Brandtson
Brandtson was an American rock band from Cleveland, Ohio.
History
The band formed in 1996 and first recorded for a Stead Fast Records compilation entitled Radiowaves and Gibberish in 1997. Soon after the group signed with Deep Elm Records, appearing on their Emo Diaries series before issuing their debut LP, Letterbox, late in 1998. The group quickly issued two more releases, Fallen Star Collection and Trying to Figure Each Other Out ep, in successive years. Dial in Sounds followed in 2002, and the following year the group released a split EP with Camber and Seven Storey Mountain.
In 2004 the group signed with The Militia Group and began working with producer Ed Rose for their fifth full-length, Send Us a Signal, which arrived in 2004. Another full-length, Hello Control, was issued in 2006.
The members of Brandtson, minus Jared Jolley, reformed to the small garage rock project Swarm of Bats. In 2007 Adam Boose opened the audio mastering studio Cauliflower Audio to a positive reception. Vocalist Myk Porter and Guitarist Matt Traxler were originally in the band Six Feet Deep.

Blindspot
by: BrandtsonIt’s hard to see the sun sometimes through these eyes.
It’s hard to see the truth sometimes looking through these eyes.
But yet I try.
Windowsill world of mine.
Maybe sometime I’ll get up and go outside.
Leap of faith.
I could close my eyes and jump.
The hope of someday is safer and it doesn't hurt as much.
Istand at the edge of the world and I cry.
The rain beating down on my face as I try to swallow my fear of failing again.
And wait for the clouds to break for the sun.
Do you remember the time when you said you could see the worry in my eyes?
You don't know how hard I’ve tried to let it go, let it go.
Let it all subside.
Things seem so different when I look into your eyes.
It all seems so simple when I look in from the outside.
Everything seems fine.
You know me better than I know myself.
And I trust you more than I trust anyone else.
But promises broken are promises made.
At least from what I’ve seen it all fades away.
Do you remember the time when you said you could see the worry in my eyes?
You don't know how hard I’ve tried to let it go, let it go.
Let it all subside.
Do you remember the time when you said you could see the worry in my eyes?
You don't know how hard I’ve tried to let it go, let it go.
