Joel Faviere has recorded a new song for Self Harm Awareness Day. Please watch and share.

The War Against Ourselves

Another day alone
Another night
Another knife
I guess I’m on my own
The lights are on
My eyes are closed
And no one understands
The Dark I’m dealing with
And all the people in my life
Are way too blind to see the vice

All these scars
All these scars
From the war against ourselves
The war against ourselves
All these scars
All these scars
From the war against ourselves
I’m livin in a hell
its what is real.

Real, oh I don’t wanna go anymore.

I know that you’re confused
I’ve been there once
I’ve been there twice
The third I didn’t choose
I guess I’m born to lose
The ones that break you down
They look so cool,
Its why I always break the fucking rules
My Synchronized wounds

All these scars
All these scars
From the war against ourselves
The war against ourselves
All these scars
All these scars
From the war against ourselves
I’m livin in a hell
its what is real.

They break me down
I can’t block the sound
So I turn to the one thing
I know will not let me down
People don’t think to ask whats wrong
I stop and go to the beat
of the broken flow in blood

All these scars
All these scars
From the war against myself
I’m a walking hell
I won’t starve myself of the dark
Listen to me scream and shout
but do not say a word.

Jake Pitts of Black Veil Brides Talks Bullying in Interview with Examiner.com

Examiner.com posted an interview with guitarist Jake Pitts of Black Veil Brides recently where he was asked about their fan base and problems that they go through. Check out what he had to say below as well as you can read the entire interview here.

Your fans are so passionate and so loyal. When you say that they tell you their problems, what are they going through?

A lot of them are being bullied. I tell them that you have to find something in yourself, find something you’re passionate about — for me, it was the guitar — and spend your time on that. Find something that will get you through. Middle school and high school, once you’re out and away from it, your life is so much different. The kids that get picked on and bullied are the ones that become successful. They’re talented. Look at us. We were bullied. You look the bullies up on Facebook and they’re working 9 to 5 jobs and they’re not happy; that’s what I’ve seen with the people I grew up with. It seems that the kids who get bullied do something great with their lives

ParaNorman – “You Don’t Become A Hero by Being Normal”

Have you gone to the see movie ParaNorman? Sorry I’m a bit behind the times here as I just found out about it but this definitely looks like a fun movie. Check out the little clip below:

Here’s what is written about the movie:

The movie follows Norman Babcock, a loner who doesn’t fit in with the other kids at school (or his normal suburban family). In fact, he doesn’t really mesh with anyone in his sleepy little town of Blithe Hollow; to all of them, he’s just the weird kid with a taste for the macabre. But what they don’t know is that Norman can communicate with ghosts, and that ability to speak with the undead will come in handy when an ancient witch’s curse befalls the town. Norman gets a spectral tip that he can stop the curse as long as he recites a passage from a dusty old book before sundown — and that’s when Alvin, an obnoxious bully comes along and messes everything up.
