The band released this statement:
"I'm going to keep this short, and hopefully fairly devoid of pompous self-importance. Snowing has come to an end at the ripe old age of 3 and a half (that's over 90 in emo years!). Words are really escaping me right now, so I'll just say this: We had a blast writing songs, driving across the country playing shows, imbibing copious amounts of alcohol, and earning future grey hairs by reading all about ourselves on message boards. Thanks for everything."
Pump Fake
Snowing Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The opening lyrics of Snowing's "Pump Fake" paint a picture of a troubled and complex relationship. The singer is wrestling with their feelings for someone who has seemingly moved on and is now surrounded by other romantic interests. The use of rhetorical questions reflects their uncertainty and confusion, as they try to make sense of the situation. The line "And what do you do with those boys I see you with?" suggests a sense of possessiveness and jealousy, while the admission that they still want their ex-lover shows that they are not over the relationship.
The following line, "And what do you think I would do after you left? Would I stay sober?" highlights the singer's emotional and mental instability. The suggestion that they may turn to self-harm if their ex were to return underscores the intensity of their feelings and the toll their relationship has taken on them. The final line, "No regeneration," is a bleak and final affirmation of the singer's sense of hopelessness and inner turmoil.
In summary, "Pump Fake" is an introspective and emotionally raw song that delves into the complexities of relationships and the toll they can take on our mental health.
Line by Line Meaning
So when did cigarettes start cluttering your hands?
I wonder sometimes when you started smoking so much.
I ponder this some nights alone when I undress.
Sometimes I think about it when I'm alone and getting ready for bed.
And what do you do with those boys I see you with,
I see you with other guys, I wonder what you do with them.
or better yet, what would I do if you came back?
Or even better, what would I do if you came back to me?
I'd say no, or I hope I could, but I still want you.
I know I should say no, and I hope I could, but the truth is I still have feelings for you.
And what do you think I would do after you left?
I wonder what I would do if you left me again.
Would I stay sober? I think it'd be much worse.
I'm not sure if I could stay sober if you left, it might actually be harder.
I'd cut my arms off. No regeneration.
I would be so devastated that I wouldn't want to live anymore.

First time I heard that intro, I just got out of my chair and started dancing. That's when I knew Snowing was one of my favorite bands.
