krotix Not as Gothy as Bad Beach, but I felt a need to bring them up. Negative Measures are HC but not straight thrash. In a sea of bands that need a defining sound...they established one. Favorite track: Nothing Will Change.

Reality 02:12
Empathy is dead Washed away in a sea of fear and dread Empathy is dead Remove yourself from the things inside your head Find a way Isolate your memory Find a way Compassion's not the enemy Empathy is Dead If this is your reality Separate yourself from everything If this is your reality Separate yourself entirely

Superstition caught my eye Bringing about this fear to die A level mind, but a drained repetition Heavy handed in a daze It lives in everything you crave The stolen words that skew an admission Beating out this thought of loss A little break to steer my course I should know actions need my permission Yet there's nothing to imply The fact that I don't want to die I only try to brush that ambition Are you a defeatist in your own head? Pushing against everything you dread Hold it inside, it's no loss of time Nothing will change Are you alive Breathing inside Aware of your own sense of pride Know that you're just a reaction A result of good and bad All clustered in a moving bag Of bones, memory A living contraption Does your ego let you in Or shut of every little thing I should know that my truth is just interaction These compulsions blind the way I'll leave it for another day It's only my own revulsion Trust and loyalty all turn dust Confidence in a chance left to rust Burn a grin, take it all on the chin It's only me, a old dark impulsion
3.
Hate 02:30
Told a million times before Never believe what you heard before We're all waiting for something terrible They're going to send us all to hell This hate that you preach Is going to break us so violently This hate that you preach Is going to make us the enemy Words unspoken, reverted to lies Twisted images, misshapen cries Removing blame from those responsible Hate harboured only builds a wall
4.
SAP 02:31
Hold yourself at no price We all see through different eyes Can you accept your lack of light? Or just burn out in a fucking fight Should you know yourself inside? Fear all the things you try to hide Don't try to fight yourself You'll just burn out your own self doubt Fallen out of loop Everything inside my mind Is a skewed portrait of you Could I ever compare The way you hate yourself Or should I even care? Bonfires turn my mind out Out of line with the things we all doubt Inspirations going to fade Are these blueprints left out of place? Let it go, put your blame away It won't solve the crisis of yesterday Lost out with the way you perceive Things you know and things you believe
5.
Mainstay, I'll float away Put myself in a hazy grey It's all a mess, but I've been blessed What are we going to say? Disgruntled cries from a useless mind A little surprise will pass me blind Don't even watch, it's all just fine Drawing a blank on another line Just one way Through today Just one way Today It's all just time keeping me unkind A little rest wouldn't hurt your pride You need to keep yourself preoccupied But your realities a state of mind
6.
Justify 02:15
You're running out of time Trying to justify You're running out of mind Trying to pacify You want to justify And then again we're all just flies Floating around till we're lullaby Change mentality to cross your line A little lie you'll be just fine Slow movements in my head breaking up time as it runs through thread
7.
I don’t care where you’re going and I don’t care that you’re gone away ‘Cause since I isolated you I’ve been relishing my days You taught me that it was okay To do nothing with my life To waste my time away And accept when things aren’t right You don’t deserve me You say you understand me You want to play God And you think you know the real world You think you’ve been through some shit But you don’t know the half of it You can come back crying When you find yourself on bathroom walls If you tell me you’re on my side Well I'll tell you that you’re not right I won’t accept it You’re not fighting the good fight I hate to say it but you’re wrong You’ve been worthless all along Leave before all your moral understanding is gone Create your own identity Based on your reality Create a personality That isn’t artificial When all is done we’ve come to know Where all your aspirations go You’ve stooped the lowest of the low You defiled your own temple You try to observe me You say you understand me You want to play God And you think you know the real world You think you’ve been through some shit But you don’t know the half of it You can come back crying When you find yourself on bathroom walls Enjoy your grandiose delusion All your theories are unproven There is only one solution Kill yourself, be forgiven You try to observe me You say you understand me You want to play God Run yourself an acid bath And drop the radio This is your last performance So please put on a show Just how much about me Do you think you really know Just how much about me Do you think I let you know
