this out like 20 min ago. Saw from first to last open for Fall Out Boy back in the day...Just saw Skrillex this past weekend. Never would have known he was the lead singer xD
+Christian Ruiz this isn't even skrillex lmao! This was before he fucked his throat up from scream. It was from first to last.. Then sonny more and finally skrillex
[Instrumental Intro] [Chorus] Two roads split off from here And my life goes running in opposite directions Exaggerating the barrier between Who I am and who I want to be! [Guitar Solo] [Verse 1] I wanted to be that breath of fresh air When everything smelled so insincere But this taste still lingers in my mouth, deceit has ways of sticking Around, and I'm ready to disappear, vacation seems far from here [Bridge] Note to self, I miss you terribly, this is what we call a tragedy Come back to me, come back to me Note to self, I miss you terribly, this is what we call a tragedy Come back to me, back to me, to me [Pre-Chorus] I can feel my mind wandering again Into where I don't know, and will I ever get home? Time starts moving faster than I can And I'm sick of this scene, I need a break from routine I can feel my mind wandering again Into where I don't know, and will I ever get home? Time starts moving faster than I can And I'm sick of this scene, I need a break from routine [Chorus] Two roads split off from here And my life goes running in opposite directions Exaggerating the barrier between Who I am and who I want to... [Outro] Which part of me is lost? I feel so close, and yet, I am so far (I am so far!) Which part of me is lost? I feel so close, and yet, I am so far... [Instrumental Outro]
Stevie Grijalva Yeah, i found out that Sonny was only like 16 or 17 on here... & we got to be happy cause Matt got his chance to be the Frontman & Sonny is doing his thing with Korn etc...Man how things can change in the blink of an eye...
***** My daughter was about 15 & we used to listen to it as she was in a band that was always looking up to a band FFTL, & that's what would listen too & get make up tips from, I am 50 next week, And i don't feel it, look it or act it :D
From 11 to 29 years old. Nothing has changed.. mentally, emotionally. Ive accepted my suffocating depression and constant sprint in hopes to a better tomorrow.
Two roads, split off from here, And my life goes running in opposite directions. Exaggerating the barrier between who I am, and who I want to be. I wanted to be that breath of fresh air, When everything smelled so insincere. But this taste still lingers in my mouth, Deceit has ways of sticking around. And I'm ready to disappear, Vacation seems far...From here. Note to self: I miss you terribly. This is what, we call a tragedy. Come back to me, Come back to me, To me. Note to self: I miss you terribly. This is what, we call a tragedy. Come back to me, back to me, to me. I can feel my mind, wandering again. Into where I don't know, and will I ever get home? Time starts moving, faster than I can. And I'm sick of this scene, I need to break the routine. I can feel my mind, wandering again. Into where I don't know, and will I ever get home? Time starts moving, faster than I can. And I'm sick of this scene, I need to break the routine. Two roads, split off from here, And my life goes running in opposite directions. Exaggerating the barrier between who I am, and who I want to be. Which part of me is lost? I feel so close, and yet I am so far. Which part of me is lost? I feel so close, and yet I am so, far!
"Its 2007, beautifull friday afternoon. ur getting off school cant wait to go log into myspace before straighting your hair to go to the comeback kid show tonight with all your friends." :'[
It's 2005. My sister and I would get off the bus, usually with a few friends who had notes to ride the bus home with us as they were staying over. My parents wouldn't be home from work yet, so we'd turn the living room TV on and put it on Fuse and turn the volume way up. Then we'd all gather around the desktop in my kitchen and take turns logging into MySpace.
I remember meeting him outside of freebird cafe in Jacksonville Florida in 2004. I couldn’t get into the show so he hung out with me outside of the venue. No one ever believed me because I couldn’t get tickets and everyone was inside. It was the best show I couldn’t get into. This band hung out with me. Awesome memories. I wish smart phones existed back then.
Pushing 28 and still an emo kid at heart! The passion this specific period in metal/punk history was phenomenal. I miss those high school years that this was much more relevant to, now seemingly only in sentimental retrospect. Wish I still knew people who love this kind of music... Anyone from Seattle here?
From someone who grew up with Sonny, I'll be the first to say I miss the days of guitars, 201 pc on verdugo blvd. random parties, and movies at the LaCanada UA, and Starbucks chillin'. 15 years ago later, ha. Here we are today, different lives, and different paths, but he made it! Haven't spoken to him in years now, but it's cool to point at the tv screen, and say yep.
Dont understand the negative comments about this song... I am far from emo... But the lyrics are amazing... And he put his heart and soul into this song if you ask me.
Well here is the deffinition of emo ... a style of rock music resembling punk but having more complex arrangements and lyrics that deal with more emotional subjects.
Sonny has an amazing singing voice he should use it more often! I love skrillex so much but when I listen to from first to last, it just hits, so emo and amazing, very nostalgic from times that we may never get back.

this song helped me get through and make a difficult decision regarding my future. Then I didn’t know English well and then I just liked the sound, later I read the translation and was incredibly hooked by it. thank you Sonny for the soulful music and lyrics, I come back to these songs when it’s hard and feel hugs
This was never a phase. I found myself much quicker with all the different subcultures (Emo, Metal, Gothic, Punk, Techno, Gabber, Hiphop-) so uncredible, I'm so proud to be myself and just do MY THING. To all the younger ones here, someday u will just find yourself, u will understand someday what u LIKE and what especially U ARE. Pls never change for someone, because U want to be HAPPY at the end !!! < 3
Skrillex is the one on the left.....no the other one.....the one wearing a black t-shirt....no the other one....the one with greasy black hair....no the other...ugh just forget it.
One of my friends let me borrow this cd around when it came out. i remember the first time i ever got really stoned, laid down in my room and listened to this whole album in one sitting lol so good
After Sonny was done with a show at the Croc Rock I saw him outside smoking a cigarette and was too nervous to only say "hey man" my god I miss those days so much
Man, the fact that is the same guy that leaded one of the best emo bands and made one of the best EDM albums it's just CRAZY TALENTED during all these years. Sonny/Skrillex is a national treausre.
