danielian19 Any time we find that sound that moves us, bringing us to that deeper point of who we are, it is worth loving. In a world were we are moved to forget and pushed to our limits this album sends me back to the heart of who i am. It moves my true self. Knowing this is the last work Kyle will ever be heard doing is heartbreaking but what a gift he left. Wildside is my favorite track to play when i just can't be moved to start my day. It is my motivation! Favorite track: Wildside.

Misery 04:58
I had to kill myself to make room for a better me I tried to be myself, but I couldn't let go of my receipt Well maybe being happy ain't all it's cracked up to be In a world that's full of left or right I'm somewhere in between Not black or white a darker shade of grey you've never seen Can I have some goddamn misery? Are you angry? Are you ready to hang me yet? Are you gonna play me for a fool? Paint me as a psycho tool that should stay locked in the shed? Hey movie star Have they ever seen your scars? Was your little life in the limelight a little too bright for you to see (recognize) who you are Have you seen the darkness at all? We're all miserable We feel invisible We all wanna be, but we're never gonna be invincible I had to kill myself to make room for a better me I️ tried to be myself, but I️ couldn’t let go of my receipt Well maybe being happy ain't all it's cracked up to be Can I have some god damn misery? I've got unfinished sins So you can fill my grave back in Life is gonna cut you down Til you can't make a sound from being Buried up to your chin So take it in your stride Don't be scared to live your life Cuz if life's just a risk Then why not go all in Go on lift up that chin Put some salt in that grin We're all miserable We feel invisible We all wanna be, but we're never gonna be invincible I have to kill myself to make room for a better me They'll tell you be yourself, then they hang on to your receipt Well Maybe being yourself ain't all it's cracked up to be Can I have some god damn misery We're all miserable We feel invisible We all wanna be, but we're never gonna be invincible But we'll stand through it all And we'll be difficult You can call us what you want but the world you'll never use is divisible (x2) I had to kill myself to make room for a better me I️ tried to be myself, but I️ couldn’t let go of my receipt Well maybe I'm not cut out for this fucked reality Can I have some god damn misery? (x3)

Wildside 03:50
Caught your eyes in a crowded room Hypnotized by your cheap perfume We can leave here, just me and you But we don't have to get home so soon Crack a window and catch a glimpse Of concrete towers and billboard hieroglyphs Calling us can you hear the sound So come with me and just don't look down (yeah) We'll step into a different frame (yay yay) Take my hand darling it is okay-yeh-yay-yay We don't need all the fortune and fame, what do you say Let's take a walk on the wild side (Side, side, side, side) Painted lights above city streets Hanging high like neon trees In the jungle no lion sleeps So take a deep breath and run with me Dawn is coming for us my dear But don't you worry don't have no fear For if it all goes up in smoke You and I could always go (yeah) We'll step into a different frame (yay yay) Take my hand darling it is okay-yeh-yay-yay We don't need all the fortune and fame, what do you say Let's take a walk on the wild side Let's take a walk on the wild side Let's take a walk on the wild side (Take a walk on the) 4x (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk) We'll step into a different frame (yay yay) Take my hand darling it is okay-yeh-yay-yay I'll be Tarzan and you can be Jane what do you say We'll step into a different frame Take my hand darling it is okay We don't need all the fortune and fame, what do you say Let's take a walk on the wild side Na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na, hey hey Na-na-na na-na-na na-na hey-yeh yay yay Na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na hey hey hey hey Let's take a walk on the wild side

Suffer 03:47
Said she's calling for the last time That something about us don't feel right So I put the phone down then I screamed til my lungs gave out Well Tell the new boy I say hi Let him know to hold on tight A few seconds with no sound then she said see you around I'd like to wish you well, but then this song won't sell So I hope that you Get hit by a train, and it breaks all your bones Get caught in the rain, and spend every night alone Yea you might think I'm crazy well maybe I'm Just a little insane, cuz I hope that you Suffer, suffer, suffer Now every single story always has to have a bad guy But there is not a person in this world who'd wanna be them, right? I mean nobody wants to be demonized But if nobody wants to receive it I guess I'll take it and own it I got a bone to pick It's sick and twisted you can call me a cynic but I am just a person And right now I'm really hurtin' You treated my heart like a puzzle piece Couldn't figure it out, now it's worthless It was mental abuse with a million excuses just talking to you made me nervous I was breaking down but now I'm breaking out and baby leaving was your greatest service, yea I'd like to wish you well But I'd rather give you hell So I hope that you Get hit by a train, and it breaks all your bones Get caught in the rain, and spend every night alone You might think I'm crazy well maybe I'm Just a little insane, cuz I hope that you Suffer, suffer, suffer She said what's there to live for? I said why don't you give more? She said boy you need to get help I said go fuck yourself Well if my soul is tired and it ends in fire I'll be singing in the angel choir I hope that you Get hit by a train, and it breaks all your bones Get caught in the rain, and spend every night alone You might think I'm crazy well maybe I'm Just a little insane, cuz I hope that you Suffer, suffer, suffer (x4)

Fake Famous 03:54
I see you snap snap snappin' over there Worn out torn out jeans with the bleach blonde hair Four rings, blonde hair she brought the flair Doesn't know shit about shit but she does no that she got some fans Clap clap clap clap clap it up for the man Rocky mountain abs, doing back flips on the sand Make sure they're watching on the gram Doesn't know nothing bout nothing, but he does know that he got some fans Lately I've been so scared that I'm the only person out there That smells the bullshit in the air If you're ready for the paper then you'll never see the green You can follow paparazzi but you'll never be seen They don't save thrones for the drama kings and queens You're smile is contagious but you can't fake famous I see you children sitting bitching on your phones Entitled, staying idle never doing what you're told Thinking someone's gonna give you all the gold No one's gonna save you when you're weak, broke and old Yea they only care when you got the Bennies They just wanna pick at a couple of pennies Soundcloud rappers with your plastic semis Please keep pretending that you're worth a penny I don't have nothing but I love what I have I don't play with fakes so please don't get mad Or maybe do what might be the best story you had When I'm up in lights and used to fucking with chads Lately I've been so scared that I'm the only person out there That smells the bullshit in the air If you're ready for the paper then you'll never see the green You can follow paparazzi but you'll never be seen They don't save thrones for the drama kings and queens You're smile is contagious but you can't fake famous Get off your phones and quit brainwashing kids Fuck you I'm not scared of your digital fists If you need to be liked on an app just to feel love You don't know what love is (x3) If you're ready for the paper then you'll never see the green You can follow paparazzi but you'll never be seen They don't save thrones for the drama kings and queens You're smile is contagious but you can't fake famous

Rise 03:31
A shadow in my mind, I can hear a faint whisper Trying to cover my eyes, painting a different picture To keep me hypnotized, break me down to a wimper But he's feeding me lies, and I'm not a good listener Can you see the clouds seeping over the horizon? Swallowing every town, but nobody seems to mind it I know you're in the crowd because you're safer in hiding No time for silence, it's time to be violent, so take all the quiet and start up a riot now When the thunder cracks the sky We will rise, we will rise, we will rise Or die trying Oh come one come all, and listen to a sermon I speak of the fall for we bare a great burden They're scaling the walls, and it's only gonna worsen It's time to stand tall and open up the curtain When the thunder cracks the sky We will rise, we will rise, we will rise Or die trying Now the thunder cracks the sky We will rise, we will rise, we will rise Oh come one come all, and listen to a sermon I speak of the fall for we bare a great burden They're scaling the walls, and it's only gonna worsen It's time to stand tall and open up the curtain

Paranoid 04:34
It's me again The gins much sweeter now Do you remember when I said I'm losing what I found It's been a week since then I haven't found it yet But I hope I find it soon She hasn't called We haven't spoken much like Like none at all Feels like we're always losing touch See I was ten feet tall And now I'm just a wreck And I know she don't feel it too No I don't wanna go upstairs Cuz there's bad things living up there And it's tearing away at my heart Cuz every time I look around all I ever see are Perfect memories in picture frames Slowly drowning in my tears, they fall like rain You can tell me if I sound insane I'm alright, I'm just trying to be fine Tell me I'm paranoid I call my dad once every week or two to Talk about the bad, he always helps me think things through He doesn't know I'm sad, cuz I can't tell the truth And I don't wanna do that to him or my mom Dancing with my demons I've been dreaming, screaming Shaking as I'm waking I'm forsaken I'm complacent man it's been taking over me Just to keep my sanity, just to keep my decency cuz every single frequency is freaking seeking me No I don't wanna go upstairs Cuz there's bad things living up there And it's tearing away at my heart Cuz every time I look around all I ever see are Perfect memories in picture frames Slowly drowning in my tears, they fall like rain You can tell me if I sound insane I'm alright, I'm just trying to be fine Tell me I'm paranoid If I die before I wake Save my soul for momma's sake Lord I'm not ready to die Let me stay just one more night If I die before I wake Save my soul for momma's sake Lord I'm not ready to die Let me stay just one more night If I die before I wake Play my songs at heaven's gate Lord I'm not ready to die I don't wanna say goodbye Lord I'm not ready to die Lord I'm not ready to die Lord I'm not ready to die Let me stay so I can fix my Perfect memories in picture frames Slowly drowning in my tears, they fall like rain You can tell me if I sound insane I'm alright, I'm just trying to be fine Tell me I'm paranoid It's me again, I'm barely conscious now It might be a sin, but I hate you so so much right now I don't know where you've been But I could use your help and I hope I find you soon I hope I find you soon I hope I find you soon
12.
I never had big things to say All my talk feels small anyway I'm hanging on by these six strings most days Pouring out my heart I'm so afraid And I do it to keep me sane And I do it so I won't break But I do it to make you brave, to make you brave I've been chasing sounds, hoping that they might hear me out I'm screaming out we will not sleep, we will not sleep, we will not sleep There's no rest for a tired soul You'll find me chasing sounds til the day I die So here's a washed up out symphony Call it a broke out masterpiece Baptized in the blood of my misery I can only hope you're listening Cuz then maybe I'll keep my faith Cuz then maybe I might be saved Cuz then maybe I'll make you brave, I'll make you brave I've been chasing sounds, hoping that they might hear me out I'm screaming out we will not sleep, we will not sleep, we will not sleep There's no rest for a tired soul You'll find me chasing sounds til the day I die I don't know if it ever gets better, I don't know if it lasts forever Maybe I'm wrong to be writing this song But I just need someone to sing along, I just need someone to sing along I never had big things to say All my talk feels small anyway We're screaming out we will not sleep, we will not sleep, we will not sleep There's no rest for a tired soul You'll find me chasing sounds til the day I die Maybe I'm wrong to be writing this song But I just need someone to sing along, I just need someone to sing along

I'll Try To 04:34
Throw a coin down the wishing well Fear is spreading like a cancer cell You're getting desperate, I can tell Thinking you should just kill yourself When it rains it pours and you're swallowed up again It always feels like sink or swim I feel you fading, like there's nothing you can do But just sit there waiting, and pray it's over soon I know it feels like god is laughing at you And I can't save you, but I'll try to Maybe you should get some rest You've gotta be strong for what's coming next It might sting but it's for the best We'll make diamond out of this mess When it rains it pours and you're swallowed up again It never feels like you can win I feel you fading, like there's nothing you can do But just sit there waiting, and pray it's over soon I know it feels like god is laughing at you And I can't save you, but I'll try to And if you're weak, I'll carry you home And when you're hungry, I'll fill up your bowl And if you falter, I'll give you my soul And when you go, I'll bury your bones I feel you fading, like there's nothing you can do But just sit there waiting, and pray it's over soon I know it feels like god is laughing at you And I can't save you, but I'll try to

about

Hello friends, family and fans of Carverton

On February 7th, 2019, we lost the spirit and soul of our band, Kyle Yorlets. Although he may be gone, he will live in our hearts forever. Today, we wanted to share our full-length record that we have been working on for the past year. It was a dream for Kyle to have his art shared with the world, and we wanted to honor his legacy by giving everyone a chance to listen and own the record we have worked so hard on for all these months.

Chasing Sounds is an album that has demanded all of our blood, sweat, and tears. We know the only true satisfaction we could ever get from this is if you all love it as much as we loved making it. We’ve been eagerly waiting to release this, and despite the circumstances that we have been up against, we can’t wait for you all to hear what we all have been working on this past year.

The record will tap into emotions one experiences while both in and out of love, while feeling helpless, on top of the world, or simply not caring about anything at all. The themes and lyrics expressed throughout are inviting, but might leave you feeling exposed. We ask you to take a moment to celebrate these tracks, to celebrate the love and dedication Kyle placed within these songs for the people he loved both near and far.

We have decided that before releasing this record on Spotify, Apple Music and the streaming & download world, that we will make this record free for everyone to download with the ability to pay what you want for the record. 50% of all donations will go towards setting up a Scholarship & Foundation in Kyle’s name. We know that Kyle will be chasing sounds forever, and we hope that you will join him and us in that journey.

With love,

Michael Curry, Christian Ferguson and Michael Wiebell.
