- We all live in the tropical paradise of America known as New Jersey. Here, a pizza is a pie, there is a diner around every corner, and there are more bands than people and cars put together.
- Vlad and Matei are brothers from Romania. And Misha is an ambassador from mother Russia.
- Dan DiLiberto is the only member of the band born in the US.
- Vital information: Misha (Lead Vox/ Rhythm Guitar); Vlad (Lead Guitar/Vox); Matei, (Bass/Vox); Dan (Drums)
- We played our first show March 27th, 2003 and still have the entry bracelet, one day hoping to sell it on E-Bay for massive amounts of money.
- We have played shows that we booked/organized ourselves ever since, making a plethora of friends but also having bands argue with us over thirty dollars that they obviously deserved to get paid for bringing their girlfriends to the show.
- We tend to make jokes that only we think are funny on stage and off.
- After searching for a label that suits our style of music and doesnt mind our ogre-like looks, we signed to Doghouse Records, who is also home to amazing people that write amazing music such as The Honorary Title, Limbeck and Meg & Dia . Also let us not forget Say Anything, The Get Up Kids, The All-American Rejects, and tons more bands that all began their careers on Doghouse Records.
FIRE THE CANNONS

Between 2010 and 2011 the band was dismantled.
Bittersweet
Jet Lag Gemini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You really shouldn't think about it
Treason is a tar pit
It's so tacky to preserve alone
Can you live like a crow? There's your answer
As you pick at my bones with your friends and
Their barren tongues won't fill your lungs
Love tends to dry
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
In hands that don't try
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
Love tends to dry
(You burn your bridges in the backseat)
In hands that don't try
(And show up widowed on the high street)
Come on, say you've done it
Though we don't have to talk about it
The stains left on the carpet
Scream loud enough for all to know
Do your legs fail the floor? There's your answer
A mistake with a sword needs a ransom
But you've got no jazz to have the cash
Love tends to dry
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
In hands that don't try
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
Love tends to dry
(You burn your bridges in the backseat)
In hands that don't try
(And show up widowed on the high street)
Love tends to dry
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
In hands that don't try
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
Love tends to dry
(You burn your bridges in the backseat)
In hands that don't try
(And show up widowed on the high street)
In a coat for assault, desperate and bleak
Oh, so bittersweet
Love tends to dry
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
In hands that don't try
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
Love tends to dry
(You burn your bridges in the backseat)
In hands that don't try
(And show up widowed on the high street)
Love tends to dry
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
In hands that don't try
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
Love tends to dry
(You burn your bridges in the backseat)
In hands that don't try
(And show up widowed on the high street)
Love tends to dry
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
In hands that don't try
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
Love tends to dry
(You burn your bridges in the backseat)
In hands that don't try
(And show up widowed on the high street)
Oh, so bittersweet
The song "Bittersweet" by Jet Lag Gemini talks about love, betrayal, and loss. The opening lines of the song communicate that even though one may desire something or someone, it might not be the best option. The line "Treason is a tar pit, It's so tacky to preserve alone" talks about how betrayal leaves an everlasting and unpleasant aftertaste. It is better to let go of people or things that could lead to potentially harmful situations.
As the song progresses, the chorus is repeated several times, highlighting that love tends to dry up when it is not nurtured properly. The lines "In hands that don't try, and leave it tangled in the bed sheets" conjure up an image of a relationship that is shallow, lacking intimacy, and unable to sustain the test of time. The lyrics emphasize the importance of putting in effort and trying to keep the love alive rather than taking it for granted.
The lines "A mistake with a sword needs a ransom, but you've got no jazz to have the cash" describe the cost of making a mistake, how one needs to pay a price and redeem themselves. However, in this case, there is no way to undo the damage caused, and the person responsible may not have the resources to fix it.
In conclusion, "Bittersweet" talks about the aftermath of a relationship gone wrong, urging the listener to reflect on how they treat their loved ones and encouraging them to invest in their relationships.
Line by Line Meaning
Even though you want it
Despite your desire for something
You really shouldn't think about it
It's not wise to dwell on it
Treason is a tar pit
Betrayal is a sticky, inescapable situation
It's so tacky to preserve alone
It's tasteless to hold onto something by yourself
Can you live like a crow? There's your answer
If you can survive alone like a bird, that's your solution
As you pick at my bones with your friends and
As you tear apart what's left of me with your pals
Their barren tongues won't fill your lungs
Their empty words won't satisfy you
Love tends to dry
Promises of love often don't last
(And you can find it in a heartbeat)
(Although it seems so easy to find)
In hands that don't try
When someone doesn't put forth effort
(And leave it tangled in the bed sheets)
(Leaving love unfulfilled and tangled like sheets)
You burn your bridges in the backseat
You create problems in your relationships
And show up widowed on the high street
Ending up alone and single in the public eye
Come on, say you've done it
Admit that you've made mistakes
Though we don't have to talk about it
We don't need to discuss it further
The stains left on the carpet
The remnants of past events and choices
Scream loud enough for all to know
Are noticeable and cannot be ignored
Do your legs fail the floor? There's your answer
If you can't stand on your own, that's your solution
A mistake with a sword needs a ransom
When you make a mistake with serious consequences, the price can be high
But you've got no jazz to have the cash
But you don't have the charisma to get the money
In a coat for assault, desperate and bleak
Wearing a jacket meant for aggressive behavior, in a hopeless and depressing situation
Oh, so bittersweet
Emotions and circumstances are both painful and enjoyable

I found an old CD i made in 2010 yesterday and put it in my car, this song was part of the mix. I had to use shazam to figure out what I was even listening to, but here now on YouTube in 2020 it's all coming back to me, the songs, the lyrics, ...amazing.
