FM Dial Style
Man Overboard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's go home.
To a place we can call our own,
we can live there together,
be in love forever
and never have to be alone.

Would you try? Or would you leave me for some other guy?
I have been sitting without you
just thinking about you
When you wake up you will call me
and I will tell you that I miss you so.
and wishing you were here inside.

When you wake up you will call me
and I will tell you that I miss you so.
I make records so that when I'm gone
you can hear me on your stereo.

Love. I think were in love.

I'm so tired, since I met you
I'm always inspired.




I think I could change the world if you were really my girl
and we would have all we desired.

There was an acoustic cover of this song with an anime guy playing guitar as the thumbnail and now It's gone. Whoever you were dude, I also enjoyed your original music and that's gone too. If you ever see this please reach out, your original music meant a lot to me, especially your song called "From The Top"

Does it move anyone else that the same sort of melody in the solo of FM Dial Style was used in I saw Behemoth and it ruled? So it's connecting the two songs and really giving context to the pain of splitting when originally they were supposed to be "in love forever."
Or it was just another case of the guitarist liking a similar melody because it's just his style and it was not meant to be anything more than that.

Nice observation. I Saw Behemoth And It Ruled was actually meant to be on the record, but it didn't make it.
