Yard Sale is a band that believes in crunching guitars, screaming vocals, and
scandalous drum fills. But they also believe in hooks. Every one of their
songs, no matter how driving and powerful, focuses on melodic phrasings
that are not easily forgotten.
Producer Joe DiGiorgi heard a Yard Sale demo and was blown away.
He brought the band into the studio and recorded the tracks for an album.
The first song, “My Name”, was completed in March 2005 and was sent into a
contest through the NY Chapter of the National Academy of Recording Arts and
Sciences.The winner was to have the oppotunity to perform in front of a packed
Shimmel Hall at Pace University in Lower Manhattan on Grammy Career Day.
The panel of music professionals who judged the contest chose “My Name” overwhelmingly
and Yard Sale performed in front of 800 screaming high school students and teachers who
became instant fans.
Lyrics - "Saturate"
2004©Trevor Peckham
I’ll never tell, we’ll be the same, we’ll take it down, we’ll play the game
Asking questions you should know
It’s overdone, I’ll let you know, I’ll make it if you let me go
Yelling down to me
Save your, thoughts and it be
You know, you will never see
Saturate
Contemplate
Hear me out
Fear It now
I made it once, I’ll go again, I’ll bring you too if you pretend
You should have clue
My first response I’ll put it on, replace it if you know its wrong
Facing the unknown
Make it, twice of what you’d do
Wait up, running after you
Saturate
Contemplate
Hear me out
Fear It now
Saturate
Contemplate
Hear me out
Fear It now
Lyrics - "My Name"

I can’t fly right now, I can’t fall back down
You say want everything
I saw flying meanings, but looks are deceiving
You won’t take this very far
I’ll tell you why I don’t know my name
Don’t tell me cuz it’s complicated
I’ll tell you other ways I’ve made it
Don’t say it cuz I won’t believe you
Take this scene up right now, interesting you know how
Saving everything you hate
Twice gone, lost a third time, once lost lose an old mind
One more, can it hurt at all?
I’ll tell you why I don’t know my name
Don’t tell me cuz it’s complicated
I’ll tell you other ways I’ve made it
Don’t say it cuz I won’t believe you
Cross the…Don’t know my name
Line to…Don’t know my name
Your side…Don’t know my name
My life…Don’t know my name
I’ll tell you why I don’t know my name
Don’t tell me cuz it’s complicated
I’ll tell you other ways I’ve made it
Don’t say it cuz I won’t believe you
I’ll tell you why I don’t know my name
Don’t tell me cuz it’s complicated
I’ll tell you other ways I’ve made it
Don’t say it cuz I won’t believe you
I’ll tell you why I don’t know my name (don’t know my name)
Don’t tell me cuz it’s complicated (complicated)
I’ll tell you other ways I’ve made it (ways I’ve made it)
Don’t say it cuz I won’t believe you
You, you, won’t believe you
You, you, won’t believe you
Lyrics - "Let It Go"

Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
I had something to prove, you had nothing to lose
I still want all the good things left alone, clouded by the feelings never shown
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
I could have let my life just be the same, instead I turned my sunshine into rain
Trying to make up for what I did, doesn’t mean a thing I’m left for dead
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I had something to prove, you had nothing to lose
I still want all the good things left alone, clouded by the feelings never shown
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
Way to let it go, let it go
Take it down so low, down so low
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
I’m Dyin on you
