We Were Giants

Get Stoked on It! is the debut studio album by American rock band the Wonder Years, released through No Sleep Records on October 30, 2007. The album features guest vocals from Rachel Minton (Zolof the Rock & Roll Destroyer), Bob Wilson (Letxdown), and Brooke Schwartz (CDC). No Sleep released a digital-only reissue of the album on May 15, 2012. The album was remixed, remastered and given a new cover. Commenting on the re-release, lead singer Dan Campbell described the original as a "train wreck", but said since the re-release had been paid for its release was "inevitable". He said about the album, "If you like the record, enjoy the new mixes. If you hate the record, I'm on your side." more »

My time's comin' to an end.
No this ain't some goodbye from suicide, just one last premonition seen.
I just want you all to know that when I pass on to the other side, my job will be to reap up what you sow. And I'll find you every time.

Oh!

Alright folks, here we go.
Strap yourselves in.
Enjoy the show.

I'm awake and everything is white.
Look around and not a thing in sight.
I think that I might have died this night.
A misty fog surrounds me.
In the distance a shadow grows.
You may guess how this story goes.
But it plays a little different though.
A hooded figure's here to let me know that,

I am the one that always seeks out human kind. 
The ones that suck out the blood of every victim forged by design. 
And now the time has come for your destiny awaits. 
You have been chosen to accede me.
It's your ending fate.

Somehow I always knew that this would come to pass. 
A burning feeling deep inside my soul.

This life was nothing but a test.
Prevailed in every single war.
While never cheating your way out through manipulation.
And every revelation had,
I used to keep from falling down.
The only purpose was to recognize the way to succeed through all the trauma and all of the games.
Always never ending cycles through the fires and the flames.
And now they're satisfied, you've passed every test. 
Every entity above me says that I can lay to rest.

So I grab ahold and off we go.
The final moments as the man you know.
I give a smile as the distance shows.
An ending wave goodbye before I go.

As we enter in this place unknown, 
I see a man in red up on his thrown. 
And right beside a place to call my own.
He whispers this is my new home.

And every footstep forward echos grow,
from every fallen foe the reaper knows.
And I accept this is the day I chose 
to stand ready as I look him in the eyes.

Do you accept all consequences of this transition? 
I accept. 

Now take the scythe!
Now is the time for your soul!
To expel and rid the evil!

This may not have been a choice, but you were given a chance to show your presence within the life after death.
The Reaper is what you shook to own.
To give conclusion.
Maintain balance in this world.

My time's comin' to an end.
No this ain't some goodbye from suicide, just one last premonition seen.
I just want you all to know that when I pass on to the other side my job will be to reap up what you
