High speed in a white cadillac getting gas before the dawn loose grip on the steering wheel thinking about the way we used to fall…. we used to fall… mmmm lush pink roses in the fireplace covered up by baby’s breath and ashes blue and pink in the sky above cotton candy clouds are our aesthetic Maybe I’m just jumping in without testing the water tell me that I’m in the good old days before they’re over oh ‘cause now I’m sailing and I’m rolling up a cigarette with starlight hmmm and I’m still waiting cause you said you would pull through after midnight to go fly with me thrift shop sweaters in the springtime leaving school so we can go get faded chasing honeybees, we think we’re sly First thing in the morning, could have waited What the fuck am I gonna do say “no, I don’t think so” cause now I’m sailing and I’m rolling up a cigarette with starlight oh and I’m still waiting cause you said you would pull through after midnight to go fly with me Life’s getting better…. No, it’s never getting better and the only time it’s better is when I fly and I said Life’s getting better…. No, it’s never getting better ‘cause the only time it’s better is when you’re by my side ‘cause now I’m sailing and I’m rolling up a cigarette with starlight oh and I’m still waiting cause you said you would pull through after midnight to go fly and I’m still waiting cause you said you would pull through after midnight to go fly with me

In the night there’s fireflies Didn’t know I was the only one that could see them Guilty kindness, telling lies Didn’t know I was the only one that could free them Macarons and gummy bears We come to life and then we dance in summer air So please don’t go, darling now I need you so Cause alone I wouldn’t live right if I tried And if you stayed, darling I would never change I would just sit and fall to pieces in my mind Oh I’m alive, guess this is life. Fucking up my pillow case In the morning we smoke cigarettes and vibe out to heavy bass. Drinking cola through the day, Know that I would pass out if I let it any other way. Tea and honey, it’s my fault I know that you will fuck me over, but I don’t care at all. So please don’t go, darling now I need you so Cause alone I wouldn’t live right if I tried And if you stay, darling I would never change I would just sit and fall to pieces in my mind Oh I’m alive, guess this is life.

I’m sitting by my window Fueling up on diesel Talking to some of the shallow thoughts in my head It’s 2am and rainy My friends are in the back seat I’m wondering if they know that they’re acting brain dead Maybe I’m just… getting too high ‘cause I know that it’s all in my mind But there’s a voice in my head that’s keeping me up at night don’t know if I can trust it cause it’s leading me left and right and there’s a voice in my head that’s telling me don’t close your eyes they’ll try to cop yours style blow your cover and fill all your drugs with lies baby don’t cry Don’t tell me that you love me I know you’re fucking crazy wait that’s me, I’d drag you down If it meant I could get high I know you don’t wanna see me Like this anymore, well that’s too bad, cause it’s clear that I’m peachy as pie ‘cause there’s a voice in my head that’s keeping me up at night don’t know if I can trust it cause it’s giving me black and white and there’s a voice in my head that’s telling me don’t close your eyes they’ll try to steal your playlist and replace it with the feeling of wanting to die baby don’t cry Baby don’t cry, oh Paranoid and disturbed I don’t deserve Anything that’s coming to me But I know if I change it won’t be the same But I guess that’s a price I gotta pay It’s just a voice in my head that’s keeping me up at night don’t know if I can trust it but it’s putting up quite the fight and it’s a voice in my head that’s telling me if you close your eyes you’ll be safe from hatred, in a place where you might finally get some drive so baby don’t cry baby don’t cry so baby don’t cry baby don’t cry

Novocaine Couldn't numb this pain Of the fire burning deep inside for you Butterflies You're the apple of my eye The one who keeps me pushing right on through We're making tissue paper flowers Hour after hour Folding every single day away People wonder how they get here The colors that we both fear We'll get out and make them say the things they say We should be free Living a life that's full of laughs But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Oh oh, oh oh, oooh Tie up shoes It's what I do Wear black and blue I always knew how people saw me Anxiety Eyes lined with black But in reality The surface is all I wanted them to see Now I'm making tissue paper flowers Hour after hour Folding every single day with you People wonder how they get here The colors that we should fear But we don't We'll make them do the things they do We should be free Living a life that's full of laughs But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Teenage years Dried up tears The time that I spent caring was so long Fireflies, and Bloodshot eyes Staying up at night listening to songs Carefully we move along We should be free Living a life that's full of laughs But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts Doing arts and crafts carefully we, carefully, we move along.

So tell me why I’m sitting in the room Atop my self destruction Staring at the looking glass At four in the morning With a cigarette Hanging from my lips Care Free But they say There’s no way to find yourself Unless you stop your own corruption ______ But we’re gonna try to stay together ‘Till the middle of July But all I really need is to hear Please Baby Stay a little longer ‘Cause I might die here all alone And all I ever want is a purpose for my effort ‘Cause it’s so hard to try harder And I don’t want to go home Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra All those idols, yes, I wonder how they didn’t lose their pride Catching fame like fireflies, Seems to make a person die A little bit inside Maybe I could be the air that you inhale Before a moment Pick me up and breathe me in like nicotine As you say Oh, I could quit at any time When I was young I was told to listen to the words of my chosen components They say The art of losing may seem not too hard to master, but darling, I don’t think you have the time. No no no But all I really need is to hear Please Baby Stay a little longer ‘Cause I might die here all alone And all I ever want is a purpose for my effort ‘Cause it’s so hard to try harder And I don’t want to go home Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra All those idols, yes, I wonder how they didn’t lose their pride Catching fame like fireflies, Seems to make a person die A little bit inside I want to end up like Josephine Baker You can find me up in France I used to listen __________ _________ _________________ But I was young I only had one chance But all I really need is to hear Baby Please, Please Stay a little longer ‘Cause I might die here all alone And all I ever want is a purpose for my effort ‘Cause it’s so hard to try harder And I don’t want to go home Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra All those idols, yes, I wonder how they didn’t lose their pride Catching fame like fireflies, Seems to make a person die A little bit inside Catching fame like fireflies, Seems to make a person die A little bit inside

You’re like that, oh, oh You’re no good You’re no good for me You’re like that Caramel corn that gets stuck in my teeth, like that cotton candy that I’m not supposed to eat, The candies I steal that just taste like buttercream. You’re what I crave when I eat one special treat I’ve got a problem, and it’s one that’s here to stay So don’t give me novacaine, ‘cause it won’t just go away. I’ve got a sweet tooth, I’ve got a sweet tooth For you I’ve got a sweet tooth, I’ve got a sweet tooth for you I’ve got a craving And you’re packed with sugar galore I know I’m addicted, but you’re all that I want and more. You’re not something I can ignore. You’re no good for me I’ve got a sweet tooth I’ve got a sweet tooth I’ve got a sweet tooth for you

Everyday I get through, And knowing when I come home I'll talk to you. And all along, you've been by my side. Yeah you keep me from going to run and hide If one day everything spun out of control, but you're stuck with me, You put up with me. Whooo But I still wonder why I'm feeling so alone. You're too far away now. All the time, you said I'm beautiful, And it puts a big, huge smile across my face. You make me laugh, You say You're beautiful Boy you make me feel like my problems are feeling fates, Whoah But when I don't I see you, there's a big hole in my heart But you come back to me, You always come back to me. But I still wonder why we have to be apart. You're too far away now. We'll be with each other 'till the end, And everyday I get to say that you're my best friend. And every day I start to feel more alone, But you're always there, you just never come home. But sometimes everything spins out of control, But you're stuck with me, You're just stuck with me. And as long as you're here I feel better on my own. 'Cause you're too far away now. Yeah, you're too far away now. You're just too far away now. You're too far. You're too far away now.

I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though she's right beside you? When she says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you? Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie? If what we had was real, how could you be fine? 'Cause I'm not fine at all I remember the day you told me you were leaving I remember the make-up running down your face And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them Like every single wish we ever made I wish that I could wake up with amnesia And forget about the stupid little things Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you And the memories I never can escape 'Cause I'm not fine at all The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around It hurts to know you're happy, and it hurts that you've moved on It's hard to see your face when I haven't seen you in so long It's like we never happened, were we just a lie? If what we had was real, how could you be fine? 'Cause I'm not fine at all I remember the day you told me you were leaving I remember the make-up running down your face And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them Like every single wish we ever made I wish that I could wake up with amnesia And forget about the stupid little things Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you And the memories I never can escape Cause I'm not fine at all If the day came where I woke up right beside you Like all of this was just some twisted dream I'd hold you closer than I ever did before And you'd never slip away And you'd never hear me say I remember the day you told me you were leaving I remember the make-up running down your face And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them Like every single wish we ever made I wish that I could wake up with amnesia And forget about the stupid little things Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you And the memories I never can escape 'Cause I'm not fine at all No, I'm really not fine at all Tell me this is just a dream 'Cause I'm really not fine at all

about

A year ago this week, my friend and I decided to start to undertake a big project - which started with the release of “Egomaniac” on June 11th, 2021.

It was an album that had the working title of “Great Minds Don’t Think.” This title started as an inside joke of whenever we’d do something stupid at the same time - which happened often - especially when we were recording in the studio.

Our 1 year hiatus wasn’t planned, but it wasn’t unexpected.

We were planning on taking all of our old recordings and song concepts and re-analyze and re-record those that we deemed worthy.

This week, we would have been finishing up and releasing our next single, “Starlight.”

When we released “Egomaniac,” I never would have thought I would be writing this post almost exactly a year later.

This album has taken a turn, and is now titled “In Memoriam.” It consists of most of our songs that we’ve written, including drafts and alternative versions, and is in honor of Margaret “Mickey” Vaughan Mairs, the singer/songwriter of our band (Fair Verona)

Mickey Mairs, The lead vocalist, guitarist, and pianist of Fair Verona, was involved in the music community for nearly her whole life. She began piano at three years old, guitar at ten, and singing since the day she could speak. Since Fair Verona’s first album, “Covers and Originals,” Mickey had experimented more with classical singing, such as broadway and musical theater techniques. At fifteen years old, Mickey was already an assistant voice coach for youthful girls looking to develop their voices further. Mickey was in a choir at her high school. She also uses her voice to help address various public issues. While taking frequent voice lessons, practicing piano, voice coaching, she dreams of one day going off to a prestigious music conservatory for college. Mickey’s voice has opened up significantly since the making of the first album, and we wish we could have seen what the “Great Minds Don’t Think” concept album would have been like.

The album is only $10 for 20 recordings plus bonus content (including our entire 70+ page Official Notebook), and you’ll get access to the downloads right away. Otherwise, streaming services might take a couple weeks to publish.

All proceeds will go to her family and to appropriate organizations.

I have a few smaller projects related to Fair Verona that I’m working on, but we’re getting to the end of the road for this project.

Thank you all for an amazing 10 years.
