Overview
Band commentary
Anna Waronker: When my son, who is ten now, started pre-school, I cried when saying goodbye on one of his first days and he asked me why I had “drip drops” (in my eyes) and the term stuck with me. This song is about when things build and build and build until you’re not sure what will happen and the fear of how you will be afterwards. Musically, it was really gratifying. I loved doing the arrangement and the improv sections that Kaitlin Wolfberg, our new violinist, did were spot on. It was like she read our minds and played exactly what we wanted to hear.

Lyrics
Tick tick tick
Goes the bomb, bomb, bomb
In my heart, heart, heart
As I fall apart
Before I return
From the graves of my grief
When I return
Will I come in peace or in pieces?
Drip drip drip
Into drop, drop, drops
That go on and on
Will it ever stop?
Before I return
From the graves of my grief
When I return
Will I come in peace or in pieces?
