This song gives me a pre young and aspiring feel to it

[@Antlion161]

This song was written in their transition period. starting with When The Sun Sleeps (which was actually written last for The Changing Of Times) they started writing more melodic songs to allow the use of clean vocals. after Dallas left most of the songs got re worked into the songs in They're Only Chasing Safety. while the other songs played live at that time (like Coryn's Defeat) have recognizable parts, I have no idea about this one

[@Kevinelevin92]

Prototype "Young and Aspiring"?

But why does it sound so much like Dallas? That's blowing my mind 🤯

[@AllSystmsGo]

I have two ideas about the chorus lyrics, since I wanna know so bad but can’t find it anywhere LOL One idea is about someone you love, now dead, and buried in the earth: “Forever, you’ll shine so bright Between the moonlight and the sun Forever you’ll shine so bright, yeah!” The second is the idea of chasing a maybe, chasing something you were thought to believe was the right thing with absolutely no possibility of succeeding, because you are living a lie and not capable of whatever it is you desire to be, and the heartache that comes with that, with that said, maybe he’s saying: “Forever, your star, so bright - yeah Outshines the moonlight in the night Forever, your star, so bright, yeah!” The thing you want most in life like the bright star is so far out of reach, each night you look up at your shining star you could never obtain. The fire within you is the star, it’s distance is your realizing you’ll never obtain whatever it is that burns within you. Just overthinking old underøath songs that never were 🥴

[@BrianLeverett]

I like your ideas.

[@AllSystmsGo]

@@BrianLeverett I do like those ideas but after listening to it up to my ear it sounds more like “forever yours, sounds so right, for the first time, forever yours, sounds so right, - yeah!”

[@Jawzun]

That chorus part.. doesn't it sound very similar to the one here at 16:41 kzbin.info/www/bejne/anKym56fibF8ibM

[@disluxia]

can you change the title to chasing a maybe - underoath so its easier to search

[@BrianLeverett]

Done! Thank you!

[@GameSaurus]

Is there any studio version of this gem? :(

[@BrianLeverett]

This was a song they wrote during a transitional period. Some of the songs got reworked into the album. Some, like this one, was only played live.
