For those of you curious about how a song goes from an idea to a recording... there are many steps along the way, but this video was shot during one of the final stages of workshopping Toe the Line before recording it. Just guitar, keys, drums, and one crappy iphone filter. At this point the intention is really just to run through the song and make sure there's nothing sticking out as strange or bad, and also to get warmed up on some still freshly written parts before having to record them! Anyway, we found this footage from way back when and wanted to share it. The beautiful boy behind the drums is Jay Scalchunes from Peru The Band.
Check the video here
You make sure you sure look fine
I'll come home and toe the line
I know men are made of dreams
sometimes dreams are all they see
Paint it black and paint it white
paint it 'til you feel alright
I see color, I see red
I see space between our bed
And we've got a long road
But we've got a burning coal
Sometimes it feels too hot to hold
I hope it never goes
I hope it never goes cold
Able tongues they come and go
sneak right by the radio
if I wake up past my prime
will I feel it every night?
Paint it black and paint it white
pull the blinds and meet the light
I see heaven up above
but I see you and I see love
And we've got a long road
But we've got a burning coal
Sometimes it feels too hot to hold
I hope it never goes
I hope it never goes cold
If I gave my heart to you
would it be a lot to lose?
Even in the light of day
I know nothing gold can stay
Even in the light of day
I know nothing gold can stay
And we've got a long road
But we've got a burning coal
Sometimes it feels too hot to hold
I hope it never goes
I hope it never goes cold

Listen to Moving Out below
I wanna get out of the suburbs
Let my hair grow wild
And find a place I don't need money
Just to raise a child
I wanna die out in the forest
With my face in the earth
And if my daughter never loves me
Then I want it to hurt
I see the city try to swallow
What I used to call home
I see it blanketing the streets
Now they're covered in gold
But in the corners where the light
Never seemed to lay still
I see a group of angry kids
And they're looking to kill!
I see a group of angry kids
And they're looking to kill!
And oh, I see it now
We'll all be moving out
When all the kingdoms fall
We'll finally see it all
You know I used to laugh a lot
With my friends in the dark
And now they only hear the clock
So we don't even talk
And there are diamonds in our pockets
And they're dying to be sold
But if you're searching for the dollar
Then you'll only find coal!
If you're searching for the dollar
Then you'll only find coal!
And oh, I see it now
We'll all be moving out
When all the kingdoms fall
We'll finally see it all
My, my
When will it end?
Just take my hungry body
To the woods again
Show my eyes
The rising sun
Bury me in everything
We started from
I wanna get out of the suburbs
Let my hair grow wild
So I can gather up the earth
And pass it down to my child
