Possibly my favorite song on the album. Great,
hard-hitting guitar riff. Interesting lyrics and
beautiful vocals. Everything about this song is
great.

Also quite possibly my favorite too. It's one of
the more heavy songs on the cd and as always the
vocals are great. The melody of this song will
play repeatedly in your head. Even if it lacks a
greater meaning to myself, it's a great song to
listen to.

Three-way tied for best song on the CD. The brutal
lyrics and heavy guitar-riff backing makes this
song. Though, the only song I can't relate to on
the CD, it doesn't take way from the sheer
briliance.

Possessive parents? What, did your dad fuck you in
the cornhole or something? Fucking stupid kids,
always blaming their parents. It's about the
government, you fuck nut. Please, don't breed.

This song is great, I love the vocals (Maynard's
voice is such a gift) the bass, guitar, drums,
everything. They deserve something for this so.

I fucking love this song, Maynard can keep writing
the best lyrics, and not have to sound like every
other band writing about the same sorta stuff. His
voice is amazing.

This has to be one of the best APC songs I've ever
heard. Maynard is God though so of course it was
awsome. I love the mix between the low eerie sound
and then having the heavy parts mixed in.

This is honestly one of the most beautiful songs I
have ever heard. The lyrics are intense, almost
frightening, and when coupled with Maynard's
vocals, is both beautiful and haunting.
Definently one of APC's best songs.

Definitely much better than the newer version.
Some classics just cannot be remade.

Definitely a song that gets me extremely intense
and passionate. Play it really loud, block
everything out and see if it doesn't take over
your body.

the remix, eh... i could go without out, but at
the same time, it's apprioate for the relation
that it tries to get across to the listener... as
for the video, i can see the correlation, but at
the same time, it would have been cool to see
maynard go a different route with the song...
oops, got a little off subject and away from what
i orginally wanted to say... great song and
sometimes it's best to leave well enough alone...

i like both versions of this song the OG (THIS
ONE) and the remix (off the new cd) the remix is
"darker" than this version but it isn't as bad it
is good....but don't forget emotive is a bunch of
Anti-war/ anti-hate songs that APC likes so i
guess it is okay for them to put a remake of one
of thier own songs in
