Sometimes You Gotta Fall Before You Fly - S like Sleeping With Sirens

Do you know this weird but awesome feeling in your chest when you discover new music and you start loving it in the first second? When you just know that this will be one of your favourite bands even though you only listened to one song so far? When I found Sleeping With Sirens, I was about to hit rock bottom, I was really upset all the time and Kellin was the one who could sing me to sleep when nobody else could. I remember finding their cover of Iris [x] and listening to it over and over again while I cried over everything that went wrong back then. I always used to swallow all the things that hurt me or upset me, I used to take all of it out on myself. However, then bands came along - they make me cry on a regular basis and I realised that crying is much more relieving than anything else I used to do. 

When I listened to Sleeping With Sirens for the first time I knew nothing about the members. I didn't know that Justin has a shark tattooed on his hand, I didn't know that Jesse used to have long hair, I didn't (and still don't) know why they make fun of Gabe literally all the time and I didn't know that Kellin is a guy (sorry Kellin, that's very embarrassing). The only thing I knew was that this band would be good for me and looking back to this moment I can definitely say that I was right.
When I'm happy, I celebrate with Postcards And Polaroids, when I need to cheer up I listen to Who Are You Now, when I can't sleep I listen to If You Were A Movie, This Would Be Your Soundtrack. There's at least one song for every mood I could possibly be in. Who Are You Now is the most special one for me though, it just describes me like no other song does. I even consider getting "Sometimes you gotta fall before you fly" tattooed somewhere - I swear to God one day I'll be covered in lyrics because there are so many great ones out there.
Anyway, I really hope I'll get the chance to see Sleeping With Sirens soon because they make me laugh when I want to cry, they calm me down when I'm upset, they're there when I need them so I feel the need to thank them personally.
