Styling your shroud
Infecting the crowd
Steady letting the fruit of her thrill
Fool you so well
Fictitious styles of living
We've expected to work
But this is all your giving
Half of what your worth
Pigeon hold in battles
Overtones of snow in her clutch
Falling through lines
One more breath destroys the best of you
The death of you
Styling your shroud
Infecting the crowd
Steady letting the fruit of her thrill
Fool you so well
A precious gift embedded deep within your skin
But parasitic pleasures are closer than kin
Please expose your shadows
Such concerns are products of love
Falling in lies
One more fraud destroys our trust in you
Our love for you
Styling your shroud
Infecting the crowd
Steady letting the fruit of her thrill
Fool you so well
As you kiss the abstract
And pray it's everything you'd hoped for
The smell of her, the thrill of her
The fruit of her, the use of her
Is killing everything that you've worked for
The smell of her, the thrill of her
The fruit of her, the use of her
Is killing everything that you've worked for
Styling your shroud
Infecting the crowd
Steady letting the fruit of her thrill
Fool you so well
Smell of her
Thrill of her
Fruit of her
Use of her [x3]
The smell of her
Thrill of her
Fruit of her

10 Years is an American alternative metal band, formed in Knoxville, Tennessee in 2000.
10 Years was initially formed in Knoxville, Tennessee in 1999 with singer Mike Underdown, Drummer Brian Vodinh, Bassist Lewis Cosby, and Guitarists Ryan "Tater" Johnson and Matt Wantland. In 2001 Cosby left the band who soon recruited Andy Parks on bass and independently went into recording Into the Half Moon in the same year, before long recruited current vocalist Jesse Hasek from another local band. In 2002, Parks Decided to leave the band, then former bassist Lewis Cosby returned, to complete the line up that exists today. The band then released their independent album Killing All That Holds You in 2004. 10 Years were then signed to Republic/Universal in 2005 and released their major label debut, The Autumn Effect on August 16, 2005 with the songs "Wasteland" and "Through The Iris" picking up regional radio play. That same summer the band toured with Disturbed and Ill Niño. In the fall of 2005, they toured with Breaking Benjamin and Smile Empty Soul, then followed up with the Masters of Horror tour with Mudvayne and Sevendust. They also opened for Korn and Mudvayne on Korn's See You On The Other Side tour. They recently finished touring with Korn and Deftones on the Family Values Tour, which started in late July 2006.
Mid-2006, the band toured Australia in a lineup which included Hatebreed, Disturbed and Korn
Their first single, "Wasteland" spent over 12 months on the Rock charts, finally reaching #1 at Active Rock in December 2005. In mid February 2006, "Wasteland" reached #1 on both Alternative and Billboard Modern Rock charts. Their first two singles, Through the Iris and Wasteland, have been certified Gold by the RIAA.
