GRO, from Ft. Worth, Texas delivers a raucous blend of acoustic-driven power-pop rock that, while changing often in tempo and timbre, never sounds anything less than pristine, dynamic, smart, and uniquely Green River Ordinance.
They've sold over 20,000 copies between their 2 independent releases: their full length debut, Beauty of Letting Go (avail for free @ www.freegro.net) and their new EP, Way Back Home. They've packed houses across the Country, and have toured with the likes of Bon Jovi, Collective Soul, The Click 5, Blue October, Bowling for Soup, Flickerstick, Eisley, Simple Plan, Mutemath, Matt Wertz, Lovedrug and many other bands already established in the music world.
Just barely old enough to be customers in the bars they sometimes play, the band is anything but green. They have lived the life, and on stage or in the studio, this fact is obvious. Smooth, polished and professional, their musicianship and stage presence belies their youth. They look like what they are: rock stars. But that's where the similarity ends. You won't find these young men bashing their way through hotel room walls or overdosing on the latest chemical craze on a tour bus.
GRO is not like other bands on the way to the top. Negativity isn't their thing. Positive in the face of all the adversity rock and roll can throw at them, the joy they have with each other, and with their music, shines in their faces. They walk their own walk, and they walk it proudly. They are making their own rules, taking their own place in time, making their own mark on the world.
And they are loving every minute of it.

Crawling
Green River Ordinance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love and moderation
Is all you ever gave, but look inside
'Cause the sting of this sensation
It flickers like a drug there in your eyes
Can you feel it, with your body?
The more you pull the road is tightens
To the place you've been to find
I'm crawling in your heart
Uh, uh, uh
Crawling in your heart
Uh, uh, uh
You envy all the others
? through the worst just to feel the heart
And will you ever see it
It's me here by your side!
Love and moderation
Is all you ever gave, but look inside
'Cause the sting of this sensation
It flickers like a drug there in your eyes
Can you feel it, with your body ?
The more you pull the road gets ?
And you follow the moments
To the place you've been to find
I'm crawling in your heart
When you feel it, don't fight it
We can still await ?
when we follow the flashes
Of the love we picked to ?
I'm crawling in your heart
I'm crawling in your heart
I'm crawling in your heart (I still want, I still want)
I'm crawling in your heart
I'm crawling in your heart
I'm crawling in your heart
The song "Crawling" by Green River Ordinance is a love song that explores the intense feelings of the singer for their love interest. The lyrics depict the singer as being deeply invested in the emotions of the other person and feeling as though they are "crawling in [their] heart." The singer describes how they feel the sting of the sensations they experience with their love interest, likening it to a drug that is addictive and hard to resist. Despite the love interest only giving love and moderation, the singer can't help but feel taken by the flicker of emotion exhibited in the other's eyes.
The chorus of the song calls attention to the physical sensations that come with love. The more the singer tries to pull away from the love, the tighter the hold becomes. The singer encourages the love interest to follow the moments and keep searching for the place they've been to find. The second verse has the singer reminding the love interest that they are not alone in feeling these sensations of love. In fact, they acknowledge that the love interest is envious of others who have felt the worst, just to experience the highs of love. Nevertheless, the singer is always by their side to help them experience these emotions.
Overall, the lyrics of the song are very poetic and paint a beautiful picture of the way love feels. It is clear that the singer is completely smitten and can't help but "crawl" further into their love interest's heart.
