Stay True

Eight years ago I was in my last year of high school. I had grown up a pop punk kid, I was obsessed with Blink 182, Sum 41, The Ataris, NOFX and Lagwagon. A couple of years before I had dabbled with expanding my knowledge of the scene by listening to a band called Taking Back Sunday, which I had enjoyed but not pursued beyond that. Musically 2004 was a dark time for me, Hoobastank records were in my CD player as I sung along to "The Reason" thinking I was the coolest motherfucker ever.
