Official Music Video for Broken Machines by Call Me King. Videography by Timekeeper Studios. Recorded at Glass Arrow Studios. Produced and Engineered by Jordan DiSorbo. Lyrics: Broken Machines The cracks you used to know Spiderwebbing through my heart my hands They're pushing me apart like slivered flats of land Ever since the day you replaced me The breasts of a blossoming beauty Wrapped in torn scraps a once-elegant dress Structures decaying soundly Magnified meaningless markings of majesty A Hunter to his prey Fleeting footsteps flowing One under the weight Of two hearts heavy falt'ring I'm a broken machine Made with overwound springs Watch me slowly fall apart Slowly fall apart I'm all on my own With nowhere to call home Watch me slowly fall apart Slowly fall apart I move Grinding gears inside my body but I smile The effort almost breaks me every time I'm drowning Every Time my head dips I can't help but wonder if it's the last time I'm floating Life's my surface flailing for a single gasp I can't (see her) Again Alone we're suffering In this crater we call home I've lost the will to take (A hunter to his prey) A life so beautiful I'm a broken machine Made with overwound springs Watch me slowly fall apart Slowly fall apart I'm all on my own With nowhere to call home Watch me slowly fall apart Slowly fall apart You knew exactly how this ends You're running just like all your friends I'm hunting after you again Please stop me please stop me My hands make empty homes their ends I'm stealing from those I call friends I'm broken worthless let it end I'm drowning please stop me (You've never been alive You've always been a lie No one could break in Your walls are flawless You told yourself a lie It poisoned all your mind You never waited You knew the ending You weren't weak at all Where others would all fall You stand triumphant And you can stop this The choice is yours to make To give or will you take But I will trust you I still trust you) I'm a broken machine Made with overwound springs Watch me slowly fall apart Slowly fall apart I'm all on my own With nowhere to call home Watch me slowly fall apart Slowly fall apart You knew exactly how this ends You're running just like all your friends I'm hunting after you again Please stop me Please stop me

Call Me King is a post-hardcore act based in Austin, TX. Since their founding in July of 2015, Call Me King has gathered over 11,000 followers across various outlets. Call Me King has been featured alongside nationwide acts such as Asking Alexandria, blessthefall, Emery, and more. In January of 2016, after only six months of playing together as a group, Call Me King flew to Ohio to record their debut album ...and the snow will turn to ash with founding father of progressive hardcore Craig Owens (Chiodos, D.R.U.G.S., Isles & Glaciers) as producer and Jordan DiSorbo of Before Their Eyes operating as sound engineer. atswtta was released October 7th, 2016 alongside Call Me King's first tour through the Midwest to promote the album.

Call Me King didn't take time to rest after that tour, instead doubling down on regional shows to build on their already-established fanbase. They began writing for their second LP, which is currently untitled, in January of 2017. They spent the month of August at Glass Arrow Audio in Toledo recording their second album with Jordan DiSorbo. Call Me King's video for their single "Sycamore Lane" was released in September 2017 as an Alternative Pressexclusive.

Immediately after returning from the studio, Call Me King was able to join one of their major influences, Emery, as they put on their Fan Appreciation Tour. This was a valuable experience for the band, who received incredibly positive feedback and are currently planning their next such tour.

Call Me King has recently partnered with the Inner Light Agency as management and is working toward the release of their second album, slotted for early Summer of 2018.
