First of all, stop freaking out. You’re being ridiculous. Thank you.
Secondly, this name change was born because of some transitions in the members of this band. The dynamics of tightly-knit groups can become incredibly emotional. A Verse Unsung was started with a different group of four great musicians that pursued goals and a musical direction that were unique and important to them. Now, a couple years down the road, a few new faces have been added to the mix, and those old goals and directions aren’t quite accurate anymore. We want our own identity to describe what we want to achieve as a new group of four musicians.
Most importantly, we hope you’re a fan of the band because of the music we create together, and the quality of the character in its members. Everything else isn’t quite as important, wouldn’t you agree?
But ‘fer real, what do ya think of the name? Without this super scary cloud of AVU ‘doom and gloom’ judgment, it’s actually really cool. I think every damn kid out there can recall a time when he or she thought his or her chest may swell and rupture and implode then explode because of some well thought-out bunch o’ sounds delivered into his or her ear. How those sounds heal us so deep down borders divinity, and we’re all in this music game (whether performer or supporter) for those moments (and the designer drugs, and the hot babes, and the cool rusty van).
We love the name New Medicine. We think it correctly represents the four members of the band and what the music means to us. So suck it.
Trust me, NEW MEDICINE is sick. Agreed? Comment below, thanks for your eyes. We want your ears next. Stay tuned ;-)

Sun Goes Down
New Medicine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now you're coming apart, I keep falling apart
And the sun comes up
Now I don't know where to start, I keep falling apart
And the whole damn world
Keeps on breaking my heart, I don't know where to start
And I can't have my head in circles
I'm at the mercy of a wasted love
And all the things that pass me by
And everything I used to be
Is coming back to torture me
I don't know
If I'll ever bounce back, if I'll ever get it back
Go
Down the end of this road and it never takes me home
I can't have my head in circles
Round and round and round in circles, yeah
I'm at the mercy of a wasted love
And all the things that pass me by
And everything I used to be
Is coming back to torture me
The promises in all my dreams
I'm broken now, it's all I see
Don't you lie to me
I know that I'm not free
Don't you lie to me
I know that I'm not free
I'm at the mercy of a wasted love
And all the things that pass me by
And everything I used to be
Is coming back to torture me
My eyes are blind and all I see
As all the world laughs at me
A darkened light cries out for me
I wish everyone would let me be
The sun goes down
I keep coming apart, I keep falling apart
The lyrics to New Medicine's song Sun Goes Down depict a person who has been left brokenhearted. The song explores the emotions that come with heartbreak, and the feeling of being stuck, unable to move on from what has happened. The first verse describes the struggle that comes each day as the sun rises and sets. The singer feels lost and unsure of where to start in moving forward. The second verse talks about the constant feeling of heartbreak and the inability to escape it, no matter what they do.
The chorus repeats the struggles that the singer is going through with the same lines and adds on the feeling of being stuck in their head, going round and round in circles. The bridge talks about broken promises and how the singer is now broken due to the failed love. The repeated refrain in the song "Don't you lie to me - I know that I'm not free" shows the singer feeling trapped and unable to escape the emotional turmoil they are in.
Overall the song, with its repeated chorus and somber melody, captures the feeling of sadness and despair that comes with heartbreak. It explores the emotions that come with feeling stuck and unable to move on, and the feeling of being trapped in a cycle of pain.
