12 Stones Picture
12 Stones are a hard rock/metal Christian (or at least CMI!) band which formed in Mandeville, Louisiana in the early 2000's. Only after a few months in which the four members, Paul McCoy (vocals and guitar), Eric Weaver (guitar), Greg Trammell (guitar), and Aaron Gainer (drums) jammed together, they were signed up with Wind-Up Records. In 2002, they released their debut self-titled CD along with the hit singles 'Broken' and 'The Way I Feel', while also releasing a live-performance video for the first song on the album, 'Crash' later in 2003 as well as release a full performance of most of the songs on '12 Stones' in a live special entitled 'Broken TV'. Also in late 2002/2003, Paul McCoy joined together with the gothic rock band Evanescence and provided back-up vocals for their successful debut single 'Bring Me to Life' to bring publicity to both bands. (This was actually intended by the record label and not the band 'Evanescence' themselves, since 12 Stones and Evanescence share the same record company) 12 Stones also recorded a song called 'Let Go' for the Daredevil soundtrack, making it lead singer Paul McCoy's second appearance on the soundtrack.

Back Up Lyrics

12 Stones

I hear the words you say to me
I see the way you look at me
I know whats on your mind so
Stand up get up back up now
Just stay away
I know the fear you hold inside
I know whats weighing on your mind
Theres nothing you can do so
Stand up get up back up
Youre reaching out just to be like me
But youve fallen short
Still youre following me
You had the chance to bring me down
But theres nothing left
So just stay away from me
You cant stand to see my face
To know youll never take my place
Theres nothing you can do but
Stand up get up back up now
Just stay away
I feel the hate you push on me
I see the things that you cant see
I know whats on your mind so
Stand up get up back up
Its not the things you say to me
Its not the things that I believe
You try to bring me down
So stand up get up back up now just stay away
