• Melancholy - Knockout Theory

My mother the cow who still feeds me now is being tortured
Her son the bull who the fields should plough is being slaughtered
The human child in the womb who is never born for being unwanted
Melancholy in the Age of Kali
Melancholy in the Age of Kali
Kali Kali
My mother, the earth, man treats like dirt, her resources being exhausted
Ant-like astronauts, of the human race, scratch and scar the moon's beautiful face
My brother, the sun, he still shines on
He'll continue to shine for some time to come
Melancholy in the Age of Kali
Melancholy in the Age of Kali
Kali Kali
Lamentation Lamentation Lamentation (repeat)
Heavenly Father still waters the grains
Seems like tears fall as it rains
Little boy blue come blow on your horn
The sheeps in the meadow the cows in the corn
Oh sweet friend of mine from an ancient nursery rhyme
From a distant land once upon a time
Melancholy in the Age of Kali
Melancholy in the Age of Kali

The lovers of night in the fadded mouths
brought the message of the hopeless solitude
silent nature in the possessed dance bowed trees seem to pay the homage
humiliation'n'death the gods of heaven irony of things which are still passing
immortal'n'eternal march of the martyrs alone on the rock of might of existence
dying in silence conscience like the rugged velvet
empty balconies, the windows of closed lands
the rain is sappin' the blood from the death stones
of the power of naked nothingness
So ridiculous in his sudden will of fight
entanglin' the legs in mazes of eternal condemnation the hopeless of life
the smell of thousands of candles burnin' on the nameless tombs
for glory of the unknown pagan deities you're overthrowin' the monuments to
overthrow the nyth of power thorn of rose hurts your hand
too weak to beat the soulless stuff the gloom of soul and the sea of destiny
melancholy of the silent funerals dry flowers, tears like tragic jokers
no one know your name blue flowers in the moonlight

[Chorus:]
I guess we just some melancholy souls
That's why we spit these melancholy flows
Wear these melancholy clothes
Bring this melancholy everywhere he goes
Everywhere he goes
[Verse:]
Man you guys are just some rich kids
How dare you call yourself the misfits
Hope you get coals in your presents come Christmas
Man I'm sorry, I ain't eat today
Cause I didn't know what I should eat today
Full or hungry, don't know what the difference is
I just hope we work out all our differences
Cause I be flyin' where them pigeons is
I mean it's all opinion, but
[Chorus:]
I guess we just some melancholy souls
That's why we spit these melancholy flows
Wear these melancholy clothes
Bring this melancholy everywhere he goes
Everywhere he goes
[Verse 2:]
And they tell me just to breathe
(Breathe, breathe in the air, don't be afraid to care)
Oh you rappin' on this? I bet you thought you'd body this
You messin' up a classic, how you did with The Karate Kid
Bro but what the heck was I to do?
Now I see why Pia didn't sign with you
[Chorus:]
I guess we just some melancholy souls
That's why we spit these melancholy flows
Wear these melancholy clothes
Bring this melancholy everywhere he goes
Everywhere he goes
[Verse 3:]
But they tell me just to run
(Run, rabbit run, dig that hole, forget the Sun)
Oh you say you want some more?
Well your father paid for all of this
If I was rappin' like you I would help the world and call it quits
And I just rap at you anonymous
I hide behind my hate because I wish I had your confidence
But understand, my only option is
To go to school and try to be friends with all these obnoxious kids
I don't hate you, I'm jealous of how you got to live
I'm sittin' here in class and my teacher's about to pop a quiz

Loosen your tie, unbutton your shirt
Priorities straight
First things first
Relaxing as your eyes close, your hands upon the wheel
The whole of the day is stuck in your brain
Stare straight ahead as the rain comes sliding down the windshield
Tears are sliding down your face
But, I just tell myself, I have to go on living
I have to keep on breathing, even if it kills me
And in time, my words ring true: Babe, you know I love you, but I've nothing to give you, and I am no good for you
Gas station signs and white dotted lines shining at night
Lonely is mine
I'm speeding on the way home
What am I rushing to? Is it glowing TVs? Or indie movies? I'll try anything to keep me busy
I'm so afraid to let go, but I'm scared of holding on
Still, I just tell myself (as I go on living, as I keep on breathing) that this will one day kill me
But, in time your words ring true: Son, you know I love you. I've always been there for you
What more could I have for you? So, slow your heart down, and close your eyes, now
Let go of your thoughts, now, and slow your words down
So I just tell myself, I need to go on living
I need to keep on breathing

Make the sadness go away
Come back another day
For years I've tried to teach
But their eyes are empty
Empty, too, I have become
For them I must die
A sad and troubled race
An ungrateful troubled place
I see the sadness in their eyes
Melancholy in their cries
Devoid of all the passion
The human spirit cannot die
Look at the pain around me
This is what I cry for
Look at the pain around me
This is what I'll die for
Make the sadness go away
Come back another day
The things I've said and done
Don't matter to anyone
But still, you push me to see
something I can never be
Why am I their shattered king
I don't mean anything
I see the sadness in their eyes
Melancholy in their cries
Devoid of all the passion
The human spirit cannot die
Look at the pain around me
This is what I cry for
Look at the pain around me

Clock ticks away, life starts to fade, and you’re just left with nothing
Here comes the light, therefore unite, at least you’re doing something
Salt shaker on the right side (woah)
Can’t find where nothing goes
Trapped inside a hapless stage from head to toe
Your quintessential puppet show
Everyone’s a critic and I don’t think I can take it anymore
Read a waiver, sign it, lick it, stamp it, throw it out the door
Just for the record, I’m not taking part in any of this ‘status quo’
You’re slowing
Keep going
You’re throwing
Throwing it all away
I’ll save the world, I’ll break the mold
I won’t go melancholy
I’ll steal the sun, I’ll break the glass
Defy the ordinary
Fire at will, set sights for thrill
Forget memento mori
Just count on me, ‘cause I won’t be
Your average front page story
Clock ticks away, life starts to fade, and you’re just left here breathing
Just please the crowd, fail plain out loud, and they’ll go on not caring
Please keep all hands off the merchandise (woah)
That’s one I’ve heard before
I can’t believe you’re really satisfied and all
With being just another John Doe
Everybody’s watching, but nobody’s gonna’ see you if you run
Flip a coin and spin the bottle, pull the trigger on a gun
If it’s a crime to take a risk then let ‘em cuff me for a job-well-done
You’re slowing
Keep going
You’re throwing
Throwing it all away
I’ll save the world, I’ll break the mold
I won’t go melancholy
I’ll steal the sun, I’ll break the glass
Defy the ordinary
Fire at will, set sights for thrill
Forget memento mori
Just count on me, ‘cause I won’t be
Your average front page story
Oh, here we go again
Just in time for things to end
I’ll save the world, I’ll break the mold
I won’t go melancholy
I’ll steal the sun, I’ll break the glass
Defy the ordinary
Fire at will, set sights for thrill
Forget memento mori
Just count on me, ‘cause I won’t be
