Lyrics:

We think they got how they wanted to feel
then discovered five minutes til wedlock,
all the mirrors were cracked
the suns setting
bring out the rum
we heard that brownnosing bridesmaid
she said that someone's second guessing
so bring out the rum
this love is a reaction to indifference

Angels pass this over like some biblical fall out

I'm sensing something socially mechanical
who's playing angles
when sometimes things are held too clinical
bullshitters, they (we) say there's two type of men that chase their lovers
the one who cries and the one who's too stubborn


we think we're getting how we want to feel
and in no way will it suffer
we're still drinking
so bring out the rum
they're going to show us a good time
with or without a ceremony

bring out the rum!
some love is a devotion ot indifference

we're verified by a number
you're talking to failure
we buccaneered our mild manners just to be here

what you don't believe or see now you will know later
I idolize this man that you will know later
we got a ways to go before we idolize this man
I think we should go because i'm sensing something......

Not sure on the title, but I'm pretty sure the song is a condemnation of the marriage convention. They are bemoaning how marriage is part of the 'society machine' and how what should be a celebration of two peoples' genuine love for one another has become a shallow husk, built on disingenuous feelings. They drink to achieve an artificial sense of happiness, to replace the true joy they should be feeling from marriage.

Well, that's what I think ;p

anybody got a lock on what they think the title means? I also think the last part of the last chorus goes like this:

" ... the one who cries, and the one who never bothers".

@thelastsandlins Lol, with Hopesfall, it's always hard to decipher the songs. Although, I think Bird Flu is about drug addiction.

I can see why you think it's 'never bothers'. However, I've always heard it as 'will be the only one who'll follow'.

Obviously not 100% sure on that (and I'm not saying you're wrong, by the way!)
