Once under contract with Epic, the group released a live EP called Motion in late 1997. In Late-May of the following year they released their first full-length studio album titled Fallout. The album was praised by critics, and the band went on a rigorous, 15-month promotional tour opening for the likes of Creed, Everclear, Fuel, Big Wreck, Stabbing Westward and The Watchmen.
However, the album failed to chart, the tour ended, and the band returned home for a much-needed break. The band also sought new management. It continued as a trio, with Kennedy solely on guitars for a few local festivals throughout the coming year. The three remaining members eventually secluded in Kennedy's basement studio to write and record in preparation for their next album, which was recorded during the fall of 2000.
Their second full-length album, Second Skin, was released in June 2001, and the band went on the road again, this time with Alessandro Cortini on rhythm guitar and backing vocals. Stagnant sales of Second Skin forced the band to end its relationship with Epic in 2002. The band formally split shortly thereafter in order to pursue other interests. Most prominent is Kennedy's participation with Creed members in the band Alter Bridge, for whom he provides guitar and lead vocals. Cortini toured with Nine Inch Nails on keyboards from 2005 onward and collaborated on its latest efforts Ghosts I-IV and The Slip.

Edén
The Mayfield Four Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
god knows we tried
our union so unsure
could never endure
(Chorus)
So we turn the page
say good-bye and walk away
that we worked so hard to save
Brought down by our storm
our eden is no more
but we were so lost in love
that we never found resolve
(Chorus)
So we turn the page
say good-bye and walk away from everything
that we worked so hard to save
I don't wanna start all over and try and find another shoulder to lean on
cause yours made me feel safe
Now you're moving on
this is my blessing
please stay strong
for what it's worth
I'm wishing you the best
The Mayfield Four's song Eden speaks about the end of a relationship which had been tried so hard to maintain but ultimately failed. The union was so unsure that it could never survive the storms that came their way. In the first verse, the singer bids farewell, saying goodbye and acknowledging that even though they tried, they couldn't make it work.
The chorus then comes in, where they turn the page and walk away from everything they worked so hard to save. They are sad to leave, but the relationship wasn't working, and they couldn't be happy there anymore. In the second verse, the singer talks about how their Eden, their paradise, was destroyed by the storm that came in. They were so lost in love that they never found a way to resolve their issues.
The chorus repeats, and the singer speaks about not wanting to start all over again and find another shoulder to lean on because theirs made them feel safe. Finally, they bid farewell to their former partner, wishing them the best in their future endeavors and urging them to stay strong.
Overall, Eden is a touching song about the end of a relationship that didn't work out despite their best efforts. It's a poignant reminder that sometimes, things don't work the way we want them to, and we have to say goodbye and move on.
