be real, because a mask only fools people on the outside. pretending to be someone you’re not takes a toll on the real you, and the real you is more important than anyone else.

“[That song]’s mostly a true story,” admits singer Jordan Dreyer in the latest issue of Rock Sound. “A year or two ago, down the street from where Brad [Vander Lugt, drums] and I work, a kid was shot. It’s an area that’s been riddled with gang violence, which has been really sad to witness. It was the son of a lady I work with’s best friend. He was shot accidentally in a drive-by shooting that was intended for the group of people he was getting off the bus with - friends from his school. There were a couple of days where everyone knew who had done it and who had been shot.
There was this weird, eerie calm, and they found the guy in a hotel room on the other side of town. He locked himself in his room and shot himself. That line ‘Can I still get to heaven if I kill myself?’ is something he asked his uncle when talking about what to do.”](http://25.media.tumblr.com/8814f49a5cbacd580f9c47cdcd48a582/tumblr_mm1gkfYB3W1rnoc9wo1_500.gif)

They are just stories, the Mad Hatter is in Alice in Wonderland, a book. A book I actually read. - Stories, stories. What’s a story? When you were in Highschool did you learn about the civil war? - Yeah, of course - How? Did you read about it, per chance in a book? How is that any less real than any other book? - History books are based on… history. - Storybooks are based on what? Imagination? Where does that come from? It has to come from somewhere.
