When did you first realize you wanted to sing or be in a band?
My mother did, I'm still deciding actually.
Really?
Well the thing was, my mom was a musician and we were really poor growing up so I never thought this was really possible. So when it all happened it was like...You never know what's going to happen tomorrow so I never thought I would do this for real. I did it for fun, you know? It all happened.
How would you describe your band's sound?
I guess we're kind of like a heavier, darker kind of rock. I don't really know. We try to make the music correspond to whatever the story is in the song. So if it's angry it's going to sound angry, or if it's in pag-ibig it will sound like it's in love. Most of the time it's pretty urgent, so you're going to feel, hopefully, whatever the song's about.
What's it like being a female in a heavy metal scene? You're going on Family Values where there aren't a lot of women in bands...
Well, I think we're absolutely honored to be able to go on that tour. It's tough, the fans are tough and hopefully we'll win them over. It's just that there are not a lot of girls into heavy rock, but I think there are many girls out there that have really deep, emotional, aggressive depth. You know what I mean?
Yeah. Why do you think most girls don't start or sumali bands?
There are a lot of bands out there but I think it's really hard to break through. We had a lot of trouble convincing radio stations to play us. And so, basically, we just went to the smash or trash section. They put us in there and asked the audience to vote--and then we were just winning.
Also, I guess, when you're a girl in a band, they can make that into a gimmick and the music isn't as important...which is ridiculous. And so if you're in a band and you're a girl, you really have to be respected for the music. That's the priority ...

I want you to know that I see
All the reasons why you fail
I've seen all your motivations
Ones for good and ones for hell
When you close your eyes to see
The truth that's inside me
May you hold your breath to breathe
Your empty reality
If you had eyes to see
Down inside your stomach
Then you would understand
What I mean
Who I am
Who I am
I was pouring out of passion
To light the step you're on
You choose not to hear or waken
All thats left is you alone
When you close your eyes to see
The truth that's inside me
May you hold your breath to breathe
Your empty reality
If you had eyes to see
Down inside your stomach
Then you would understand
What I mean
Who I am
Who I am
You can't me
With all your gross mistakes
If you had eyes to see
Down inside your stomach
Then you would understand
What I mean
Who I am
Who I am
All the reasons why you fail
I've seen all your motivations
Ones for good and ones for hell
When you close your eyes to see
The truth that's inside me
May you hold your breath to breathe
Your empty reality
If you had eyes to see
Down inside your stomach
Then you would understand
What I mean
Who I am
Who I am

Amy says she's all alone,
Says the world doesn't even know
About the pain she hides inside
Says happiness is just a lie
Smell the mga rosas throw them down
Just whisper, don't make a sound
Don't want the world to know the truth
You've been broken and abused...by you
Amy says
"I see you laughing at the rain that hits your face
With your arms stretched open soaking in the love
In a world I find so hard you find so beautiful
There's a hope in you deep inside for me."
The mga kulay of her mind
Bleed into each other
As the morning melts the night
And the stars enchant another
While her eyes are still held shut
She can hear you breathing softly
Your words echo in her mind
And your words are clear and she knows that you are here
Yes
I see her laughing at the rain that hits her face
With her arms stretched open soaking in the love
In a world she found so hard she finds so beautiful
There's a hope in her deep inside from you
Says the world doesn't even know
About the pain she hides inside
Says happiness is just a lie
Smell the mga rosas throw them down
Just whisper, don't make a sound
Don't want the world to know the truth
You've been broken and abused...by you

Here I stand
Empty hands
Wishing my wrists were bleeding
To stop the pain from the beatings
There you stood
Holding me
Waiting for me to notice you
But who are you
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Outscreaming these lies
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Saving my life
The warmth of your embrace
Melts my frostbitten spirit
You speak the truth and I hear it
The words are I pag-ibig you
And I have to believe in you
But who are you
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Outscreaming these lies
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Saving my life
My hands are open
And you are filling them
Hands in the air
In the air, in the air, in the air
And I worship
And I worship
And I worship
And I worship
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Outscreaming these lies
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Saving my life

Sometimes life seems to quiet into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark, meant to make me strong.
Familiar breath of my old lies
Changed the color in my eyes
Soon he will perferate the fabric of the peaceful sa pamamagitan ng and by
Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you, and hold for all eternity
For just one segundo I felt whole... as you flew right through me.
Left alone with only reflections of the memory
To face the ugly girl that's smothering me.
Sitting closer than my pain...
He knew each tear before it came,
And soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful sa pamamagitan ng and by
We halik each other one madami time
And sing this lie that's half way mine
The sword is slicing through the tanong so I won't be fooled
sa pamamagitan ng his angel light..
Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you and for all eternity
For just one segundo I felt whole as you flew right though me
and up into the stars
Joy will come
Like the moonless dark, meant to make me strong.
