Silversteinis a alternative rock band from Burlington, Ontario. The band was formed in 2000 in what they sarcastically called "an attempt to tear down the boundaries between hardcore, emoand punk." While they do incorporate some elements of these genres in some of their songs, the general community considers them to be harder alternative rockwith hardcoreelements; they are often placed in the controversial " emocore" genre, which is disputed by purists who claim emo in its true form ceased to exist many years ago. Silverstein's self description however, keeps them from bearing such a label. Some fans of Silversteinrefer to the group as emoor post-hardcore, yet these labels are not accurate. The band's determination to "break down the boundaries" between said genres prevents them from being so easily categorized.

The bright light beams from her eyes like broken glass. or a broken heart, who would have guessed? youd leave me here. beneath my eyes I feel the tears, I hold back. I wont leave this way again. as my legs start to shake, I feel nothing. I wanted you, I needed you, but you werent there for me this time. I wont leave this way again. you that I loved, that I needed. you werent there. not this time. what can I do? I was supposed to love you. what can I say? I wont leave. what can I do? I was supposed to help you. I cannot feel. last breath I feel, warm air intake. the last summers day, last one I take. I wont leave this way. lost it all for you. when the shadows beam, misery remains. I wont leave this time.
