Lyrics for Song: When I Hear Her Name
Lyrics for Album: Hot Water Music [1995]
The trains depart upon the hour all the time.
It gets me thinking, maybe this one's mine.
So hard to break away, but that's the way I feel.
To try to get to something that's more real.
[Chorus]
The time came when I saw
That there was more than this
The memories, it seems I'll miss.
Those empty dreams, those broken seams,
It's all the same.
It still hurts when I hear her name.
I tried to walk away, but to no avail.
A vain attempt maybe, but I didn't fail.
The people, the parties, oh how I couldn't take.
I played those silly games, all for her own sake.
[Repeat Chorus]

When I Hear Her Name
Released on Hot Water Music's 1995 self-titled album, this track exemplifies the band's signature blend of post-punk energy and melodic sensibility. Fronted by vocalist and guitarist Matt Berninger, the song features his distinctive falsetto and introspective lyricism, characteristic of the group's work during the mid-1990s. The recording captures the raw, atmospheric production that defined Hot Water Music's early discography, balancing emotional vulnerability with driving rhythms. As a key component of their debut, the song reflects the band's exploration of personal themes and sonic textures that would influence their subsequent releases and cement their reputation in the indie rock landscape. |
