Biography:
Silverstein is a 5-piece post-hardcore band from Burlington, Ontario, Canada; formed in 2000. The band name was taken from the famous children's author Shel Silverstein.
After several lineup changes, the band acquired Billy Hamilton, a local fan who learned of the band's need for a bassist on the Internet message board "The 905 Board" (an Ontario area outreach board which used to be for local musicians). In Christmas of 2001, he joined the band after Shane Told helped him learn the music for the songs.

E G#m B
I wake up in the afternoon

B F#
Long enough to make
E
sure you don't try
G#m B
To turn out anything like me
F# E(hold)
Another fraud, another fake
Chorus:
Ebm E
Don't pretend you're
F# G#m
not the one who's wrong
E
You're keeping me sane
G#m

I wield my heart
