About Band:
Since its conception in 1998, DARKFROMDAYONE has been composed of many artists. Now concluding the unique mix of One Angel, a Songwriter, a Schizophrenic Performer, Strings from the heavens, Bass from the clouds of thunder, Metal forged from the earth and the Heart Beat of one young man. Under previous band names such as FIRSTPLACE, SELAH, and SLIP-N-FALL the band has had the honor of sharing the stage with members of EVANESCENCE (WIND-UP RECORDS), P.O.D.(ATLANTIC RECORDS), 10 YEARS (UNIVERSIAL RECORDS), and HASTE (CENTURY-MEDIA RECORDS).
They have made 5 music videos and sold 3,000 cd/dvd combos, had their music placed in two independent films. One titled After Midnight (a documentary based on the rise of EVANESCENCE and the Little Rock music scene) and a movie called Alienated. Their last music video "Escape" won a regional ADDY AWARD for best cinematography this was all done when the band was going by the old name of FIRSTPLACE.
In September of 2006 guitarist/founder Natal John went to Radiostar Studios in Weed, CA to record with Sylvia Massy Shivy (she produced and mixed tracks for TOOL, Red Hot Chile Peppers, S.O.A.D., and Johnny Cash) and one of his other projects HI-TECHHATE. Then in early 2008 DD 1 caught the ear of Phil Taylor (ex-singer of Sony Epic's FUTURE LEADERS OF THE WORLD, now producer/ singer for MACHINA). Their recent CD includes songs recorded at Jupiter Studios in St. Louis, MO where NELLY, STORY OF THE YEAR, and SIMPLE PLAN recorded. Then in the fall of 2008 DARKFROMDAYONE was entered in a contest to have their music placed on a LIONSGATE film called THE PUNISHER War Zone movie. DARKFROMFROMDAYONE ranked in the top 20 bands out of 4,300 national bands to be dubbed an Official Judges Favorite for the contest. Since then the demand by fans increased drastically so DD1 decided to record and produce their own 6 song EP which can be purchased on line at www.myspace.com/dd1rox, www.cdbaby.com, and HASTINGS.
Sincere
Dark From Day One Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and maybe I should find the time, to reinvent myself
and think of someone else and try to walk this paper thin line
I lost my way, I couldn't see through this haze I have seen so far.
I couldn't see you right there with me I think now I have said too much.
How can I be sincere, when everything's unclear
and think of someone else and try to walk this paper thin line
Sincere!!!!
How Can I Be?
Sincere!!!!
Don't think I can be sincere when everything is so unclear
Maybe I should find the time to reinvent and realign myself
Walk this paper thin line, Walk this paper thin lne
The lyrics of Dark From Day One's song "Sincere" talk about the difficulty of being genuine and truthful when everything in life seems confusing and unclear. The singer questions how they can be sincere when they are lost and have not yet found themselves. They also mention the possibility of reinventing themselves and thinking of others, trying to walk a delicate line to not lose themselves in the process. However, the singer seems to realize that they may have said too much and feel that they cannot be sincere at this moment. The song ends with the repetition of the words "Sincere!" and "How can I be?" underscoring the internal struggle of the singer.
The lyrics of "Sincere" highlight the emotional turmoil that a person can experience when trying to navigate life's challenges and maintain authenticity. These lyrics also reflect the broader human experience of grappling with the meaning and purpose of one's life. The song's message reminds listeners that while finding oneself and being genuine can be difficult, it is still essential to strive for sincerity and authenticity.
