about
“Anastasia” is the latest single from Glass Cactus, following up their 2015 album “This Morning Would Suck(s) Without You”. They started to work on new material shortly after their debut release, returning to the studio mid-2017 with producer Nixon Boyd of Hollerado. “Anastasia” is a laid back but hard hitting alt-rock tune that tells the story of a man perpetually tormented and conflicted by his love interest. Confident that he despises her, he ultimately concedes to the reality that he will always return to and endure the relationship despite the misery. This song delivers contemptuous verses, heavy soaring choruses, and passionate interludes with a charming bitterness and authenticity that speaks to the human condition.
lyrics
The way she grinds
Reminds me of
Another kind of confidence
That reigns above
A colored sky
To wonder why
So by design, find the time
For one more night
For one more night
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here when she
Goes
The playful looks
Took their toll
I'm falling for a crook who just
Ripped out my soul
The grace of air
Beneath her hair
She left me to wake up alone
But I don't care
No I don't care
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here when she
Goes
(Ohh)
One more night
(Ohh)
One more night
(Ohh)
Just one more night
(Ohh)
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here when she
Goes
Reminds me of
Another kind of confidence
That reigns above
A colored sky
To wonder why
So by design, find the time
For one more night
For one more night
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here when she
Goes
The playful looks
Took their toll
I'm falling for a crook who just
Ripped out my soul
The grace of air
Beneath her hair
She left me to wake up alone
But I don't care
No I don't care
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here when she
Goes
(Ohh)
One more night
(Ohh)
One more night
(Ohh)
Just one more night
(Ohh)
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here
And I fall, for you
Anastasia you make me crawl
On my hands and knees I beg you please
Release me from this nightmare
You know that I will stay here when she
Goes
