Story Behind The Song

After frequenting many musical background these lyrics finally found a home when the band stopped murdering this particular piece of music.

Song Description

Carry me over is a gritty yet atmospheric melodic indie rock ballad that expresses the angst of the suburban songwriter's struggle to reconcile his former ambitions with his present predicament of ennui, depression and despondency that only intensifies in

Lyrics

Grey streets deliver me away from here.
With red-rimmed eyes,
I drive all through the night.
I won't hang around with those kids from school,
because that's like giving up...
and I won't give up...

though now I'm to tired
to think about those things I should have done.
No more songs about running,
and I'm too bored to dream about fame,
for crying out loud and Pete's sake....
I'm beginning to think that time
is one big mistake.

So I've written this song,
but will it carry me over?
Will it silence the hills that keep calling me away?
And what of those horizons I heard about
on graduation day,
with those other dead kids around?
Have they disappeared without a sound?
Have I disappeared too?

Now what can carry me over?
What can bring me though?
One more song about running?
Or another song about the closing of eyes...
or a song for you?

Yes. I think it's true.
We're just waiting for this thing to be through.
It will never end, will it?
