about

This song is about the twists and turns in a complicated life and the bitter aggresion that sometimes builds up in people when they don't get there way.

lyrics

alright
you're burning down the trees
they fall into the seas
and then your dogs bite
they're bearing a disease
that itches like the fleas
it's been a long night
you're sleepless in your bed
you're racing through your head
cuz when the dogs fight
it's gotten out of hand
these particles of sand

all along they will let you know
violence is the answer to everything
but you better listen more
violence is a dirty and dangerous sin

what's this
you're losing all your hair
becoming less aware
it's like the chefs kiss
the wrinkles in your skin
the way you get to thin
you find your past life
a time when you were young
a song so better sung
until your last wife
she found another man
who doing all he can

all along they will let you know
violence is the answer to everything
but you better listen more
violence is a dirty and dangerous sin

how'd you lose your throne
it was the one thing you could own
but now you're stuck in your regret
you never were the teachers pet

all along they will let you know
violence is the answer to everything
but you better listen more
violence is a dirty and dangerous sin

"Obsolete Machines are an Austin based band whose genre-bending music is thought-provoking and dark, but still melodic and memorable. They stick out, mainly due to the fact that they don’t rely on generic or traditional song structures sounds and approach. Their unique blend of machines and traditional instruments is fresh and compelling." -Tim Palmer ... more
