Into The Spotlight

Shutter Festival

"Limelight Festival," says Milton as he and Liam stand backstage at the last-minute concert pick-up.

"This one is going to be a blast. New song tonight the crowd is gonna love it," says Liam as Milton asks about the song.

"Hey man that song is good did you write that one about Macy," he asks as they have been going strong for three days now.

"Yeah I think she is going to be good for me," he tells Milton as he knows it is about Tessa.

The crowd goes wild as Liam walks out on stage. "We are gonna have a good time today out here at Limelight. I got a new song for you guys and I hope you like it," he says as he prepares to open with the new song.

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"
Yeah, we'll be counting stars

I see this life, like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And in my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and ye shall find

Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

I feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars"
Yeah, yeah

I feel your love, and I feel it burn
Down this river, every turn
Hope is our four-letter word
Make that money, watch it burn

Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

And I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars"

He finishes the song as everyone goes wild at the best and how catchy it is. "Thank you now let's get some original tracks out here for you guys. I know you all love this song," he says as he gets "The Hell Song" started on guitar.

Back home everyone is watching the concert on tv at Matthews house as Ralph makes a statement. "Man, he must really like Macy Meyers to write a song that quick about her," says Ralph as Tessa has doubts about who the song is about.

"You know how my son is with women he will never get married," says Liam's mom as Lauren agrees.

"It's a shame because he is a great funny guy," says his dad as he watches his son rock out. Tessa watches as she misses playing on stage with him. She didn't realize how much effect he had on her until she started missing him.
