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.
Your Song
Over It Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel it kinda freak you out
All the time its getting closer and closer
Stuck in a kaleidoscope, right about to lose control
When I feel a hand on my shoulder
Turn around to look- its gone
Call it superstition but all my thoughts spin me around to you
Finally found your wings and you gave it all to watch over me
Finally found your wings and now your song plays on in me...on in me
Find it irresistible
To pull the plug on logical
And wonder how to live for the moment
Who is lost and what's been found
When and where and why we're down to resist the best explanation
You know it
Time here is up. Floating away. Maybe it won't come back
Dust chasing out heels, droplets of rain falling so gracefully
Time pulled you away but now the emergency can wait
Your song plays on in me
In the song "Your Song" by Over It, the lyrics express a sense of being lost and disconnected. The singer feels like they are stuck in a kaleidoscope, unable to control their thoughts or feelings. They long to live in the moment and feel as though life is slipping away too quickly. The hand on their shoulder represents a connection to something or someone, but when they turn around, it's gone. They are left feeling confused and uncertain.
The lyrics also touch on the idea that sometimes we may never fully understand what happened to someone or why they left. The line "What became of you we may never know" suggests that the singer is struggling to come to terms with the loss of someone important in their life.
Despite this sense of loss, the chorus provides a glimmer of hope. The singer sings that the person they lost has finally found their wings and is watching over them. Their song plays on in the singer, providing a sense of comfort and connection even in their absence.
Overall, "Your Song" conveys a sense of longing and confusion, but ultimately offers a message of hope and connection.

It was the first song recorded in a cassete that i gave my girlfriend 33 years ago.
Now I am 57 and she passed away, she left last weekend. I miss her but I still have this song alive here with me. RIP Cassia.
