Too Far Gone

Lyrics:
This world will gonna kick you in the face
Sometimes It's best to know your place
Put your head down and get on it

This world will prey upon your dread
Some days you'll wish that you were dead
But you're told that's how it's s'posed to be

The stress will go straight to your head
If you're lucky you'll get ahead
But if it doesn't work out for you
You'll have breakdown in your own living room

Everything's a stymie
No strength to keep on fighting
There's no point in trying now

It's Over
It's Over
It's Over
It's Over
It's Over
It's hopeless now

It's Over
It's Over
It's Over
It's Over
It's Over
There's no way out

It's Over

I'm just a normal guy
Trying to sing some songs about people and life
I think it's called the blues
Or maybe it's rock, you could call it pop too
I just wanna sing my songs
And if you know the words you can sing along
So I upload them online
Just a regular thing for a regular guy

And I paid for a SoundCloud Pro account
And I generate ad revenue
But they didn't send my money to my bank account
So I emailed them to send me my dues

SoundCloud owes me money
So they sent me an email saying they're gonna ban me
And I think it's pretty crummy
I'm just trying to sing some songs I think are cool and funny

They said my account is being removed
For violating guidelines and terms of use
They said I'm abusive, libelous and obscene
Hateful of race and cultural identity
And that I'm permanently banned, never to return
Not entitled to the payments that I earned

But the songs on SoundCloud are degenerate
Mostly about sex, drugs and crime
So why am I considered a threat
They oughta give to me what's mine

SoundCloud owes me money
So they sent me an email saying they're gonna ban me
And I think it's pretty crummy
I'm just trying to sing some songs I think are cool and funny

You know I'm just a normal, regular guy
Just trying to live my life and do what's right
But these snobby European douchebags
Are trying to censor me and stiff me on my cash
I think sometimes the truth is hard to bear
And people would rather pretend than actually really care
But besides all that, I just wanna sing
So if anyone from SoundCloud is listening: suck my dick

SoundCloud owes me money
So they sent me an email saying they're gonna ban me
SoundCloud owes me money
So they sent me an email saying they're gonna ban me
SoundCloud, SoundCloud
SoundCloud, SoundCloud where's my money?
SoundCloud, give me my money
SoundCloud, SoundCloud, suck my dick
Suck my dick SoundCloud

SoundCloud Owes Me Money So They Sent Me An Email Saying They're Gonna Ban Me

About Atlas Genius-
The members of Adelaide, Australia’s Atlas Genius do things a little differently….They set about building a studio where they could write and record music for their newly formed band 3 years before they even played their first live show as Atlas Genius. For two years, they devoted their days to constructing their dream studio and spent their nights performing songs by The Police, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones at local pubs to pay the bills. “We really got down and dirty with dry walling and literally laying the floorboards, and at the same time we were taking a couple of days a week to focus on writing songs,” recalls Keith Jeffery, Atlas Genius’s vocalist/guitarist. "We had a lot of song ideas and it was important to us to have our own studio where we could experiment and hone in on our sound," adds brother and drummer, Michael Jeffery. The studio was designed and outfitted by the brothers with the help of their father (who comes from a music and engineering background). Once the studio was complete, the first song that Atlas Genius finished was a song called “Trojans,” which they wrote, recorded and produced in collaboration with their friend, keyboardist Darren Sell. After many weeks tweaking the song, Michael insisted that the song was ready to be heard outside of the studio walls. Within an hour, “Trojans” was on the Triple J Unearthed Website, SoundCloud, and for sale via TuneCore on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify worldwide.

“We had begun to think that music was a pipedream and we had all gone back to university to pursue more realistic careers,” says Keith. “We’d had such a long slog of playing late nights and working all day, and it felt like we didn’t really have anything to show for it.” But then, in the midst of cramming for their Fall 2011 semester final exams, Neon Gold discovered “Trojans” on the Triple J Unearthed Website and wrote a post praising “Trojans” as a song sure to “invade your head, all dressed up in a clever disguise of earnest vocals riding a hooky riff.” Checking the band’s email account for the first time in over a month, the band found that dozens of record labels, publishers, lawyers, booking agents and management companies from all over the world had contacted them.

“We were trying to focus on school, but it was just impossible,” recalls Keith. “So we said, ‘There’s something going on here. Let’s get back to the music.’” The band added manager, Jonny Kaps from +1, to their extended family to navigate all of the interest as the band focused on writing and recording more songs.

Quickly named an iTunes Single of the Week in Australia and New Zealand, “Trojans” reached #4 on Hype Machine by the end of May. In August, SiriusXM Satellite Radio’s Alt-Nation discovered the song on a blog and decided to give it some spins. There was an immediate reaction from listeners, and in September, “Trojans” was placed into heavy rotation, where it maintained a top-five position on the listener-generated Alt-18 countdown and peaked at number one for 4 consecutive weeks in January 2012. “Trojans” began selling over a thousand tracks per week on U.S. iTunes and soon climbed to 45,000 sales - all with zero promotional efforts from the still-unsigned Atlas Genius.

“Knowing we had this audience that was waiting on new songs, we had a much greater sense of purpose than we had before,” says Keith. “It was really exciting to know that there were people who wanted to hear more of our music.” Although labels were clamoring for the band to come to the U.S. and play a series of showcase gigs, Atlas Genius turned down those offers in favor of staying in Adelaide to keep writing and recording new songs. In February 2012, after months of communicating with numerous labels via Skype, the band chose to travel to the US in order to make their label decision.

“We’d never been to America before,” says Keith. “We flew in at night and saw this sea of lights, and it really became apparent to us how massive the U.S. is. It was pretty intimidating - like ‘How do we fit into all this?’” In April 2012, the band returned to the states having made their decision to sign with Warner Bros. Records. “We felt a connection with them,” notes Keith. “Everyone there feels very creative and dedicated to the music.”

The band’s first release from their new label home, the EP Through The Glass (produced, engineered and mixed by the band), came out in June of 2012. With Through The Glass completed, Atlas Genius then holed up in its studio and worked on writing and recording its first full-length album, while at the same time rehearsing for their first ever tour. The tour started in August 2012 and led to three more tours back to back taking them thru to the end of the year. Thus, their full-length debut was finished up between tour dates and got completed just before Christmas 2012. When It Was Now is set for a US release on February 19th, 2013, with an international release to follow soon after.

The debut captures Atlas Genius’s singular combination of sophisticated musicality and warm, wistful spirit. Infused with a classic sensibility, each of the songs would fit seamlessly if somehow slipped into a long-treasured mixtape. On the shimmering “Symptoms,” for instance, taut keyboard riffs mesh with urgent acoustic strumming before the band bursts into a gently frenetic, guitar-drenched chorus. Meanwhile, “Back Seat” blends its pulsing bass throb with a sweetly infectious beat and tender vocals that alternately soar and sigh. And on “Trojans,” Atlas Genius begins with a restrained guitar melody and vocal (“Take it off, take it in/Take off all the thoughts of what we’ve been”) before giving way to the handclap-accented, harmony-soaked refrain and lush yet kinetic bridge.

“It’s still surreal,” says Keith of all that’s happened over the past 18 months. “I think when we were very young, we had hopes that something like this might happen one day,” he continues. (Thanks largely to encouragement from their Beatles fanatic parents, who encouraged the brothers to begin playing music by age 14.) “But then you grow up a bit and it seems less and less likely. So when we put ‘Trojans’ out, we figured it would be a success if maybe a hundred people heard it. We don’t want to force our music onto anyone. Our goal is to write songs that we love and we hope they connect with other people too.”

I don't wanna go home 
I don't wanna fight 
I just want to stare (tear) into your eyes 

I don't wanna give up 
I don't wanna try 
I don't wanna be here 
Stuck in a new year 

I don't wanna get drunk 
I don't wanna get high 
I just want to feel some things sometimes 

I don't wanna grow old 
I don't wanna die 
I don't wanna be here 
Stuck in a new year 

I'm stuck

2014

i lay awake at night
'cause i don't feel alright
i'm not gonna get any better
not now, not fucking ever
so i curl up into a ball
try to forget who i am at all
then i'll just stare at my bedroom wall

3 am and i'm sad again
i just want this pain to come to an end

tears start to fill my eyes
no one is here to see me cry
oh why do i deserve this?
i feel so fucking worthless
nobody lies by my side
can't see the hell i try to hide
as i sleep inside my cell i dream of suicide
