Fallen Angels

When we were young, just about EVERYONE was innocent. I mean, I was even innocent at one point... my friends find that hard to believe though! When I was younger, I went to church with my 3 friends; Mia, Greg, and Angie, whom they are all my best friends. And obviously everyone has dreams of being famous, but all 4 of us put out minds to it... I learned to play bass, Greg got drum lessons, Angie got guitar lessons... and Mia... well, she knew how to sing from BIRTH basically.

Anyway! Back to the reasoning of all of this; we all used to be really good kids, we never disrespected anyone, always helped out in some way (note, this is when we were like 6ish) and all the way up to 11 we were like that.

I can't really say what happened... but all I know is shit got MESSED UP! We started acting out like crazy, we pulled pranks, and basically went around LOOKING for trouble. Then we all picked up an instrument (SO DIDN'T HELP!)Surprisingly, it took like 3 years for Mia to go "HEY! You play bass, Angie plays guitar, and Greg plays drums! Let's start a band!" and obviously we were like FUCK YEA! And it took us MONTHS to come up with a band name and we finally agreed upon this: "The World After Torment" and it took us about June of LAST year to finally get our stuff posted.

OK! ANYWAY! Back to the point... we wrote the song "Fallen Angel Society" because we used to be perfect kids... perfect angels. But when we wrote the song, it's because we were practicing and Greg's mom came home and told us that our old pasture, Jim, had asked about us and she told him we weren't the same kids, that we had gotten into trouble a lot and that we had started a band.... After she told him that... apparently, he referenced us as "Fallen Angels" so that's basically where the name came from... the lyrics came from our defiance to the Government, the Church, and everything good and decent basically... well school's about to end... bye everyone!
