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 end begins. I cant escape as it pulls me further into anesthesia. tear down my sense of conviction. corrupt my soul. the end begins. in my eyes. in my heart. I have laid upon a deadmans bed, only to fall into a trap of lies and seduction that rivals the greatest sense of love. play it back until the voice becomes just a sound. penetrate my mind with all these images of you. I have given up an angels kiss. only to break apart your path of trust and burn myself down. struggle to the end; I scare myself. Id give it all to have it back. I could have had it all in front of you all by myself. love in my eyes, lust in my heart. I made it all up. lies, deceit empowers me, so it ends.
