Rocky Votolato

Rocky Votolato (born March 8, 1977 in Dallas, Texas), is an American singer-songwriter. He was raised in a small town called Frost, roughly 50 miles south of Dallas, until the age of 13. After his parents were divorced, his mother remarried and moved the family to the Pacific Northwest in 1991, where he attended Inglemoor High School in Kenmore, Washington.[citation needed] Alienated by his southern roots, the isolation lead him to focusing all of his attention on learning to play guitar and writing songs. Inspired by seeing many punk shows including bands like Jawbreaker and Fugazi, he started several different musical projects while in high school. more »

The city is calling 
Everybody is searching for the keys
To all the prisons that the cruel and kind intention can create 
The boys and girls of winter gather at the end of November
To drink the drops of joys and sorrows from each others dripping trees 

all of life's secrets are in your branches
Make sure it's the truth before you write it down kids 
Stare at the kiss-marks on a spiderman notebook 
Waxy sweetness, to explore every degree of your mental health

much better to pass into that other world
In the full glory of the passions that you found here
Than to fade and wither with age
From watching the flickering light dim in the eyes of the living.

all of life's secrets are in your branches
Make sure it's the truth before you write it down kids
Stare at the kiss-marks on a spiderman notebook
To explore every degree of your mental health
Save up all of your innocence and grow the ripe fruit
To explore every degree of your mental health
