Artist picture
hangdog, is an alternative rock band from montreal with great hooks and memorable lyrics.
The Tell Bar is Shawn's second release containing short, hook driven alternative rock songs filled with universal themes, inspired stories, and tragic events such as the title track, The Tell Bar, which is in memory of the Jonestown Massacre. The lyrics takes one back to the times where what was being said was an important facet of the song and Shawn does not disappoint with great lyrics throughout the album including, "The truth's a mirror of your will, distorted as a fisherman's tale" -Stratosphere and "I can arm myself with a gun or a mind, they both tend to get the headlines" -Timeless in the Black.

Story behind the song
On the last day of mixing my previous album, 11:11, I sat at the piano and wrote Fire engine in 20 minutes.
Lyrics
Fire Engine: Written by S. Sevo© 2004 I gave nothing got nothing in return Me to when I’m 5 years old Return my playful hands my toys I wanna be loud like a fire engine horn Took me till now to care about Myself, oh I’ve got it now Tickle me, make me soar, Make me scream on a 100ft dive Into the sea Get out while you still can, life’s a one way Do the best you can… Whistling, ”it’s off to work I go” Smiling, cause patience is a virtue Happy now, grateful too Have you ever had a sign sent down to you? While we laughed my tiredness passed Weak as I was from the constant hum Of living, of sleeping, of dying, You gave new beat to my heart Get out while you still can, life’s a one way Do the best you can…
