Piece of Soul
There's a cut because of lyrics, and i'm not a spammy asshole.
So, I went to a show tonight. Not any show, either.
Saves the Day.
I've been listening to Saves the Day (STD) since i was about... 14.
These guys helped me get through high school with their heart-wrenching, mind-gripping, hyper-inducing r0xx1n4710n.
Seeing them in concert was on my list of "things I would love to do but probably won't get a chance to."
I've never seen a band that I was actually familiar with perform. I, and 70% of the crowd, sung almost every song.
I was up in front, part of some bizarre mad-jumping, horns-throwing, rock-outting orgy.
I got lifted up, and I crowd surfed. I moshed in the best mosh I've ever even seen, much less been in.
I sang my heart out, I sang my voice out, and I sang some fucking more, god-damn my organs.
I had to be told I was bleeding. I swayed and just outright danced in public with no mind to anyone.
Spirit, the little part of me that is energy, joy, and most of all, my spirit (thus the name) was in pure form today.
Not many people have ever seen me like that at all. Not trying to be depressing, it's just, I was that pumped for their entire set.
Saves the Day was the first band to make me sing a love song. STD made me like love songs. I hum their stuff in my head when I'm staring through space thinking of a crush. When "everything seemed a little easier when we weren't one hundred miles apart" <-lyrics, in case you didn't know.
They played one of my all time favorites, (well, they played almost all my favorites, but this one is the one i'm posting)
"Tomorrow Too Late"
/
Light beams through
windows stream into my eyes
my eyes explode like red ballons
as it reminds me of you so long ago
wind blows through
a hole in the roof
brings your perfume like lillies to me
and all I can do is remember you
When was the last time
I held you all through the nigh
feels like a zillion years
and I don't wanna wait more
to find you is to lose you,
what is that for?
tell me
When was the last time
I held you all through the night
Never a worry would run through my heart like a knife
feels
like a zillion years
and I don't want to wait more
to find you is to lose you,
what is that for?
one more night and I might never know who you are
tell me [x2]
When was the last time
I held you all through the night
Never a worry would run through my heart like a knife
When was the last time
I held you all through the night
Never a worry would run through my heart like a knife
tomorrow is much too late
I need you now be my light
tomorrow is much to late
I need you now

This show was definitely the best one i've ever been to.
It took a piece of my wounded and tired soul, and left me a fresh piece of musical nirvana to forever hold its place.
I got my new album purchase signed, and I bought a hoodie. A zip down, like i've been meaning to get.
Black, of course.
This night was akin to a very select number of experiences in my life... all of them special, and irreplacible in my mind.
It's a wonderful thing to have love in your heart, fresh, vibrant love. Not a steady dedication with small rewards and a sense of good things done, but passionate, crazed make-out kind of love.
Music be blessed, and Saves the Day amongst the highest.
Love to those who've felt my heart.
