The band consists of four members, Josh McQuay as the lead vocalist, Mike O'Rourke as rhythm and lead guitarist, Todd Pitman playing the bass guitar and Jeremy Cole playing the drums. All members made a decision early in their lives to use their skills as musicians. They have also used every opportunity presented to them to strengthen their personalities and talents to make them overall better musicians.
For the first few months of the bands career they were known as Victims Of The Fury. Due to issues with dedication, the groups first months were riddled with uncertainty and doubt. After a couple of member changes the band finally found the correct elements to continue their journey as Hollow Point Heroes. Immediately after their first show as H.P.H. the four friends knew they had something great and that they needed to pursue this dream to its' fullest potential.
Hollow Point Heroes has played venues all over from St. Louis, Missouri to Nashville, Tennessee. Their greatest triumph thus far has been their opportunity to play at one of Missouri's largest music festivals, Pointfest presented by 105.7 the point. In front of a crowd of 5,000 people they proved not only to themselves but to everyone else that they have the potential with hard work to become the greatest rock band to ever emerge from St.Louis.
H.P.H. is not only a band, but a brotherhood standing four strong trying to be heard in this extremely loud world. Their work ethic is unlike any other and their faith in music can never be broken. From drug addiction to broken hearts their songs touch many. Hollow Point Heroes is a standing testament to the people that when staring into even the darkest of times, hard work, dedication and staying true to yourself will always prevail. Follow your dreams, you only live once.
Wasted Time
Hollow Point Heroes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Was a long and empty road ahead
A fiery light
Will lead me through the darkest days and darkest nights
Destination set, I'm well on my way
No more conflicts will keep me at bay
My mission is clear now
It's time to execute the plan
I won't stop ‘til they're singing
I can't stop ‘til they're screaming with me, with me
My heart left on a train today
But my mind and body went a different way
Take some time to clear your mind
And when the sun shines it'll be okay
We'll all live to fight another day
There's no such thing as wasted time
Wasted time
Follow the masses and tip your glasses
To a bright and ever filling world
Of rock star dreams and second chances
Just clap your hands and keep on dancing
The stage is set it's judgment day
The time has come
To make it our own way
Nothing can stop us
And you will see
You will see today
I won't stop ‘til they're singing
I can't stop ‘til they're screaming with me, with me
My heart left on a train today
But my mind and body went a different way
Take some time to clear your mind
And when the sun shines it'll be okay
We'll all live to fight another day
There's no such thing as wasted time
Wasted time
NO I WON'T WAIT
I WON'T WAIT
FOR THE DAY IT ALL FALLS AWAY
NO I WON'T WAIT
I WON'T WAIT
FOR THE DAY IT ALL FALLS AWAY
My heart left on a train today
But my mind and body went a different way
Take some time to clear your mind
And when the sun shines it'll be okay
We'll all live to fight another day
There's no such thing as wasted time
Wasted time

@CaptainMGN
Montage, you messed up something in the lyrics:
"I won’t stop ‘til they’re singing
I can’t stop ‘til they’re screaming with me, with me"
Actually won't and can't are reversed:
"I can't stop ‘til they’re singing
I won't stop ‘til they’re screaming with me, with me"
