Towards the beginning of 2008, So They Say began reconstructing their line up. On February 14, 2008 the band announced that members Nicholas Walters and Justin Hanson would no longer be pursuing a future with So They Say and two original members Joseph Hamilton and David Schroeder remained.
On April 20, 2008, So They Say announced the addition of three new members to restore So They Say to a 'full band' status. Matt Elliott is now on lead guitar, Patrick Blair is now on bass and background vocals and Jim Koplin is now on drums and sampling.
On April 23, 2008, Hamilton announced in a Myspace blog that So They Say will now be known as The Audio and retain the newly-found band line up. It was also revealed that The Audio would not be on Fearless Record's roster but the label would still hold distribution rights to So They Say's previous releases.
The band has since changed it's name once more to "Me Verse You"

So They Say Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mysteries, incredible body hocus-pocus
Truth is, we still don't know what they are
Or where they come from?
I know why I asked you to remember what they said to us
'Cause when I try to run I just shake
I just shake
Don't replace my words with softly spoken phrases
To cover my bruises and cuts
Bruises and cuts
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
I can't catch my breath for long enough to stand up to fight
In a sense we all die
We all die
Everyone's a victim and I am the suspect
The verdict is in and it's all my fault
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
But as soon as I get out of this place
I'll do my best to keep you safe
But if I don't make it out
Please read this and save yourself
The lyrics of "Save Yourself" by So They Say address dreams, victimhood, and the desire for safety. The opening lines pose an existential question about dreams and their mysterious nature, suggesting that science still has much to uncover. The subsequent lines shift focus to the singer's present predicament, one in which they feel powerless to stand up and fight. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer will do what they can to keep someone else safe, but if they fail, they implore that person to save themselves.
The second verse begins with the admission that the singer is overwhelmed and cannot fight back. Everyone, including the singer, is a victim in some way, but the singer has been designated the suspect. They take responsibility for what has happened and accept the verdict against them. The chorus repeats the theme of protection and self-preservation, with the final line driving home the urgency of the request.
