The band, originally a four-piece, started out on Negative Progression Records. After gaining a small but solid fan base, the band was picked up by Lobster Records, on which they released Timing Is Everything in 2002, and Silverstrand in 2005. Silverstrand chronicles the band's move to southern California, and is their most focused work to date. Recently, the band added former Don't Look Down front man Ryan Ogren as an extra guitar player, and released their Virgin Records debut, Step Outside Yourself in late August 2006.
Fall
Over It Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The night under the stars? Seemingly, your
Eyes focus on me and I wish that I could be...
Between all these lines
The print is way to fine to read
Could we please retrace a lost design,
So I could fall into your arms just for awhile?
I find myself back where we started.
Dreaming alone, tearing down these walls
That time has built between us.
Coming home has never been the hardest thing.
Were our stars dim when we set sight?
Or were we too lost in each other's eyes to even care at all?
I promise I'd try
I'd sacrifice all my time
If I could fall into you for tonight.
I find myself back where we started.
Dreaming alone, tearing down these walls
That time has built between us.
Coming home has never been the hardest thing.
Between all these lines
The print is way to fine to read
Could we please retrace a lost design,
So I could fall into your arms just for tonight?
The song Fall by Over It is a melancholic track about lost love and longing for it. The lyrics speak to the emotions felt by someone who is reminiscing and wondering about a past relationship. The first verse poses a question: were we just heartbroken when we spent the night under the stars? It seems like the lover is longing for something that they used to have with their partner but can't seem to find again. The second verse is about the difficulty of reading between the lines in a lost relationship. It's clear that the singer is struggling to understand what went wrong and wishes that things could be different. They want to retrace a lost design, which is a metaphor for wanting to go back in time to fix things. The chorus is a repetition of the idea of "coming home," which is not an easy thing to do. It's hard to go back to a familiar place after being away for so long, especially when the person you love is no longer there.
The lyrics are emotive and introspective, conveying the feelings of someone who is struggling to come to terms with the end of a relationship. The song speaks to the universal human experience of wanting what we can't have and wishing to go back in time to fix things. The theme of coming home is also present, representing the hope that things can be made right again.
