about

All of my song titles tie into my lyrics, sometimes slightly and other times abundantly.
Death Blossom is a reference to The Last Starfighter, which happens to be one of my favorite films. In the movie, the Death Blossom is a last resort function built into the ship in case of emergencies.

Now the song itself is reflective of my thoughts on local music.
I have always believed that putting your heart and passion into your music is the utmost important element.
Yeah, catchy melodies and talent do a fair amount in a song, but emotion will sell me every time.
I feel like that message gets drowned out for young bands.

Now anyone who has seen me perform knows that I get into a mode. I lose myself to the moment and that is, in a way, my Death Blossom. Not only is it the greatest feeling for me, but I also mean it to inspire others to get lost in their own.

That's that.

Watch that movie, especially if you're into sci-fi. It has nothing to do with this whole lyric summary, but I do highly recommend it.

lyrics

My drama’s only on once a week
I spend my spare time watching others

Biting success is biding time to live

What’s the foundation to a present love affair?
Why the contraceptives when we’re running low on air?

You've spun a social tension completely from spite

So what if I die tonight?
So what if I pride myself in the fact that I’m pure as a fucking pig?

You’re replaying old tapes of your relapses as the structure protecting you from another collapses

Are you still playing rockstar?
Well I’m still a kid that no one understands

Comments you make always trigger a fit
My style over yours? I’m sick of this shit
Biting success is biding time to live
I’m always screaming to at least one kid

Fellow Rylans: Victory or death

What have we been born into?
I can't tell if I've been blessed or cursed
Because they say ignorance is bliss
And, by God, I think I know too much already

Are you still playing rockstar?
Well I’m still a kid that no one understands.
