Two years after forming, the band made a unanimous decision that it was time to find a vocalist. Ian Parke came into the picture and brought his own unique sound. The band went through two bass players, Chris Clausen and Kyle Salinero, before deciding on Ramon Tancioco III (bass). Since then, the band has played numerous shows and has grown immensely into what is now To Memory and Me.
My Song
To Memory and Me Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dancing in the limelight
How I flicker like sparks in the wind
Tonight I'm a grenade
Guess it's the way I'm made
Getting good at pulling out the pins
Nobody knows
There's a side of me
Now I set it free
Cause there's a whole universe underneath my skin
See how it glows
When I'm dancing to the beat of my own song
Watch me cause I'm shining
Rolling like a bassline
I follow my whispering heart
And I promise to listen
To my inner vision
And I know I'll never fall apart and
Nobody knows
There's a side of me
I'm scared to show
Now I set it free
Cause there's a whole universe underneath my skin
See how it glows
When I'm dancing to the beat of my own song
Nobody knows nobody knows
That there's a side of me
I'm scared to show
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
There's a side of me
I'm scared to show
Now I set it free
Cause there's a whole universe underneath my skin
See how it glows
When I'm dancing to the beat of my own song
