Signing with Indianola for their first album, And Their Name Was Treason (2005), Scruggs was replaced by Shelnutt in 2006. Later that year the band recorded For Those Who Have Heart (2007) for Victory. They embarked on several tours of the UK and U.S. and played at several festivals, before recording and releasing Homesick (2009). While promoting Homesick on tour, Denney was replaced by Skaff.

In 2011, the band was involved in a lawsuit with Victory over their recording contract, which was settled in October 2013. The band released their fifth album, Common Courtesy (2013), the same month.

Your Way With Words Is Through Silence
A Day to Remember Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You make it seem so easy to love me for who I really am
It'd break my heart, if we fell apart
It'd be so hard to let you go
It'd break my heart, if we fell apart
It'd be so hard to watch you go
As piece by piece I can pick you up off of my floor (off my floor)
It's so crazy how it'd make my week just to hear them mention your name
Is it so hard to understand how you have my right in the palm of your hand?
You're first and foremost, you're always on my mind
Through the songs that I'll sing I'll give you my heart
So let's not dwell on all those things we should of said
As piece by piece I can pick you up off of my floor (off my floor)

If affection spoke louder than words, you'd make me deaf by now
The amount of love you show me through your actions is overwhelming
You make it seem so easy to love me for who I really am
You accept and appreciate me just the way I am
It'd break my heart, if we fell apart
The thought of losing you is unbearable
It'd be so hard to let you go
Moving on from you would be a difficult process
So let's not dwell on all those things we should've said
Instead of focusing on what we could have done differently, let's move forward
As piece by piece I can pick you up off of my floor (off my floor)
I am ready to slowly pick up the pieces of our relationship and work towards fixing it
It's so crazy how it'd make my week just to hear them mention your name
Even the slightest mention of you brings a significant amount of happiness to my life
Is it so hard to understand how you have my right in the palm of your hand?
You have total control over my heart and emotions
You're first and foremost, you're always on my mind

It's fantastic going back to their older stuff and seeing how much they've developed. It's even better that they haven't got better, because they started this damn fucking good

As someone who saw them live on Halloween last year, YES, Jeremy can still scream like this, if not better.

This song touches me. My girlfriend showed me it 3 years ago and said it explained me pretty well since I've had social anxiety all of my life. Seems like things are starting to fall apart now
