by Kr!s Cortez

I'm smoking on secondhand serotonin. Hi, my name is Kr!s Cortez. When punk goes acoustic, it brings a whole different meaning to the word "Emo". My song Serotonin tells a story, a story that many people are familiar with. Loneliness. With melancholy melodies and anthemic lyrics, to fill our void.
