2) CAUSEWAY started playing music together back in the late 1990's under the name SIDESHOW. At the start of the new millennium they brought their musical talents to the table when they met Jaime Solis, Pat Croft, Jett Green, and Mark Leslie at an International Caps Tournament in Beijing and they were known as SHIFT, believing they had "SHIFTED" to a new era of music and sound. It was then that Mark left the band and Tim took over as the voice of what became CAUSEWAY. Since they needed a bass player anyway, and Randy was always passed out at The Condo, they put a bass in his hands and found out he could actually play. CAUSEWAY went on an indefinite hiatus in 2004 when Tim went to recording school in Arizona. They played a few shows together since then, with longtime friend Brandon Wilson, and after not playing together for some time, friends and fans stood shoulder to shoulder to watch them acoustic style at Patrick's Irish Pub in Poway on February 7th, 2008. CAUSEWAY is currently working on their recording, which will be out sometime soon.

Pretend That This Feels Right
The song "Hide & Seek" by Causeway is a melancholic and nostalgic ballad about a love that is hidden from the world. The lyrics express the desire to be found and loved, even though the relationship must be kept a secret. The singer pleads for their lover to come and find them waiting, either in the night or in plain sight, and to pretend that everything is alright, even though they know they are lying to themselves. The song is about the pain of loving someone who cannot or will not fully commit to the relationship.
The song captures the frustration and sadness of a love that must be hidden from the world. The lyrics speak to the feeling of wanting to be loved and accepted for who you are, but also the fear of rejection and judgment. The chorus of the song repeats the lines "You're everything I want, but I wish you wouldn't lie when you tell me that you're mine" and "I wish you wouldn't try," emphasizing the conflicted emotions of the singer.
