about

Animal Machine is the first single released from our recording session at Blackbird Studio in Nashville, Tennessee!

lyrics

You heard somethin’ you thought somebody said
Your heart’s pumpin’, eyes bulgin’ red
Draw expectations up inside your head
And assumes everybody’s read
You're a demented animal machine
You've got a pistol with no magazine
You keep mulling over everything
Do you know what I mean?

You howl louder than a hurricane
Hit the ground hard then come whirlin’ again
Just point a finger to avoid your shame
You've got a temper that can’t be tamed
Must have a pocket with a hole in the seams
The money disappears in so many things
You'll have to climb the ladder through other means
Do you know what I mean?

True color's bleedin', there is no hidin' from me
True color's bleedin’, there is no hidin' from
Hidin’ from, hidin’ from, hidin’ from me

A false start, a blindfolded run
You race for recklessness and do it for fun
Sabotage all of the things you've won
Got dispositions you can’t shake from
Every story is a story in sheen
A story you hope everyone will believe
But cryin’ wolf don't resurrect the sheep
Do you know what I mean?
