about

andSomeone were already in the process of recording their new album while Bo was shooting a documentary following a policeman in the rough streets of Atlanta, Georgia. While wearing a bullet proof vest for two and a half months in the line of fire, he realized how fleeting life was in that moment. In his hotel room he started writing the melody for Helium For a Dream based on his experiences riding alongside life and death. He sent the song to Michael for a listen just prior to birth of Michael’s first born son. Michael immediately felt a connection and wrote a love letter to his son. The message to his unborn child was, “don’t let them bring you down to reality because life is too short and we might as well dream”. Which “We Might As Well Dream” is now the title of their SECOND album.

lyrics

Change your course if you grow tired
Fill a void, the one you desire
And once you, strike the final blow

Don't look back

Just sail on soldier
You'll live forever

Forever...

You're a hologram made of fish wire
You always seem to get lost
In this little big world

The leaves will change
The stars will grow
You will feed
Be the dragon slayer
Live like you're young
Cry like you're old

Don't
Let them bring you down
to reality

Your veins
Can breed a heavenly storm
To rain down on you

Just sail on soldier
You'll live forever

You're a possibility
You're a shooting star
The clouds may shake
And the earth may break

You're a distant star
But you have it all
Pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet you


You're a distant star
But you have it all
Pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet you
