memories for the dead (rock, member, shows, quote, bands)

this is one of my bands songs. it will probably be the first one we record. tell me what you think

who am i?
what am i?
am i everything i should be?
living everyday moment by moment
regertting the past
while fearing the future
holding on to dying feelings
as they slip away

chorus:
im just a fleeting memory
a photograph faded to black
i have no future left
just an unhappy beginning
kill the lights
kill the sound
its all over now

your face is all thats left to remember
but even it is disappearing
as i scream for one last chance
that i know will never come
just like the old memories wont
roses turn from red to black
and the dead wish for life again

so i say my final line
finish my final scene
and silently walk off stage
withoug the crowd knowing

i don't like the first stanza but after that it picks up nicely. I especially like the tie in to a live audience. i feel the same way sometimes. some of the kids at our shows know songs and even some of my friends have my bands songs quoted in their online profiles but non of them really know what drove me to write it. very deep dude.

sounds Rise Against-ish. is it?

we sorta take after bands more like atreyu, but with some of our stuff you might hear a rise against influence. this song in particular is not though.
