    Since half of FOUR YEARS PAST surfs, it seemed only fitting to write a love ballad for the ocean. Powerful melody and message.

    Story Behind the Song
    James McMullin, the lyricist/singer for FOUR YEARS PAST is an avid surfer and a member of The Surfrider Foundation" (an organization dedicated to preserving the ocean). His lyrics always seem to have an environmental influence, but in this love song, he chastizes humans for taking their environment for granted and warns listeners it will "rise again." In a world of somewhat repetative love songs, FOUR YEARS PAST adheres to the modern rock format in their own unique way. Powerful melody and message.

    Lyrics
    patiently

    footsteps border parallel to the sea, still no second set appearing
    morning as the sun… she stretches her arms
    revealing cigarettes, empty bottles and other oceanside charms

    still you wait patiently older than everything
    knowing you will rise again
    still you wait patiently older than everything
    knowing we’ll crawl out again

    as it depletes we’ll all beg... no we’ll plea,
    “give us back what we’ve always had”
    brother it never belonged to you or me
    if you listen I swear you’ll hear laughter from the sea

    blue meets blue, it permits the mind to escape
    all of our lives have led us to this place
    I stand before you… my only escape
    Release me from this place
    Release me from this place…
