"God... she's a sight for sore eyes."

Yesterday.

------------------------------------------------------------

There's a time and place for everything, and some places those conversations you save for later are conversations that never should be said.

My life is full of nothing. Just simple beating of the drums and hoping something would come out of it, maybe it would, probably not.

At least, that's what everyone usually says. The sound of drums being followed by two base guitarists and singing was the only thing that could be heard in the apartment as a group of misfit kids sat in front of a camera, creating a cover.

"1! 2! 3! Go!"

You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself
You're!

The lead singer, Caitlyn, sang out into the mic that was positioned in front of her.

Carving out a fact from a reckoning! Beckoning your back, skin sagging off its skeleton
Levitating off the ground
Is another man wearing your face!
All the other false identities
Remedies or enemies to mitigate your memories
Shuddered at what they found
When they stripped away the grace!

Her voice was beautiful, absolutely beautiful. She practically was the heart of the group. She makes most of what happens, happen. Her voice was followed by a string of guitarist following the flow of the song and the beat of a drum.

Eulogy or biography
I'm who I oughta be
And that is God to me
Never never never!
So, my God, what's wrong with me?
If who I wanna be might be
Never never never
Never never never
Never never never
No, never!

Two lead guitarists named Joey and Louis created the glue to the group. They were what held us down when things didn't go our way. They are the best of the best when a guitar is in their hands.

They're practically inseparable as well, being the best friends of the group. They were also what you would call, an icon. They were practically in love with each other for years, no denying that.

You'll never take me alive, baby!
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die!
You'll never take me alive, baby!
You'll never take me ali-i-i-ive!
You'll never take me, you'll never take me, and no, you're never gon' find
Somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself!

Damn, I thought you're not your imposter
You're so sure you're not gonna get caught!
Dead in your own skin
But you didn't choose what you were born in!
And add another man to your repertoire
Ready in your head and fed upon your memoirs
Still, the same rules apply
From the birthday to the mourning!
