Biography:
Silverstein is a 5-piece post-hardcore band from Burlington, Ontario, Canada; formed in 2000. The band name was taken from the famous children's author Shel Silverstein.
After several lineup changes, the band acquired Billy Hamilton, a local fan who learned of the band's need for a bassist on the Internet message board "The 905 Board" (an Ontario area outreach board which used to be for local musicians). In Christmas of 2001, he joined the band after Shane Told helped him learn the music for the songs.

Intro:
F#m
A side of temperance
an appetite for excess
I'm burning down
like your cigarette
Verse 1:
Shane Told : Growl
F#m E
You had me at goodbye
D F#m
I loved to see
you slip away
E D
Staring at a car crash
Josh Bradford Sings backup:
You had me cornered
I lived to watch you
I enjoyed captivity
Shane Told: Sing
F#m
We kill at weddings
E F#m
and live for funerals
We're taking steps on
E D
the water just to show
Shane Told: Growl
D C#m D
We do whatever we want to
Chorus 1: Growl
F#m D
How Did I forget
C# D F#m
who I was
D C#m
Did I forget just
D F#m
where I came from
D C#m D F#m
Did I just lose who I am
D C#m
This is the line I
D F#m
stand A feast of
apathy a shot of angst
Verse 2:
Shane Told: Growl
F#m E D
I carried you away
F#m
I dropped you in the gutter
D D
Just to watch you scream
Josh Bradford: Sings Backup Growls
I brought you to safety
Taking all your blame
Hid you and protected
Shane Told: Sing
F#m
We save with violence
E F#m
and lie with eloquence
We're turning wine into
E D
water with abhorrence
Shane Told: Growl
Dm
We'll save whoever
C#m
we want to
Chorus 2: Growl
F#m D
How Did I forget
C# D F#m
who I was
D C#m
Did I forget just
D F#m
where I came from
D C#m D F#m
Did I just lose who I am
D C#m F#m(hold)
This is the line I stand
Breakdown: Melody became softer
F#m-A-Bm--
Bridge:
F#m A Bm
I'm not so confident
I'm gonna be the one
Who takes the next step
F#m
I'm a cyclone
A Bm
passion overblown
Tied to the tides that
D F#m
pull me in the undertow
Where the wind blows
A
Is where my body's
Bm D (hold)
thrown And I can't fight it
F#m
Maybe we should
A Bm
walk away from this
Take our proverbial
D
walk into the sunset
F#m A
Maybe we are destined
Bm
to be different
We were designed for
D F#m
more resilience than this
But we don't know how
A Bm
and we live in the now
If we were smarter maybe
D
we would try to fake it
F#m
Maybe we should
A Bm
walk away from this
D
And stop being ourselves
C#--
Just stop being yourself
If you want to be happy
Chorus 3: Growl
F#m D
How Did I forget
C# D F#m
who I was
D C#m
Did I forget just
D F#m
where I came from
D C#m D F#m
Did I just lose who I am
D C#m F#m
This is the fine line I stand
D C#m F#m
This is the fine line I stand
D C#m(hold)
This is the fine line I
