Biography:
Do you know the painting that you see on some greeting cards where all of the animals are sitting together, stoic and proud in the forest, and there in the background, rising in the sky, it's the earth? You have to ask “why aren't the animals trying to fight and eat each other? They are fucking enemies!” and “why is the earth rising into the sky? If the earth is in the sky, then where the fuck are we?” That shit is Wax Mannequin. Kind of lame... but so important and gripping.

Three black bells ring out for something
one of them is call you to war
another one is somber
and it's making me feel ill
the last bell has a wise intention
listens really close to those before
as we gather around in tears in anguish
it burns us with careful tone
what you singing for
once young boy he built a fort
call around his pals and come to play
if there ain't enough room in there
you got to beg and choose
hey boy don't make no mistake
gotta a right to do stuff as you will
remember we are like these teams, embrace us
blind will come and cut your face
once poor man he got a boy
talks about a proper way to be
and if get done whats proper
you'll probably want in
hey man don’t make no mistake
if you go demanding something from us
better lead the way with perfect grace
so your soldiers march on home to you
there asking did you really mean it
once poor man he made a sound
if the worker ever put them young guns down
would he ever be bothered
to listen to what they said
hey dad don't you know by now
can't you see that you once was but isn’t
your looking mighty noble in my eye
advice has never changed your mind only old mistakes
three black bells ring out for reason
one of them is calling you to fight
one of them is somber and its making me feel right
the last bell has a wise intention
listens really close to those before
as we gather round in joy in anguish
in burns us with careful tone
what you fighting for
what you singing for
what you fighting for
what you fighting for
what you singing for
what is something for
