Art often thrives in the aftermath of adversity, and since we last heard from Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, there have been plenty of variables that the five-piece alternative rock act had to endure. But for the Middleburg, Florida-based band, hardships eventually ironed out thanks to unrelenting perseverance, paving the way for the band’s incredibly ambitious (and aptly titled) The Hell Or High Water EP, release August 24th, 2010.
The self-released project comes on the heels of the band’s voluntary parting of ways with Virgin Records, the company that first signed the band for 2006’s gold selling Don’t You Fake It (spawning the smash single “Face Down”), followed by 2009’s Lonely Road (which debuted in the top twenty of the Billboard 200), but eventually became more of an albatross than an anchor for the burgeoning band.
According to the Reap Song facts, the first single from The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus' third studio album, Am I the Enemy?, "Reap", was released via YouTube on March 24 2011, then for download a month later on April 26, 2011. The whole album was released on August 29, 2011.

No Spell
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a place where there's no name
And we learn to appreciate
All the things we take in vain
Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not worried and I'm not afraid
What we have should be displayed
No matter what the others may say
We will always stay this way
Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (This is no spell)
This is no spell
This is no spell
When all the world is gone and dead
I'll still be the one to hold your hand
When all the world is gone and dead
Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (This is no spell)
Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie
This is no spell
When all the world is gone and dead
I'll still be the one to hold your hand
When all the word is gone and dead

Line by Line Meaning
Seem to found a familiar face
I feel like I recognize someone in this unfamiliar place
In a place where there's no name
I am in an unnamed, unknown location
And we learn to appreciate
Being in this situation has taught us to value things we previously took for granted
All the things we take in vain
We used to not fully appreciate certain things, but now we do
Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
I want you to hold on tightly and enjoy the experience of being with me
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
Our time together is limited, so cherish it while you can
It feels right and I know you can tell
I am sure that you feel the same way I do about this
I'm not going to lie (This is no spell)
I am being truthful when I say that this is not some kind of illusion or trickery
I'm not worried and I'm not afraid
I feel confident and fearless
What we have should be displayed
Our relationship is worth showing off
No matter what the others may say
Other people's opinions of us don't matter
We will always stay this way
I am committed to keeping our relationship the same as it is now
When all the world is gone and dead
In the event of some kind of apocalypse, destruction or the end of the world
I'll still be the one to hold your hand
I'll still be there for you, even in the worst of times
