Lyrics:
The roots of the matter run miles deep
This is the era of eternal sleep
Please everybody now but please be advised
Nothing's going away just cuz' you're closing your eyes
This is the harvest of some rotten seeds
This surely isn't any mystery
This is the fruit of-a the poison trees
You better ask yourself what you believe
I see a storm it is coming down
And I can feel my bones creak
I know you can feel it too
But you just to scared
Are you just to scared to speak?
The wire is taped now and crackling hot
Words from a burning screen will make your stomach knot
Fear the hopeless and lock the door
Sweet safety, praise the lord
The loud voices got the signals locked
All the past heroes now outlined in chalk
Well that'll teach the world to not walk the walk
Show your face out in the light and hear the pistols pop
Well.. this is the harvest of some rotten seeds
This surely isn't any mystery
This is the fruit of-a the poison trees
You better ask yourself what you believe
I see a storm it is coming down
And I can feel it in my bones
I know you can feel it too
But you think that you're
You think that you're all alone
Old tactics leaves you face down on the bricks
This new dog knows some terrible tricks
Turn the cameras off and it doesn't exist
Thats a lesson well learned back in 1966
This is the harvest of some rotten seeds
This surely isn't any mystery
This is the fruit of the poison trees
You better ask yourself what you believe
I see a storm it is coming down
And I can feel my bones creak
I know you can feel it too
But you just to scared
Are you just to scared to...
A storm it is coming down
And I can feel it in my bones
I know you can feel it too
But you just think that you're
You think that you're all alone

You know, I don't expect these songs to be topping charts anytime soon, but I do feel that these songs will stand the test of time. Hopefully in time they'll be listened to by a much larger audience .

[@NovaGN]

Well I mean I think the 2008 autotune wave was way worse than what we have now. Atleast Despacito, Havana, and the like sounds nice. Not my cup of tea, but I can see why people like it. IDK, could also be due to me mellowing out in recent years.

[@NovaGN]

Thanks, I try.

[@cliffesp]

Even if these songs aren't heard by a larger audience I dont think that matters, I think enough people resonate with these tunes that they'll pass them down to their friends family and children which will definitely make them stand the test of time.

I used to naked train surf on top of a box car with a 5 liter bag of wine and now... I've got 5 kids this music will be handed down through the centuries

This song and band is amazing for a three man band, this music is so original god bless

[@CJ-71113]

This song is so relevant to what is going on right now. The Devil Makes Three are my essential music. Went to their Cleveland show last year and had tickets for the one in May. They will definitely be my first show when it's safe enough to do so! 🎸🎻🎶🎵😈🎰 One of the best concerts ever! They are amazing to see live.

[@elliothellyer933]

all I can say is "Yep."

[@Tomm9y]

There are a lot of third party videos of The Devil Makes Three. Perhaps your YT channel would get a higher profile with some original videos. Although, perhaps you have calculated you'll get a wider, more suitable exposure via other channels.

[@BumAssGolfer]

Just the truth. So poignant in these times, stay strong people.
