Break New Ground
04:45
|
|||
|
Make the noose tight
And I’ll just wiggle slowly
Make me hold tight
And I’ll embrace a new way
Innocent corpses
float silently away
Like a river of death
That flows into our brains
Slowly they’re starting to break us down
But slowly we’re starting to break new ground
Surrounding the center
and swimming in cocaine
shoveling feed into a
dimly lit space
Twitching with harmony
Desperate to fly
Moments from showcasing
Tears on display
Slowly they’re starting to break us down
But slowly we’re starting to break new ground
Take all my money
It won’t help your cause
Burn through the night
Waiting for endless applause
You’re whispering something
I can see it from the corner of my eye
Your lips they are shaking
While you’re holding a cold, wet knife
Time heals all if you can
Learn to let go
Frozen still in dark rooms
Exposed to light
Scrub the tiles
Hungry and underpaid
Burn the files
And rinse out all the stains
The fear is all future
Through narrow mind’s vision
Delicate words that are
Dripping like paint
Humble yet proud
All these tactics get lonesome
Rewarding yourself with
the thrill of defeat
Slowly they’re starting to break us down
But slowly we’re starting to break new ground

Bianca Needs Food

Forget what you want
I said forget about the rules
I said forget about time
Because Bianca needs food
Forget what you’ve heard
You’ll get wet from the drool
I said forget about time
Because Bianca needs food
Bianca needs food
Forget what you’ve learned
I said forget about the schools
Then you’ll forget about time
Because Bianca needs food
Bianca needs food

Walking On The Shells

Walking on the shells
That you spit out
I know that it’s cause you care
This wound just never gets
To heal up because
You keep peeling off the scab
But there you are
Like the roots under a tree
They’d bury me
If they ever got the chance
The silence of the heart
That chokes on life
Because it forgets to ever eat the cake while they can
But there you are
We don’t want you to ruin your life
We can’t stand by and not give advice
You have lost all of your self respect
We don’t recognize you anymore
We don’t want you
to ruin your life
The torment you
Receive you advertise
So hold on

Chainsaw
02:39
|

The motives and sideshows that lead us to new roads
the basement has corridors hidden beneath wooden floors
more camera lenses and imposter defenses
they’re all changing the meaning we need a parasitic cleaning
with a nation that is pecking out from under
all the dirty fingernails
of a father who only needs us when it’s time to
pay the bills or kill for money
with a chainsaw, it’d be nice to
sever ties to all the organized corruption
when you thought it was safe
just when you... thought it was safe
why do you what you do when you do with your chainsaw
I can mislead you
When I need to
You had to struggle
With the subtle
Influence I exert
To keep your organizing inert
All of the treason’s
Been gift-wrapped in economic reason
With the current rate of going
We’ll be throwing
All our rights away for “freedom”
What a blurry line
We’ll all stand behind
Afraid of asking
Any of the wrong questions
when you thought it was safe
just when you... thought it was safe

Let It Go
05:01
|
|||
|
Take them up and I’m gonna take them down
I don’t care if they all drown
It only starts to hurt us when we’re wrong
Take them up by the back outside
Cause I don’t care if we all die
It only starts to hurt us when we’re wrong
When you’re wrong you can’t see
That it’s all a disease
That just wraps it’s cold fingers
Around us around us
Take them up and I’m gonna take them down
I don’t care if what they have found
It only starts to hurt us when we’re wrong
Take them up by the back outside
Because I don’t care if they all die
It only starts to hurt us when we’re wrong
When you’re wrong you can’t see
That it’s all a disease
That just wraps its warm fingers
Around us around us
Because you’re
Cold and vacant
Burn the regrets, cause
I can wait for even longer
When the system
Has a meltdown
We’ll be there to reap the spoils
Once you... let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Well now just...
For a moment
I believed that
Your illusion was the whole show
Well it’s a
Sour taste that’s
Gonna make us famous but
We’ll forget within a few months
Once we... let it go
Let it go
Let it go
As you get old, you can’t see
That it’s all a disease
That just wraps its warm fingers around us

Stepping Out
05:41
|
|||
|
Oh stepping out... will be the last time
That I met you
Informational posturing
And warm denials
Could invite a whole new reign
Scattered pieces
And ancient procedures
Climbing up ladders even today
Time after time
This covert interference
Has dirtied its hands in our domain
And that girl, she won’t save your life
And it helps that you when you cannot fight your way out
And its dirty claws get caught within the main valves
Then the cavalry gets sent to protect big business
Created myths get set in print by finance
You can’t get no more... can’t get no more
Oh stepping out will be the last time
That I met you
Send in the corps
To protect our score
It’s the old-fashioned game
Fresh copper mines
Swing like money on vines
Will satiate the trusts
From the beginning
We insist upon winning
Not just hearts, your minds
That girl won’t save your life
And the plot you pick will not resist temptation
For we own the press and we won’t accept your salvation
Till we pull the strings and buy the kings of nations
Then our old friends will head your attempts to
Investigate us
You can’t get no more... can’t get no more
Because we’re on... yes, we’re on the floor
You can’t get no... can’t get no more

Deep down underground
Where ya gonna steal your sound?

I can see your soul
I can see your soul
Now everybody knows
Oh Necromantis part two
Kicking that ass for me and you
Tell me, do you want me back soon?
Tell me, do you need me like I’m your big tycoon
I can see your soul
I can see your soul
Now everybody knows

The Brave
04:56
|

|
Way down by the water that’s where I’ll be
They’re coming to wait for me
The normal life
The moral strife
The perfect situation
To decide
The moment comes
With heavy feet
To try and hold onto the conflict
With deceit
The money lines
Still can be traced
Almost as easily as they can be erased
Way down by the water that’s where I’ll be
They’re coming too late for me
Well, the brave
Well, they all have to starve
Almost until the end
For their faith...
Well, the battle
Has been waged by the few
And there is no end in sight
For their faith in lies
Well, the brave
Well, they’ll have to hide
From electronic hands
That try to pull them down
Before their faith dies

Kindnesse Brooklyn, New York
Kindnesse is a band. Not just any band, but a kind one. A band that will bring joy to your heart by contrasting that joy
with unbearable sadness and pain.
Their music is an eclectic blend of sonically ethereal soundscape, beneath-the-rock creepings, and raucous trampling meant to awaken the spirit with class-consciousness and self-liberation.
