Webley tours all over the world. He usually performs solo, but occasionally plays with his long-time band mates - Michael McQuilken, Jherek Bischoff and Alex Guy.
Webley used to stage a theatrical death every Halloween, only to resurrect on May Day of the following year, but in 2005 he discontinued the tradition, claiming he did not wish to die annually again. He owns a Toyota Corrolla, which he's altered and named "The Tomato" and he organized and ran Camp Tomato in April of 2005, with friends and fans known as Tomato Scouts ( in retaliation to the comment that he was a sadistic cult leader. ) Camp Tomato has since been a more or less annual event.
Disappear
Jason Webley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where exactly you fell through
Now you're going to do some time, you don't know, did you cross the line?
Or did the line cross you?
And no one's going to pick you up down here
No one's going to say you're in the clear
You push, you stretch, you rend apart the edges of just what you are
Appetite has gone away, anything else you can say
Bees are buzzing around the hive
A pull-out sofa, some cheap red wine, yeah, you're going to do some time
Just get in the car and drive
And no one's going to pick you up down here
No one's going to say you're in the clear
You push, you stretch, you rend apart the edges of just what you are
And no one's going to see you disappear
In Jason Webley's song, "Disappear", the lyrics ask listeners to reflect on their lives through introspection. The singer encourages the listener to take a step back and analyze their emotions, specifically focusing on their heart and where they may have lost their way. The lyrics also encourage listeners to think about whether they have crossed the line or if the line has crossed them, forcing them to do some time.
The song continues to describe a sense of isolation, with no one to catch the listener when they fall. The lyrics emphasize the idea that no one will see the listener disappear because they are all alone, stretched and pushed to their limits. The last verse describes a lack of appetite and the buzzing of bees, signifying the absence of thriving and vibrancy.
Overall, the song encourages listeners to take a closer look at their lives and to not be afraid of crossing boundaries but to explore them. It highlights the importance of self-reflection and understanding that no one can pick us up when we fall.
