Ecstatic Wave is a predominantly acoustic band that decided to record a few of their more popular songs to put on "Experiences" which is an album that's still i
In 2008, Shane and April were introduced to one another and found that although they came from very different musical back grounds, they both shared the same passion for music. April had been writing lyrics/poems about life experiences since age 14, and was just learning to play guitar, while Shane was a music major in college and had previously played drums in several bands including "Quihi Triple Threat.". In the beginning, the ultimate goal for Ecstatic Wave was for Shane to play drums and for April to play rhythm guitar. Of course, that was with the expectation of the duo finding a lead guitarist and bassist, and possibly a keyboardist. As time went on and other band additions flaked out, Shane adapted more to the lead guitar role in the band to fill in the gaps. The two then started playing shows on two electric guitars with no bassist or drummer in hopes that more promising members would come along soon. However, even with the two distorted electric guitars, they were no match for the hardcore bands that they were booked with. In early 2010, Ecstatic Wave decided that it would be best to switch over to playing acoustic guitars until they found a drummer and bassist. However, after playing a few acoustic shows, they experienced some of their best reactions yet, and decided to take their music in that direction.

Story behind the song
This song was written about recovering from a bad relationship.
Lyrics
Watch as the dark clouds roll away Another memory to wash down the drain Oh the tides are so quick to change Catch in view another new face Another chance but how can one know If this will be another bad ending Only time will tell what’s set in stone Only sure of what your eyes can see I take slow steps with my feet on the ground Unaware of what might happen Too afraid it will turn back around A new beginning take it day by day The time has come for us to turn the page Emotions settled on this brand new wave Silence keeps our thoughts safe Just dive in and give it all that you got It’s your wheel to steer so chose your own fate Controlled by someone else’s thoughts Breaking away before it’s too late I take slow steps with my feet on the ground Unaware of what might happen Too afraid it will turn back around Don’t look back just turn away Misery comes from the walls that we create
