Biography

Story of the Year is an American rock band formed in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1995. The band was originally formed under the name bigbluemonkey. They changed their name to Story of the Year in 2002 after the release of their EP titled Story of the Year on the indie label Criterion Records, after they realized a blues group of the name 'Big Blue Monkey' had already existed. It would not be until a few years after forming that Story of the Year saw its first piece of commercial success in its major label debut, Page Avenue, containing the popular singles "Until the Day I Die" and "Anthem of Our Dying Day". A second album, In the Wake of Determination, followed in 2005, but did not achieve the commercial success of its predecessor. The band released their third album, The Black Swan, on April 22, 2008, which was their first release on Epitaph Records, followed by 2010s The Constant. On March 8, 2013, it was announced that the band reunited and are planning on a world tour.

LYRICS

The night will come
and rip away,
her wings of innocence through every word we say
maybe it's time,
to spit out the core of our rotting union
hopefully before it chokes
us to our senses.

Guess it's too bad,
that everything we have
is taken away.

Swim in the smoke
the hero will drown
intoxicating beauty tears everything down
but still our hands are
bound at the wrist
this romantic tragedy is suffocating from your fist,
in a sea of fire.

Guess it's too bad,
that everything we have
is taken away.

Hero, Hero, this word you'll never know

Guess it's too bad
that everything we have
is taken away.
Away, away, away. They're taking it away
