[They] want to play music all year and meet cool people and make some money and not live with [their] parents. Anything you can do to help with those four things would be greatly appreciated. Especially the third one.
3 records (+1 in the works), nearly 500 shows in 40+ states in under 4 years. [They've] been everywhere, except for the places we're on our way to.
This is us:
Luke - Lead vocals, guitar, piano. Has successfully wrestled polar bears on two separate continents (yes, two!). Supposedly, has received his acceptance letter from Hogwarts, even though the school year has already started. Authenticity of letter has yet to be verified. Can maneuver a van and trailer in reverse faster than Jason Bourne in a Mini Cooper on a Parisian side street. Wins gold medals for outstanding facial hair. Once lost his cell phone 42 times in one day.
Marc- Drums, muscle. Has several tattoos that make him look cooler than everyone else in the band (not that it’s hard to do). Still has health insurance. When sporting a stache, he brings forth the ghost of Freddie Mercury. Voted “Most Likely To Not Fail At Life” by the other members in his band. Believes in and is afraid of "Cubicle Trolls". Expert on centaurs.
Robbe- Bass. Real into sleeping. Came in second place on Nickelodeon’s Global Guts after being blinded by a glitter storm (aka snow blizzard) and hitting his opponent’s actuator at the top of the Super Aggro Crag. Still has a crush on Mo, the referee. Secretly wants to be a speed-cuber (someone who can do a Rubik's cube in like 15 seconds). Will never have an actual girlfriend because of that last sentence. Has a pretty good vertical jump.
Rabbit- Lead guitar, mandolin, background vocals. Good at everything, especially eating candy and drinking Mountain Dew. Can impersonate Nicholas Cage better than Nicholas Cage can impersonate himself or anyone else for that matter. Can also accurately identify almost any make and type of ink pens while blindfolded (this is not a joke). Has great posture.

Farewell Flight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm falling further into you
Your eyes are blinding to my heart
I can't seem to find my way
Decorations and flowers
Dressed up for the occasion
Finally the sky is clearing, and I'm lost without words
So break free from the cords of reason
My heart is an open highway
You have stolen my heart
I'm going to say it for the record, I'm yours now, forever
With one glance of your eyes, one glance of you
With the past now behind us, we're staring straight at the future
I'm left with nothing but all of me to give
I saw you off in the distance, and suddenly, my existence was drawn away from my intentions
Now, you're everything to me
Here's my heart for the taking, left in tears from the breaking
Now all I am is all you are, and I will never be the same
The opening verse of Farewell Flight's song 'Endure' sets a romantic and intimate tone for what follows. The singer is meeting the character they address and is immediately smitten. They say 'Your eyes are blinding to my heart,' implying that this person has come along and captured their heart. However, there is hesitation and a sense of being lost, 'I can't seem to find my way.' All the surroundings of 'Decorations and flowers/Dressed up for the occasion' seem to add to the surreal feeling, as the singer is unsure of themselves and the situation.
The chorus amplifies how strongly the singer feels, and they affirm to the addressee that they are 'ready to be yours completely.' Their heart becomes a metaphor for an 'open highway' and in the next line, they say, 'You have stolen my heart.' This emphasizes the idea that even though the singer is willing to be quite vulnerable, in a sense, they have had no choice but to fall for this person. The line 'My heart is an open highway' denotes that they will give all of themselves without reservations or apprehensions. The final line of the chorus is a declaration by the singer that they belong to the addressee, 'I'm going to say it for the record, I'm yours now, forever.'
The second verse goes on to express that they both have a future together, leaving behind their pasts. The singer is willing to embrace and offer all of themselves ‘I’m left with nothing but all of me to give’. The singer is so drawn to this person that they suddenly lose track of their intentions - this one person has become all-consuming. They offer their heart, which is a poignant metaphor, given that it has left them in tears from the breaking of their past. The final line emphasizes the transformation and the feeling of irrevocable change in the singer, that they will never be the same.
