You'll wait it out
Force is not the same
I bought ya
This world will explode
Into numb, one deal owned

Pray for your sons and your daughters
You didn't refuse
We'll the first one, weak arms
Right or wrong(right or wrong)
First off we'll dance when we dance
The last one we fault, the first one we kill...(the last one we fault, the first one we kill...)

Forsee her
Thats what we've done with your head
Your begging for papa
We're safer but
We wash our hands in death
End me
When we fall...

He'll go, feel it grow
We may not be the ones
Feel it go, feel like we know
We move around
We'll pay
We protest
We'll pawn off war
We protest...

We all hit the floor
Right or wrong
You're such a fool
Ignorance at its best

We are at war
Ignorance isn't bliss
We are lied to you suckers
Everyone

This is not a joke
In the end
All suffer
For what we've done

Liars

We all suffer...

    General Comment:If a song has personal meaning to you, and if you find meaning in the lyrics, and someone finds another meaning in the lyrics, and you and that other person can relate, then ultimatly, the lyrics writer accomplished his or her job. Even if they wrote it based on nothing, if you find meaning, it's enough for you. Look at Nirvana; most of Nirvana's lyrics don't mean anything (as told by Kurt Cobain, Krist, and Dave), and yet if you find meaning in Radio Friendly Unit Shifter, Tourettes', or Breed, then ultimately, Kurt did his job as a lyric writer. Same with Krista. I don't find meaning in this song, but I do in I'm Cold, and even though Krista admitted that almost all, or all of her lyrics are nonsense, I find meaning and what I find in that song means a lot to me.

    Just because IWABO are hard to listen to, or all of the lyrics are unintelligible, doesn't mean that IWABO themselves or Krista herself are bad. Even if they like to fuck around a lot.

    My Opinion:This band is FUCKING AMAZING. <33333 And YEAH not many people can scream as good as Krysta, SHE IS THE SHIT. <3 This band's obviously NOT for people like UNREALSKY, so DAMN please stop dissing our music! Go comment Taylor Swift or Justin Bieber or Rebecca Black music, because OBVIOUSLY THIS KIND OF MUSIC'S NOT FOR YOU.

    My Interpretation:Come on, guys. You can't come in here and spout shit about the music cause you don't like the band members as people.
    The song's most definitely about war. I want to add a couple things to tylrcffmn's interpretation.


    You'll wait it out: We're going in and there's nothing you can do but watch and wait.
    Force is not the same: It's a one-sided fight.
    I bought ya: He (Bush?) made you agree with him.
    This world will explode
    Into numb, one deal owned: We lose our innocence and emotion, but one person wins.


    Pray for your sons & your daughters
    You didn't refuse: To the parents.
    We'll the first one, weak arms: We'll annilihate them.
    Right or wrong(right or wrong): It doesn't matter which cause we're winning.
    First off we'll dance when we dance: Dancing=fighting, or victory.
    The last one we fault, the first one we kill...: Go in, kill them all, blame the ones remaining.


    Forsee her: ?
    Thats what we've done with your head: Again, Bush has made everyone think his way.
    Your begging for papa: The soldiers themselves are scared, goes with the 'sons and daughters' part.
    We're safer but
    We wash our hands in death: They're made to think that killing is the only way to defend their country.
    End Me
    When we fall...: Gonn' die.


    He'll go, feel it grow: It gets worse after Bush leaves.
    We may not be the ones
    Feel it go, feel like we know: We might not see it end, but it will.
    We move around
    We'll pay
    We protest
    We'll pawn off war
    We protest...: We oppose it but we're profiting from it.


    We all hit the floor: Everyone dies
    Right or wrong: Whether or not they're the good guys.
    Youre such a fool
    Ignorance at it's best: You got played.


    We are at war
    Ignorance isn't bliss: It's All Happening whether or not you want to acknowledge it.
    We are lied to you suckers
    Everyone


    This is not a joke
    In the end
    All suffer
    For what we've done

    Liars

    We all suffer...



    I seriously cannot believe that anyone couldn't see the barest hint of meaning to these words.

    I love a lyricist who can get their message across without being completely blunt about it. Sucks for you if you fail to recognize her talent.

    As for the band's style, (they make me wish I had a second penis to jack) I'm not gonna waste time defending it against people who fail to see the beauty in grindcore, experimentation, and just plain hilarity.

    General Comment:Ok, everyone who's like 'uh, dis thong duhthint have a meaning' needs to go drink some paint, cuz are you the one who wrote the song?
    NO, so how would you know, geniuses? Besides, this song means different things to different people.
    To Krysta, it could mean 'we all die for our sins' and to little Jimmy it means 'don't eat bacon , kevin'
    EVEN if the lryics are random, you people aren't the supreme judges of the world, so your opinion is YOURS only.
    One more thing, if you don't like the band, or lyrics, or song, WHO CARES?'
    just don't comment!
    I've seen Iwabo in concert twice, and got an autographed guitar (it was my guitar, the whole band signed it though ) cuz I had backstage passes. Anyone who thinks this song isn't 'artistic' or it's 'crap' is just retarded, cuz who's the one makin millions?
    NOT you. When you make a band and have millions of fans and a record contract and are making popular songs, then you might have a place to criticize this band or any other band.

    General Comment:Guys, this is an Avante Garde metal group. Everything they do is experimental. Like in the video having a retarded workout session while soloing on balloon guitars lol. Like wtf? And the weird car horn in the background before they get back into the song. Point is, they aren't trying to be serious. If they were, they would probably not name their band iwrestledabearonce. And that song probably wouldn't be called Tastes Like Kevin Bacon. They sound pretty crappy when they wail because that's what they do. They're having fun. And I want to point out that what they do is experimental. Go onto YouTube and find the interview with them. They specifically ask if she was on drugs when writing her music. She said she never did, but she tries psychadelic an spiritual experiments. Like flipping the lights on and off over and over again while she was writing. She also took a bunch of different baths, cold and warm. Anyway, they're just being weird. You wanna listen to a weirder band, listen to the mars volta. And tell me if they're attention whores.

    Song Meaning:Well now, reading the lyrics i'm probley going to stop listening to this band. First because of Ulrich Firelord, and that live concert; but not its gone wayyyyyyyyyy too far!! The song meaning is simple she's basically saying that all Christian are is murdering idiots who make no since at all. Proof you say, well let's make it simple when she says " Pray for your sons & your daughters You didn't refuse We'll the first one, weak arms Right or wrong(right or wrong) First off we'll dance when we dance
    The last one we fault, the first one we kill the last one we fault, the first one we kill Forsee her
    Thats what we've done with your head Your begging for papa We're safer but We wash our hands in death. Because the Bible says " So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen" Matt. 20:16

    General Comment:I'm just guessing, but I'm assuming that it's about killing people that you really hate, and everyone paying the price or their wrong-doings in the end. Can we stop bashing Krysta btw? She's a fucking chick who can do some manly shit. How many other chicks cant do that? And if you think you can, by all means. It's a lot harder than it sounds. And the lyrics here are wrong. And their shit isnt like the rest. If you cant tell IWABO from other bands, then you need to sprout ears, cause you apparently never heard them. Most grindcore bands have their own distict sounds. If you knock it, it was probably because you were closed-minded or biased in the first place. I'm not saying you cant like it. I hate country but don't say every country artist is a hick.

    General Comment:Hello ya'll I'm high and thought it would be an appropriate time to work some shit out here. Alright, so I know Krysta and Steven so I'll just throw some shit out there. First of all, some were correct in the anti-war/government ideas (Oh, and, whoever was wondering, Krysta does write the lyrics). That being said, most of the ideas are only discernible on a very vague, idea-based level. Anyone rolling out like THIS SONG IS WRITTEN LIKE LEGIT SHIT is probably fan-boying hard. It's a poor example of lyricism, but is, in fact, there. Also, she can do much better and there's some decent lyrics on the album. Whether she tries to keep her vocals muddled or not is kind of irrelevant; if you're looking for the music then it doesn't matter, if you're looking for lyrics you won't like this band very much. The idea of using a voice an instrument, and not just presenting lyrical ideas is apparent in many great bands as well (see Sigur Ros). Ehhhmmm..also..anyone rolling in here like yo diz band so gud u dont evn no shit bout nuffin diz is grindc0re n worsdasdklsjfksd. Shut the fuck up, you're unintelligible verbiage makes you, and other followers of any band, seem like you: a 13-year old rebelling from your mommy by being hxc. Also they're not "scene", don't make baseless assumptions. That being said I do enjoy this band greatly, and, apparently, amphetamines.

    General Comment:I don't know about you guys, but I think these "scene" things are kind of retarded, granted I don't understand em. The music is mediocre (in my opinion) and all sounds the same. You can hardly understand the lyrics, and alot of the time (as with IWABO) they don't even make sense. You should probably stop trying to fit into scenes and start listening to real ARTISTIC music. And please, feel free to QQ about this post, I doubt I'll ever read this again
