Backstory:
Belated Structure was born on a chilly winter night in a small garage in Seattle, Washington. Five friends, struggling with their own personal life crises, found solace in the creation of music. Their chemistry was instantaneous, their creativity was radiant, and their shared passion for music was palpable. The band was formed in 2012 with lead vocalist and guitarist Jason Hart, drummer Zack Simmons, bassist Oliver Mitchell, keyboardist Ryan Fields, and backup vocalist and percussionist Lily Sanders. Their music emerged as an emotional outlet for each of them, bringing them closer and resulting in the creation of an avant-garde, passionate, and moving sound.

The band struggled in its early years, battling obscurity and working tirelessly to create a unique sound. Their persistence paid off when their debut album, launched in 2014, garnered considerable attention and launched them on to the national stage. Despite their newfound fame, the band remains grounded and true to their roots, continuing to produce music that resonates with their fans.

Title: “Beneath the Veil”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[Em] Beneath the veil of the [G] midnight sky,
[Em] We find our hearts, we [G] can’t deny.
[D] Fear and hope, the [C] eternal tie,
[Em] We wear our masks and [G] away we fly.

(Chorus)
[Am] Beneath the veil, oh [D] can’t you see,
[G] The truth of us, the [C] mystery?
[Am] Beneath the veil, we [D] dare to be,
[G] Unmasked, unveiled, [C] finally free.

(Verse 2)
[Em] Beneath the veil of [G] silent dreams,
[Em] We find the cracks, [G] the unseen seams.
[D] Truth and lies, [C] or so it seems,
[Em] We’re more than just [G] the sum of our means.

(Chorus)
[Am] Beneath the veil, oh [D] can’t you see,
[G] The puzzle pieces of [C] our history?
[Am] Beneath the veil, we [D] dare to be,
[G] Real and raw, [C] unapologetically.
