what lovesoamazing said "I asked Cody (vocals/guitar) about this a while back and he told me that it was about a friend of theirs that really liked their music and hung out with them alot but got online and started talking real bad about them because they don't have breakdowns and stuff and how they aren't the typical hardcore band. " makes ton of sense if you think really deeply about the lyrics
Altough you could relate this song to sex or whatever, it really makes sense as sort of a sarcastic song to their friend "Well it's yours you can have it if it means that much to you" what they are saying is they are sick of this guys constant complaining about this band so heres our stereotypical run of the mill hardcore song for you.
The Next two verses just speak about conformity to the hardcore genre, and as this guy sits at his computer and types all this garbage about ACB they won't do anything.
Then the third verse is really their hit at the guy "let it be known that this is what you'll get for falling out of line, and no one wins against the machine, so get back in line" basically saying you know you can say all the garbage you want bet no one is going to be The perfect hardcore band, (Sorry i forgot to mention i think "The Machine" is your stereotypical hardcore genre music).
And lastly as it was mentioned from lovesoamazing. The very last verse is the closest thing ACB has to a break down. and they are finally giving into having a breakdown but they throw in a tongue in cheek "Are you a man now, cause you got what you wanted" so after all this complaining that these guys aren't "real hardcore" they have a breakdown in the song.
I love this song and ACB, They are truly an amazing group with/without TJ. I often find myself just really getting into their music even in my room ill just throw my hands up and start to worship. These guys capture the real essence of what Christian Hardcore/screamo/Post-hardcore whatever you want to call it is. Passion and Chaos..Love it
