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.

Open Your Eyes Lyrics

12 Stones

When I look into your eyes
I see a lot of hate
Pushing me away
Youre haunted by a past
A past that brings you down
So you throw it all away
Again
Just try to find a place deep within your soul
And dont deny the child living deep inside
Open your eyes and find
This lifes better than you know
Its in your hands now
Just open up your eyes
Deep inside of your mind
Youre forced to believe
That nothings gonna change
So I take you by the hand
And I lead you to a place
A place of happiness
Like this
Dont throw it away
