Title: “Enigma”
Artist: Alex Simms
Release Date: June 16, 2013
Length: 37:14
Recorded: Orlando, Florida – April – June, 2013
Genres: post-hardcore, pop-punk, rock
Label: Songs to Love and Die By
Producers: Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

‘Enigma’ is the debut studio album from American post-hardcore/pop-punk musician ‘Alex Simms’. The album was written entirely by the still relatively unknown musician with additional instrumental help from a couple of session musicians as well as a helping hand with production coming from ‘Riot! In The Boulevard’ lead singer and label owner ‘Amy Meyer’. The album features nine songs that were recorded between April and June 2013 in a recording studio in the musicians hometown of Orlando, Florida and also features the two singles ‘Golden Hearts Shine Forever’ and ‘Dirty Little Heart’ which both achieved relatively quiet and unexpected chart success, both peaking within a top five position as well as becoming a dance-floor staple in various rock clubs around the U.S, noted for their anthemic choruses and rousing guitars.

Early reviews for the album have come from NME and Kerrang, with NME describing the album as "A surprising blend of pop-rock tunes with meaty choruses and unforgettable hooks" and Kerrang stating, "It's a solid debut which will no doubt add to the promising musicians fanbase, it features a host of perfect soundbite lyrics throughout as well as the occasional scream thrown in for good measure! A short but sweet debut in many ways".

The album features nine tracks and includes a collaboration with fellow rock musician ‘Julia Volkova’ on the track ‘We Are Like Vultures’, the collection comes in at just under forty minutes in length and will be released under ‘Songs to Love and Die By’ records on June 16, 2013.

1. Dirty Little Heart (3:57)

OOC: I don't have as much time to work on this as I'd like so I'm only going to be posting the lyrics to the songs and I'll post them a little later today, I figured if I was to write full descriptions on the songs then it would never get released, hopefully it's still good enough! :)

Julia: I have to say, work with Alex is like drinking absinth and falling asleep on the backyard without clothes and money, he kind of steals you everything and didn't give you back what you once had so you have no other choice but going after him over and over till you get your stuffs back. LOL. I had a blast doing this!

Alex: Yes! all of this may very well be true ... but there's a golden rule of studio etiquette, we don't talk about what goes on in the studio! It was a pleasure to work with you, it was certainly an adventure and an eye-opener! You're quite the talent!

OOC: haha thanks! It's really not much but I'm glad you're looking forward to reading the words that I typed with my fingers! :P

Alex: Thank you, I didn't know that there was such an expectant fanbase! You should have really prepared yourself better Jennifer, it's like running without stretching first, it's just gonna cause some sort of injury! You should probably have a doctor beside you when you listen to it ... or just listen to it in a hospital, there's always loads of em' wandering around looking busy! Good luck though! :)

Title: “Dirty Little Heart”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 3:57
Genre: Alternative Rock, Pop-Punk
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

LYRICS

“I fell for you at the worst time
But I made a vow to make you mine
You made it clear that I’d regret it
Yet I promised you that I would be fine
So you took a chance on me
Throughout the joy and misery
And I can proudly say that I stayed true
But I can’t say the same for you

So just go
The princess turned into a whore
I don’t ever want to see your face again
I don’t wanna think about your cheating heart no more
So just go
Walk out of the door
I don’t ever want to see your face again
I don’t wanna think about your lying heart no more

I’m sure that it won’t take you too long
To find somebody new
I’ll bet lover boy is waiting
Patiently for you!
But I know that one day
You’re gonna be alone someday
And I’ll be all that you can think about
The one that got away

But for now
I may be alone
But I think that’s okay
Because I won’t always be this way
But you
You may have someone new
But I know that someday
He’ll see the real you
Yeah I know that someday
He’ll throw your dirty little heart away

I can’t believe I fell for you
Put up with all the bullsh*t that you put me through
I was stupid to think that I was the one for you
And I can proudly say that I stayed true
But I can’t say the same for you

So just go
The princess turned into a whore
I don’t ever want to see your face again
I don’t wanna think about your cheating heart no more
So just go
Walk out of the door
I don’t ever want to see your face again
I don’t wanna think about your lying heart no more”

Title: “We Are Like Vultures (feat. Julia Volkova)”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 4:34
Genre: Rock
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer, Julia Volkova

LYRICS;

Key
Purple – Julia vocals
Dark Blue – Alex vocals
Black - together

“It’s late at night and I can’t seem to remember how we got here
I took some pills and then everything seemed to disappear
The last thing I remember was my voice and it was screaming out your name
Whether it was through pain or pleasure I don’t know
Because they both feel the same
I open my eyes
And I’m holding your arms tight
Our half-naked bodies are bathing under the moonlight
But when I look at you
I know I’ll be alright

It all started out as innocent fun
Drinking through the pain underneath the setting sun
We’ve thrown the bottles and screamed out each other’s name
In pain and in pleasure
But they both feel the same
It was always a complex love even from the very first kiss
I couldn’t hate or love her more
I just can’t resist

People say that our love has its flaws
They say that we are like vultures digging in our claws
People say we’re both f*cked up and we’ll end up killing each other someday
But we don’t want a timid love
Because it’s better for us both this way
I love you my psycho queen
I love you more when you make me scream

I’m looking at you and I wouldn’t change a thing
You may cut me open and you may let me sting
But I’m not looking for a girl next door
F*ck perfection, you’re all that I’m looking for
I’m looking at you and you’re all that I need
If you ever leave then you’ll see me bleed
Because without you I couldn’t feel alive
I’d cut my wrists and hope to die

People say that our love has its flaws
They say that we are like vultures digging in our claws
People say we’re both f*cked up and we’ll end up killing each other someday
But we don’t want a timid love
Because it’s better for us both this way
I love you my psycho queen
I love you more when you make me scream

People say that our love has its flaws
They say that we are like vultures digging in our claws
They say we’re both f*cked up and we’ll end up killing each other someday
But we wouldn’t have it any other way
We are like vultures
We wouldn’t have it any other way
We are like vultures
Circling our prey”

Title: “Modern Day Romeo and Juliet”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 3:12
Genre: Pop-Punk, Alternative Rock
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

LYRICS;

“This is how the story goes
Each of your friends all turned to foes
The day you fell in love with him
They walked straight out of your life
Refused to let you back in
And you cry a million tears
It still hurts now after all of these years
But you have something they’ll never understand
You found yourself the perfect man

Love is a sunrise shining through a window
Love is a big smile, something they will never know
Love is a life filled with possibilities
Love is like the cure for everyone else to see
Love is a bride walking down an aisle
Love is the feeling when you see your first-born smile
Love is a power greater than man
Love is un-writable
Life’s unexpected plan

You haven’t spoken to you parents for a long time
They hoped that you’d find someone new
They couldn’t see what you see
They can’t see how much he loves you
And they gave you a choice
A hard one to choose
Between Mr. right or mom and dad
And your mom and dad were the ones to lose

It gets tough that they don’t get to see
The woman that their little girl turned out to be
But deep in your heart
You know they’d be proud
If they could see you tonight
They’d sing out loud

This is the modern day story
Of Romeo and Juliet
In all this love and glory
Never meant to be together
Turned to a lasting love
Always and forever

Love is a sunrise shining through a window
Love is a big smile, something they will never know
Love is a life filled with possibilities
Love is like the cure for everyone else to see
Love is a bride walking down an aisle
Love is the feeling when you see your first-born smile
Love is a power greater than man
Love is un-writable
Life’s unexpected plan

The angry looks may still remain
From former friends who stayed the same
Peaked in high school, clear for everybody to see
Never became who they thought they would be
They all live their lives with such regret
Apart from Romeo and Juliet”

Title: “Golden Hearts Shine Forever”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 4:21
Genre: Post-Hardcore, Pop-Punk
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

LYRICS;

“I once knew a girl who had a heart too big for this world
A heart that money just can’t buy
They tried to take it from her
They tried to take it from her!
They tried to rip it from her inside
And she cried and cried in her room after every heartbreak
After every guy that said it would be different
That said it wouldn’t be like the last time
It’s a heartless crime
And this is what I told her

F*ck em’ they don’t know you
And they don’t deserve to
F*ck em’ they don’t know
They don’t know the real you
I’m not the only one, cause if they could see your heart
They’d be f*cking smiling too

She rests alone in bed
Where she overthinks her greatest fears
She places the pillow over her head
Presses it hard against her ears
Just hoping that her thoughts will go away
Like the ringing sounds that she hears every day
And nobody will ever know if she cries
They could just ask how she’s doing
But no one even tries

Well don’t you know that her heart shines bright
Trading the darkness for infinite sunlight
Everybody should follow suit and do this together
Because golden hearts shine forever
Blinding you with beauty and love
It’s a heart that belongs with the angels above

But they all try to mess her around
They all try to drag her down
I’m in dismay and this is what I’ll say
F*ck em’ they don’t know you
And they don’t deserve to
F*ck em’ they don’t know
They don’t know the real you
I’m not the only one, cause if they could see your heart
They’d be f*cking smiling to

Don’t you know that her heart shines bright
Trading the darkness for infinite sunlight
Don’t you know that her heart shines bright
Trading the darkness for infinite sunlight
And she’ll make everybody hold hands together
Because golden hearts shine forever
Blinding you with beauty and love
It’s a heart that belongs to the angels above”

Title: “Is This What You Call A Family?”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 4:58
Genre: Alternative Rock, Post-Hardcore
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

LYRICS;

“Take a look at your tragic life
Is it all that you thought it would be?
Because it seems like you both resent so much
Are you truly happy?
Can you make this work somehow
Put the pieces of your broken love back together
Can you repair those wounds
Stay in this loveless marriage forever

Well don’t just say
That everything’s alright
Kids can see through your bullsh*t
Feel the pain of every fight
Do you ever wonder why they’re so quiet?
Why they lock themselves in their room each night
Do you ever wonder why they’re always smiling
They’ve learnt to fake being alright

All they want is to be innocent a little longer
To believe that love exists and that it can grow stronger
All that they want
Is to feel like things can be wonderful once more
To feel a love that their parents can’t show

But they hear the fights from outside
Lock themselves in their room because it’s easier to hide
So they can cry the pain away
Hope that their parents will fall in love again someday
But deep in their hearts they know
That love ain’t gonna show

I may be older now
But when I look at their faces
I see nothing but sadness and distain
Hatred and pain
And I think to myself
If they’ll ever be happy again

Is this what you call a family?
Because you’ve never looked so sad to me
I wonder if I was the poison that tore you both apart
I wish that I had the power to rid the world of broken hearts
But I’ve never felt so powerless
I can’t even begin to repair this mess
I’ve never felt so powerless
And this has never felt so real to me
Is this what you call a family?”

Title: “Put Your Heart In A Box (Never Let It Go)”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 4:32
Genre: Alternative Rock, Post-Hardcore
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

LYRICS;

“I think you should lower your expectations darlin’
You’ll only wind up disappointed in the end
Because I’m the perpetual screw up
I’m heartless with a tendency to go insane
The names change along the way
But the story always remains the same
The results are in
Well it looks like I’m the one to blame
I’m always the one to blame

Princess, just leave while your heart’s still intact
You aren’t built for this kind of life
I’m afraid I’ll only hurt you
It’s the sort of thing that I always seem to do
So turn and run while you can
Because you aren’t built for this kind of life
I know you thought this could have been something special
But you should have left your heart at home that night

Learn from me
Believe me I know
Put your heart in a box
Lock it up and never let it go

Learn from me
Believe me I know
Put your heart in a box
Lock it up and never let it go

This is for your own good
You don’t deserve this screwed up love
Darlin’ this is for your own good
Leave while you still have the chance
I know that you’re not built like the others
But you still deserve a lasting romance

Learn from me
Believe me I know
Put your heart in a box
Lock it up and never let it go

Learn from me
Believe me I know
Put your heart in a box
Lock it up and never let it go”

Track Number: (7)
Title: “Hollywood Ending”
Artist: Alex Simms
Length: 5:04
Genre: Alternative Rock, Post-Hardcore
Writer(s): Alex Simms
Producer(s): Alex Simms, Amy Meyer

LYRICS;

“I see your face
Everywhere I turn
I look away
It softens the pain
I shrug my shoulders and smile
When they ask about you
I tell them we’re not together
Some dreams just don’t come true

But since we ended this
I can see things more clearly
I don’t know how I stuck around for such a long time
I can’t believe I loved you so dearly
Now you’re just a figment of the person that I fell for
But I don’t see that person
I don’t think she exists anymore

You died such a long time ago
I just kept holding on
I fought for the old you
I didn’t know that she had forever gone
And so with the scars and memories that I carry
I can let go now
Because this version of you
That I see in front of me
Isn’t the person I thought you would be
And I just need to say this
So there’s no confusion
No hidden meaning
And no random illusion

I don’t love you
I don’t love you anymore
I don’t love you
Finally I’m letting go

And so there was a time
When you meant the world to me
I’d have been anybody you’d want me to be
Because I’m not gonna lie
I loved you a lot
But not this version of you
The one that you forgot

Yeah, since we ended this
I can see things more clearly
I don’t know how I stuck around for such a long time
I can’t believe I loved you so dearly
Now you’re just a figment of the person that I fell for
But I don’t see that person
I don’t think she exists anymore

From this day on
There’s no more pretending
Love falls away
There’s no Hollywood ending
Don’t worry about me
I’ll make it through
I’ll be alright
Because I’m nothing like you”
