Greenwheel worked with producer Jim Wirt in early 2004 on 16 new songs for a second full-length release on Island Records. The tentative name of the record was Electric Blanket, but it never came out since the band parted ways with the label in 2004. The band made the unreleased tracks available through a media player on their official website. The band has expressed interest at their shows that fans distribute the CD amongst themselves if they don't have a copy, and the band provides burned copies of the disc for free at their shows.
After parting ways with Island, the band remixed and remastered their first independent self-titled release, and they re-released it to the public in 2005. While it shared the same name as their first major-label release, it actually consisted of a completely different track lineup with the exception of "Drowning Man" and "Louder Than Words," which appear on both releases.
In addition to parting ways with Island, the band also parted ways with long-time drummer Doug Randall, and Drew Bailey joined the band to fill the vacant spot behind the drum kit. Long-time guitarist Marc Wanninger also departed the band, resulting in the current four-member lineup.
On March 28, 2006, the band released a brand new five song EP entitled Bridges For Burning. The new release was accompanied by Greenwheel's five month long "Bridges for Burning Tour".
In 2007, the band announced that they were creating a side project called Go Van Gogh and releasing a new album Ruby and the Starlight Ballroom. Greenwheel had taken some time to focus on the new project but has recently performed at I-Fest on August 16, 2008 put on by Ichannel.fm as well as Play:St.L on September 22, 2008. There is rumors of a reunion show with all five original members.

Greenwheel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You never have, never will.
What do you believe?
These images are unforgiving.
Jealousy
Always running through your veins.
As your witness, everything's not right.
No, everything's not right.
Where did you go?
You forgot about
All you've left behind.
It's all out on the table.
Still you wonder why,
Yeah, you wonder why
You can't hurt anymore.
Your emotions just
Can't be seen in light.
You're lost in here,
You're lost in here.
You just disappear.
You deny
The pain that overcomes.
Deep inside
You've kept it there too long.
Grayest skies,
The answers bleeding through sunlight,
Cast its shadow over all.
Where did you go?
You forgot about
All you've left behind.
It's all out on the table.
Still you wonder why,
Yeah, you wonder why
You can't hurt anymore.
Your emotions just
Can't be seen in light.
You're lost in here,
You're lost in here.
You just disappear.
You're lost in here, here, here.
You're lost in here, here, here.
You're lost in here, here, here.
You just disappear.
The lyrics to Greenwheel's song "Disappear" speak to a sense of disconnect and loss. The singer seems to be addressing someone who is unable to engage with the emotions or experiences of those around them. The repetition of "you just disappear" adds to the feeling of isolation and abandonment that the singer is expressing.
The song also touches on themes of jealousy and pain that is being suppressed. The line "Jealousy always running through your veins" suggests that the person being addressed has a pervasive sense of envy that colors their interactions with others. Their pain is also described as being kept "deep inside," contributing to their sense of disconnection.
Overall, "Disappear" is a powerful exploration of the ways in which people disengage from their own emotions and from those around them. The repeated refrain of "Where did you go?" speaks to the sense of loss and confusion that this disconnection can create, while the chorus' emphasis on disappearing reinforces the idea that these feelings are being actively suppressed.
