the winds of change blow mighty strange theyll rearrange you change your every view the seed you sow the load you tow the life you know may glow a different glow tomorrow from cradle til were granted sweet release the only thing that we can say for sure is this too shall cease them bastards told me what to do them bastards didnt have a clue worked my whole life just scraping by machine did grow and time did fly right by now good advice is all ive got to give do what you wanna do and have some fun while you still live on your own we live and die and lie alone live how you wanna live cause were here one day and gone the next were in and out and full of doubt we leave like we lived lost and perplexed so dont get too tied down and dont you get yourself attached to anything all things change despite your rage the planets pants even the song you sing were all just made of frequencies of waves we are water cutting limestone into caves we are living change on our own we live and die but not alone....
2.	Breaking Up (with society) 04:16	lyrics	buy track
I had a drastic shift in paradigm i was overwrought with overtime so tired of the pantomime sick of corporate ladders and the climb i was told it was in my mind but i just couldnt shake the feeling i was victim of a true crime. its not just hyperbole i hate the game and the referee its a sick sad society thats left its mark on me were all born draftees in a war that makes me question our humanity and sanity im cracking up im breaking down im breaking out an awol draftee im breaking up with society every day i punch a clock but i really wanna punch a cop head spinning like a toy top neurons firing like pop rocks working like a fucking robot wondering when its gonna stop every word on the tv is a fucking lie from the president to his apple pie theyre all telling me to buy buy buy and were just not seeing eye to eye through being the fall guy time to open up my minds eye and then im gonna say goodbye im cracking up....
3.	Part of it 04:22	lyrics	buy track
I fell ive been here before standing outside your door youve got your own life now and im not part of it but my big ole heart is bold and this soul is old past lives flash before my eyes and you are part of it your face is like the sun i still see it when i close my eyes your love is like the moon so full and so bright and so wise you leave me hynotized you make my soul rock and roll you make me who i am in ways only you can i hope in my next life that you are part of it cause we are all made of stars and although that may seem bizarre when in your eyes i see galaxies i know that we're all part of it.....
4.	Your Truth is Violence 03:04	lyrics	buy track
The news line says The village is burned The children all dead Religion is learned The newsline says The warning is Stern The virus has spread The channel gets turned Refrain: buried in our hearts and our souls Our truth is violence Buried in our blood and our bones Our comfort's violence The newsline says The game is war Child don't fret Innocence torn The newsline says The forest is ill The air is dank The oil is spilled Refrain The newsline says The chances are nil Politicians just set So swallow this pill Refrain
5.	Get It On 02:56	lyrics	buy track

6.	Mix Tape 03:21	lyrics	buy track
hey son when i was young there was music on the radio and songs got sung we would stay up late night undercovers by its light capturing our favorites till the sun shone bright to make a mix tape. now to make it big you gotta be a despot you gotta be a robot its all recycled and about nothing all theyre playing is the play button we've lost all meaning and the melody too busy building brands and equity our dreams and passions turned to schemes of pensions a life of servitude to chase conventions we need to escape and reshape we need to make our own mix tape the M in Mtv is ironic the soul is gone the lyrics are moronic id rather join the wolves howling at the full moon when all im hearing is another song with auto-tune.....

about

the Hang Lows Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Disgruntled with the business of main-stream music, the Hang Lows dance to the beat of their own drums and offer their music for free (or pay what you want).
Songs about getting old, fornication, drug abuse, philosophy, and of course their own genitalia are well represented on this, the bands' third studio album entitled MIX TAPE. ... more
