TTNG - Havoc in the Forum

Lyrics: Trust in time evaporates to cloud the mind into bursting, with a rain that spits off the lips, a barrage of hurtful insults. That eventually accumulate into floods of tears and heartache. That erode the coasts and storm the sails of relationships Age bitters in the mouth. Words trap in the teeth and like food decay. With the sour taste of time tripping off the tip of the tongue. Sleepless nights tied awake in beds of knots She’s known some of the best. She knows there’s no need to hold her breath. Sunk by the passing of time. The closest of friends all washed away. You’ve seen the coming of age. The crashing sound waves. You’re all but done. Shipped wrecked on a tide of tongue. Age bitters in the mouth. Words trap in the teeth and like food decay. With the sour taste of time tripping off the tip of the tongue. This Town Needs Guns (officially shortened to “TTNG”) are a math rock band originating from Oxford, United Kingdom.

Gun control and firearm laws were not an issue for the band in 2004 when the they were smaller and less popular. After gaining a stronger international following in more recent years, and as gun control became a more controvesial issue (particularly in the USA), the band’s name was starting to be miscontrued as a real sentiment. The band then made the decision to change their name to the acronym of their former name, to TTNG.
