Not the lyrics, noob! Just the sounds.

also, Blue Calx for thinking music = yes.
 
Yeah, and the sounds lead me to believe you live life in a giant machine that consumes human flesh and spits out misery. :O
 
You've never been driving along in the grey morning after it's rained wearing headphones, still tired, in that quiet thinking surreal mood?

That's what I'm talking about. Listening to it then is surreal as ****, and I like surreality (which makes sense given some of my ... hobby experiences)
 
I don't listen to music when driving because I'm a horrible driver and I'll probably kill people if I'm distracted. :|
