We joke this is the only country song we know. For an alternative/country/folk song it has some pretty powerful lyrics about how we need to stick together to get through the tough times we’ve had recently in the country. Since Chris and his wife Morgane both sing on their version, my wife Amanda joined me on our version.

Starting Over

We all have ideas about what our lives will be like, but we’re always nostalgic for the past.. when we were kids. It’s amazing we got this far, but it often feels like a struggle to live up to our dreams, weighed down by the opposing force of every-day life.

I made a music video for the song using footage from an old film about a kid trying to figure out his place. youtu.be/hCQUJYMWXDY

It started out as fun and games
But they’re lining up now
And it’ll never be the same
It’s a miracle of modern science
That most of us will make it out alive
Without getting hurt or dying

We were only kids when this started
Now we’re trying to make it on our own
I can barely hold back from crying

It feels like something’s been weighing me down
Pulled up a few feet shy of the finish line
It’s gone before you can figure it out
It feels like something’s been weighing me down

You can try but you can’t hide it
I saw this going different in my mind
We were always bad at timing

Anchor End is an acoustic rock/folk group from Lancaster, PA. Often performing as a one-man band, you can catch performances by Aaron Pearson at Lancaster Central Market - rolling in on a bike packed with a cajon kick drum, an acoustic strapped to his back, and an assortment of harmonicas.

Other members of the group include Matt Christopher and Aaron’s wife Amanda. You can always count on the group to be belting out 3-part harmonies to alternative, punk, and rock hits from the 90s and 2000s.

Aaron previously performed in the popup punk band Shelbyille with Matt, as well as the popup punk band Get A Life.
