The band started out as an A Day To Remember tribute band and played numerous shows, before deciding to write their own songs. With the intention to construct its own brand of pop punk/post-hardcore, the band released their debut 8-track EP 'Break These Walls', which has received favourable reviews by its ever-growing fan base. The band gained even more popularity after dropping their own cover of 'Call Me Maybe' by Carly Rae Jepsen on YouTube. For a band still early in its foundations, We Set Signals has already achieved favourable exposure, including support shows with such acts as I Am Villain and Jonah Matranga (USA) The lads bring a care free and naturally energetic live show that engages any audience.

In the summer of 2014, We Set Signals released their debut full-length, Polaris. The announcement for the album came with a new single and music video for the opening track, 'Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost'.

In the March of 2016, We Set Signals started teasing new music via Facebook videos, showing short 15-second clips at a time. They released their first single from their upcoming sophomore album in April 2016, titled 'That's Great, You're Great'. They dropped their second single off the upcoming album later in the year, in the Fall of 2016. The Song was titled 'Remember Me'.

On the 13th March 2017, the band released a teaser video on Facebook, showing a new logo and the quote "Abandon Ship Abandon Hope". Five days later, on the 18th March, the band released a music video for a brand new song titled 'The Disconnect'. On the 21st March 2017, the band announced the released date for the sophomore album would be March 28th 2017. The name, tracklist and artwork of the album were all revealed the same day. The sophomore album is titled "Abandon Ship / Abandon Hope".

The band singed to We Are Triumphant Records in 2017 and the album was then re-released separately in the form of two EP’s, ‘Abandon Ship’ and ‘Abandon Hope’. Both EP’s were released in 2018.

On May 1st 2020, the band released a new song titled ‘Where Were You?’, the lead single from the bands third studio album, ‘Ordo’. Ordo is set for release on September
25th.

We Set Signals Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I question whether I should care
I push myself to the limit when the words aren't there
It's hard to write for such a sinking cause
I second guess my intentions based on my own flaws

Voice in my head is trying bring me down and say
The words I'm writing won't amount up to anything

All of these years I
Have never felt like I could
Find the words
For thoughts I couldn't say
And after all of these years I'm
Still breaking walls in hope
I'll find myself
And forget what had held me down

And I hear what they're saying
I can see the truth in all the games they're playing
And I know, if I could learn to let it go
I'd throw my hands in the air
And I'd tell myself to just bounce
Throw up your hands with me and bounce

Voice in my head is trying bring my down and say
The words I'm writing won't amount up to anything
I'm learning lessons as I trying to grow
It took the best that I had just to let this go

All of these years
I've never felt like I could
Find the words
For thoughts I couldn't say
And after all of these years I'm
Still breaking walls in hope
I'll find myself
Amongst the scars and tears
And keep breaking down
My every thought and fears
And I'll try to forget what held me down

Hope is a feeling
I'm not used to feeling
It's a feeling I know I've never had
And it's Hope that I'm feeling
I'm not used to feeling
It's a feeling I know I've never had
And it's Hope that I'm feeling
I'm not used to feeling
It's a feeling I know I've never had
And it's Hope that I'm feeling
I'm not used to feeling
It's a feeling I know I've never had
And it's Hope that I'm feeling
I'm not used to feeling
It's a feeling I know I've never had
And it's Hope that I'm feeling

I'm not used to feeling
It's a feeling I know I've never had
