In June 2006 they ran into Outlook Music in Denver, CO, who decided to release the CD. The overdue release was slated for early 2007. Their first single "Save Me" was available online October of 2006 and hit radio in the months thereafter.
In late 2009 the band released their second CD, "Souvenirs," on iTunes.
In February 2011, Autovein announced a name change. The band would now be known as Revolution One. Following the name change, the band unveiled a new video for "Suicides & Lullabies". On April 20, 2011 Revolution One joined Biffy Clyro for a show at The Double Door in Chicago.
Revolution One released the Lay Down Our Lives EP on May 3, 2011. 2011.
Out Of My Skin
Autovein Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Breathing with her
You can do this here
What's important
Anymore than
Conquering your fear
I can feel it burn
And I will never learn
How to be sincere
And here we go again
I'm trembling in fear
I'm out of my own skin
Just because you're near
Far from over
Wilting clover
Withering dispair
I will promise
Make my promise
Always to be there
Maybe someday you will see me
I can feel it burn
I know you're somewhere here
And I will never learn
How to be sincere
And here we go again
I'm trembling in fear
I'm out of my own skin
Just because you're near
Maybe some way you will see me
Maybe someday you will see me
I can feel it burn
I know you're somewhere here
And I will never learn
How to make this clear
And here we go again
I'm trembling in fear
I'm out of my own skin
Just because you're near
(Just because you're near)
(Just because you're near)
I'm out of my own skin
Just because you're near
(Just because you're here)
I'm out of my own skin
The lyrics to Autovein's "Out of My Skin" describe a precarious state of mind brought on by being around someone who elicits a strong emotional response. The singer is whispering with this person and feels an overwhelming need to conquer their fear and be sincere. However, they can't shake the feeling of being out of their skin and are trembling in fear. Despite their promises to always be there, they feel far from over and are wilting like clovers with withering despair. The singer acknowledges that maybe someday this person will see them, but until then, they are consumed by their burning and sincere desire to be near.
The words express the sensation of being emotionally overwhelmed, fascinated, and consumed by someone. The burning sensation is intense and all-consuming, representing the singer's yearning for this person. The lyrics also suggest the singer's desperation to be seen and validated by them, but they remain trapped and dislocated from themselves, out of their own skin. The fear of rejection reinforces the idea of being out of their comfort zone, but still very much wanting to be close to this person who has awakened so much emotion.
