You Know We're All So Fond of Dying Lyrics

It's a lesson in progress
How far away can we go?
Everything is progress
As far as I know

Take a life and make it something less, please
Anything more than stupid tests
And tests and tests and tests
I found the answer to my selfishness

Cry, cry, cry
Please stop killing us
(You know we're all so fond of dying)
Please stop using us
They'll never shut up
Please stop killing us
(You know we're all so fond of dying)
Please stop using us

It's an acceptable practice
And I am loathe to say
Snuffed out the wicks from a sea of candles
Maybe Jesus could take it away

Please stop killing us
(You know we're all so fond of dying)
Please stop using us
They'll never shut up
Please stop killing us
(You know we're all so fond of dying)
Please stop using us

The carousel comes 'round again
I cry and scream, but I pretend
They're running down and I can't chase
Or put that smile out of place

Say it isn't so!

Come, they come to take them all away
But I'm not going home
Come, they come to take my soul away
But I'm not going home

Cry, cry, cry
And we hear them sing

Hailing from Morris, Minnesota, Children 18:3 started out in 1999 as a ska band. Today, they play hard punk rock music. The band is comprised of siblings David Hostetter (lead vocals/guitar), LeeMarie Hostetter (bass/vocals), and Seth Hostetter (drums).

Their indie debut, a 6-track EP titled Places I Don't Want To Go, was self-released in 2004.

After a few years of trying, they finally won the music tournament at Club 3 Degrees, a premiere Christian music club in Minneapolis, in may of 2005. Almost a year later, in March of 2006, they self-released Songs of Desperation, an 8 track EP, featuring the fan favorite "The Cowboy Song."

In early 2007 the band announced that they had signed with the Christian record label Tooth & Nail Records. The band released their first full length CD, which was self-titled, in February of 2008, under the T&N label. Three songs from "Songs of Desperation," as well as a couple crowd favorites we recorded onto this album.

They have since released two more albums with Tooth & Nail Records:
"Rain's 'A Comin'"; in 2010
"On The Run", in 2012
