Lyrics
(fall on)
fall on your faces tripping through the dark
(how long)
how long till your flicker loses spark
(call on)
call on you to simply fill the part
(so long)
an end to one is someone elses start

have you known, the conversations old
have you known, the room is getting cold

how long till you know for real
the way I feel about the deal (x2)

stop feeling bad
im not the best youve ever had
i'm feelin glad
we can both be so mature
i'll go this way
you'll say you forgot something
can't get away
cause i'm dropping anchor one more time
dropping anchor one more time

cant stand it when you leave notes on my car
this hangin on has simply gone too far
(hollow)
hollows the attraction that we are
(wallow)
wallowing in pity's left no scar

have you known, the conversations old
have you known, the room is getting cold

how long till you know for real
the way I feel about the deal (x2)

stop feeling bad
im not the best youve ever had
i'm feelin glad
we can both be so mature
i'll go this way
you'll say you forgot something
can't get away
cause i'm dropping anchor one more time
dropping anchor one more time (x3)

goodbye, she said I don't need to know
what your'e doing anymore
I tried for so long to keep away
it's better off for us that way
I said, somehow she always seems to reappear
we may as well since were both here
don't cry, we wont die from our regrets
it's just a side effect you get
yeah you know

stop feeling bad
im not the best youve ever had
i'm feelin glad
we can both be so mature
i'll go this way
you'll say you forgot something
can't get away
cause i'm dropping anchor one more time
dropping anchor one more time (x3)

Really good jam!
Man, I guess today is rock day. This is the best one so far. Great sound
vocally and the music is top notch. Really good jam!

Anchors away!
Oo, I really dig this one. The track has a more completed feel than On My
Way, perhaps it is the layered vocals. No holes in this, except maybe the
ending. (I'd cut it off after "drop an anchor one more time" and maybe
put in a sound effect of an anchor dropping, kind of a comical visual
thing?) Totally dig the feel, energy, pace. A really hit. Great short
phrases, rhymes, pop lyrics, alternative edge, and your voice his this
wonderful gravel in it that sits perfectly over the whole thing. (Could still
use an edgier EQ on the vocals, in my ears). Top notch pop punk.

Jumpin'
Nice work all around. The drums (loops) are the only weak point in this
production. Real drums will make this tune *really* kick.

I dig the energy. ;-)

have a nice (green) day
Yeah, OK, sorry man - this is a good song - agree you have an authentic
voice and everyting. Gotta say though, I preferred On My Way, but I
wouldn't skip over this on the album.

Remember us when you're famous - on this evidence, you've got what it
takes.

Great band name, by the way.

great stuff dude.
i like your style. i like this sort of music and you do it well.
nice frantic intro. love the bass. sounds like every part listens to each other. gives me that early soul asylum vibe which can only be a good thing.....definately on high rotation here at ghetto studios.........
