We got to the studio, I don't know why but I was nervous. Just, being in public with All Time Low makes me anxious. I feel like I'm going to be an embarrassment. We went into the studio, there were a couple men there.
"Matt! Phil! Nice to see you!" Alex hugged them. I just stood behind all of the guys and looked around at my surroundings.
"Nice to see you, guys. Rumor has it that you want to record some songs?" one of the two said, the guys nodded.
"Yea, we wanted to fuck around and see if we could make a song or two tonight. Maybe dig up some drafts we had and see if we can make some stuff with them." Alex explained. The two agreed and they went into the studio section. I sat on the couch in the soundboard area while the guys went into the recording room. Zack smiled at me and winked.
"Don't forget to get your work done while you're laying around, haha." he joked at me. I made myself comfy on the couch and took out my bag to start on my math homework.
"I don't believe we've met, I'm Matt, over there is Phil." Matt sat on next to me.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Shiloh. I'm Zack's friend." we shook hands.
"Friend? Or friend?" he chuckled a little.
"Just friends, he teaches me how to play bass."
"Ah, nice. Well, I just wanted to introduce myself. I see you are gonna be a bit busy yourself, but if you need anything let either of us know." he got up and went back to the soundboard. I focused back on the boring numbers on the papers in front of me.
Eventually I finished one sheet, took about 45 minutes. I am done with math, but I have one sheet left. I decided to get up and take a little break. I walked over to Phil and Matt, they were talking to the guys.
"How about a little more drums on the chorus, just go crazy." Phil told Rian. I pulled up a chair and sat near Matt; he looked over and smiled.
"I see you got tired of being over there."
"Yea, a little. Just got bored with homework."
"Understandable. We've been working on this song for a minute, maybe a fresh set of ears might help us." Matt handed me some earphones. I put them on and they started playing. Honestly it sounded really good, if anything it was all overpowering each other. When they finished, I took them off and handed it back to him.
"It sounds like each part is trying to overpower the other part, there's no balance." I told them. Phil looked a little confused before rolling his eyes.
"She's a kid, what does she know?" Phil laughed a bit.
"I asked for her input and honestly I agree with it." Matt defended me. Zack looked over at me and raised his eyebrow before mouthing 'are you ok'. I nodded at him and he nodded back, continuing to glance at me.
"Uh... I guess she's right. Alright guys, maybe tone it down a bit? Everything sounds overwhelming, and nothing is in control. Just a lot of clashing." Phil said to the guys. They were trying to figure out what to do, when Alex added some lyrics.
"I woke up from a never-ending dream
I shut my eyes at seventeen
I lost every moment in between
I felt the sun rise up and swallow me, yeah
And it's all my fault that I'm still the one you want
I'm a liar, I'm a cynic
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I'm a loser, I'm a critic
I'm the ghost of my mistakes
And it's all my fault that I'm still the one you want
So what are you after?
Some kind of disaster"
The lyrics were awesome, I was swaying to the song. Matt looked over and smiled at me.
"Enjoying yourself?" I nodded and kept swaying. The song ended and I looked over at the guys, they were looking at me as if they were asking for my opinion. I put my thumbs up and they all cheered and high-fived each other. They talked for a bit before putting their instruments down and come into the lobby.
"I think we just made a new song, guys." Jack smiled at everyone.
"What are you gonna call it?" Matt asked.
"How about Some Kind of Disaster?" Rian suggested. They all agreed.
"Some Kind of Disaster it is. I love it." Phil grinned. The guys sat around, Zack sat next to me.
"I'm guessing you had fun?" he asked me.
"Yea, I did. I got halfway done with my homework too."
"Nice, you do need to finish up on the rest of that."
"When we get home?" I gave him puppy dog eyes.
"When we get to my house." I sighed and rolled my eyes. He just laughed and put his arm around me.
After everyone was done talking we went back to their house.
