Farewell, My Love has arrived carrying the torch aloft for a new generation hungry for the power, energy and magnetic combustibility inherent in the best rock. The five young men of Farewell, My Love have come together to share their individual hardships, triumphs and passions through a collective vehicle. They’ve taken the sum total of the lives they’ve lived thus far and fashioned them into a unique weapon to hand over to their audiences for the mutual uplifting of all involved.
The conceptual artistry and theatricality of My Chemical Romance, the reckless danger and skillful musicianship of Avenged Sevenfold, the dark mystique and anthem-inducing sing-alongs of AFI and the brash experimentalism and attitude of 30 Seconds to Mars are all components that have a home in the Farewell, My Love manuscript. With forceful determination and wonderfully soaring grandiosity, Farewell, My Love put a unique spin on theatrical hard rock with utmost dedication.
Standby Records was proud to ink a deal with the band and put them into Cleveland, Ohio’s Studio D Productions with producer Don Debiase, who has worked with Modern Day Escape, Beneath the Sky and For All Those Sleeping. The resulting debut full-length "Gold Tattoos" is the type of album that is sure to skyrocket the young quintet.
Ryan Howell’s intense and diverse vocals sit atop the heavy, precise and melodic guitar work of Röbby Creasey and Logan Thayer, all ably backed by the percussive but tasteful rhythm section of bassist Charlee Conley and drummer Chad Kowal. Additional instrumentation, including string arrangements and bells, bolster the band’s guitar-driven rock, adding to the artistic atmosphere on display throughout.
A band with many dimensions from their music, to their lyrics, their stage show, their videos, their image and their concepts, Farewell, My Love present true emotion, authentic passion and pour their hearts and souls into everything they do. Farewell, My Love aspires to nothing less than to be a hill of hope in the flood of life.
Just Another Soul
Farewell My Love Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't care to see you leave
What you're in for now beats jealousy
I'm gone from this wretched place
Just another face
In & out of my head
Scars run down your arms
I'm so lonely & it's killing me
It's tearing me apart
Life is just a game
Says the lady with gold drops filling her hands
Life is just a war
Says the kid who cannot take anymore
Show me paradise where waters fall & fires fly
I can't believe my eyes
You're falling over all the times you lied
Wait for reality
I won't stand & watch you bleed
What you're in for now beats death it seems
Keep me alive I crave the envy
& the rush that caves the empty
Scars run down your arms
To make you feel like something
I'm so lonely & it's killing me
It's tearing me apart
Life is just a game
Says the lady with gold drops filling her hands
Life is just a war
Says the kid who cannot take anymore
Show me paradise where waters fall and fires fly
I can't believe my eyes
You're falling over all the times you lied
Just another soul
Who thinks he's got it all figured out
But...
You're just another sound of a heartbeat
Slowing down
We're breaking ground, we're breaking ground
Just another soul
Who thinks he's got it all figured out
But...
You're just another sound of a heartbeat
Slowing down
We're breaking ground, we're breaking ground
The song "Just Another Soul" by Farewell My Love contains deep, emotional lyrics that explore themes such as loneliness, desperation, and the search for meaning in life. The opening lines of the song - "Feel the wind beneath your feet/ I don't care to see you leave/ What you're in for now beats jealousy" - conjure up images of someone leaving a bad situation and feeling a sense of freedom and relief. However, as the song progresses, it becomes clear that the singer is struggling with their emotions and is haunted by the scars on their lover's arms. The lyrics "Scars run down your arms/ To make you feel like something/ I'm so lonely and it's killing me/ It's tearing me apart" paint a picture of someone who is desperately clinging to a toxic relationship out of fear of being alone.
The chorus of the song ("Life is just a game/ Says the lady with gold drops filling her hands/ Life is just a war/ Says the kid who cannot take anymore/ Show me paradise where waters fall and fires fly/ I can't believe my eyes/ You're falling over all the times you lied") speaks to the idea that life is a struggle, and we each have our own ways of coping with the challenges we face. The image of paradise - "where waters fall and fires fly" - represents a kind of utopia, a place where everything is as it should be. But the reality is that life is messy and full of pain, as evidenced by the repeated refrain of "scars run down your arms".
Overall, "Just Another Soul" is a song that delves deep into the human psyche, exploring themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in a world that can often feel chaotic and cruel.
Line by Line Meaning
Feel the wind beneath your feet
Embrace your freedom and feel alive
I don't care to see you leave
I have no emotional attachments to you
What you're in for now beats jealousy
Your future is better than my present
I'm gone from this wretched place
I am leaving this awful place behind
Just another face
I am insignificant and easily replaceable
In & out of my head
You come and go in my thoughts
Scars run down your arms
Your physical pain is a sign of your worth
To make you feel like something
Your scars give you a sense of identity
I'm so lonely & it's killing me
My lack of companionship is causing me emotional pain
It's tearing me apart
My loneliness is breaking me down
Life is just a game
Life is a competition
Says the lady with gold drops filling her hands
The wealthy woman sees life as a game of accumulating wealth
Life is just a war
Life is a constant struggle
Says the kid who cannot take anymore
The child who has suffered too much sees life as a fight
Show me paradise where waters fall & fires fly
I am looking for a perfect world that does not exist
I can't believe my eyes
I am surprised and shocked
You're falling over all the times you lied
Your deceitful behavior is catching up to you
Wait for reality
Face the truth
I won't stand & watch you bleed
I won't tolerate your suffering
What you're in for now beats death it seems
Your present circumstances are better than death
Keep me alive I crave the envy & the rush that caves the empty
I desire attention and excitement to fill my emptiness
Just another soul
I am another insignificant person
Who thinks he's got it all figured out
Who is overconfident
You're just another sound of a heartbeat
You are just like everyone else
Slowing down
Losing strength
We're breaking ground, we're breaking ground
We are making progress
