About Ex's and Oh's

"Ex's and Oh's" is the lead single from American metalcore band Atreyu's third album, A Death-Grip On Yesterday, released in 2006. It is Atreyu's second single from 2006, but first from the album, as "Her Portrait In Black" was also released, which created for the soundtrack to Underworld: Evolution. The lyrics deal with the former alcohol addiction of vocalist Alex Varkatzas. This song is included on the video game Madden NFL 07 (however, it is edited). It is also a master recording playable on Guitar Hero II as an Xbox 360 downloadable track. A part of the song was played on an episode of Parental Control. The song charted on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, peaking at number 24. It is one of Atreyu's most famous songs, and is a staple of their live set. Varkatzas often uses audience participation when performing the song. An instrumental version was heard in the Universal Technical Institute vignette that aired during Nitro Circus Live on MTV2. The song was featured in the beginning of the eighth episode of the first season of Jersey Shore (TV series), "One Shot." more »

You took me home 
I drank to much
Cause of you my liver turns to dust
Cold rust takes cold creeping cool pain
Do you understand what I need?
When you feel your soul drop to the floor
Like a whole like an open bleeding sore
Then you'll have bleed like I've bleed
Then you'll have bleed this all left

Suck me down, its time rock and roll
Lets hit the bar, lets loose control
One false move you took me home
One false move your all alone

But it looks so good and it feels so nice
I've paid my price
I'll cut you out just to hear you scream,
Get away from me
And I can feel my heart beat racin'
As I realize what I must do
Get away from you

should've turned around like you
Last time I got a taste of you
I should've turned around like you
And I say we're through

You have haunt me like a plague
Weakness, we've worked at
But I digress
After all this
You're just like all the rest

Suck me down, its time rock and roll
Lets hit the bar, lets loose control
One false move you took me home
One false move your all alone

Atreyu

Atreyu is an American metalcore band from Orange County, California, formed in 1998. The band consists of vocalist/lyricist Alex Varkatzas, guitarists Dan Jacobs and Travis Miguel, bassist Marc McKnight and drummer/vocalist Brandon Saller. Originally named Retribution, they changed their name to "Atreyu" (after the character of the same name from the fantasy book/movie The Neverending Story), when they found out that another band from Hemet, California had already been using Retribution. They have released five studio albums: Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses, The Curse, A Death-Grip on Yesterday, Lead Sails Paper Anchor, and Congregation of the Damned. more »
