Something Underneath
Lyrics
Raise up out the dirt
And the rain beat down, down, down
And the sun beat down, down, down
And beat in the ground, ground, ground
Down, down, down
Down, down
Massacre in the making
There's not a place you can take it
Breaking the face of the planet
Waiting for something to shake
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down (shake it down)
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down (shake it down)
Break it down, break it down, break it down (go)
Down, down, down
Down, down
Raise up
How high?
Broken middle finger pointed right up to the sky
Broken fist and hammer hangin' right up in the light
Waiting patient for the signal when the time is right to bring it down
(They ain't ready for it)
Shh, bring it down, bring it down, bring it down (bring it down)
Swing it down, swing it down, swing it down (swing it down)
Break it down, break it down, break it down (go)
Down, down, down
Down, down
Raise up
Birds free, words hang like neck on tree
Or more like secret on country
Au contraire, more like skin on teeth
Thin veil don't tell what it don't see
Many mini things are multiplying at the bottom where the base of everything is from
Hot, hit the core, work on the floor
Don't stop 'til they're strong enough to hold the hordes (oh god)
Air is heavy, you wet, the sweat
Drown, drown, drown (drown)
Nobody better make a sound, sound, sound (shh)
Break it down, break it down, break it down (go)
Down, down, down
Down, down
Raise up
Something is underneath, the weight's off
Birds in the trees don't sing
As if the mountain peaks would break off
Storms overseas forming
It's on the way, maybe a day off
Call it a reborning
Any living thing that could stave off
Surely will be mourning
Core snap like yolk
Floor crack like joke
More cat eye opens
Sky racked like coat
Crust break like bread
Dust spread like butter
Forward, get a hoard to make the enemy suffer
Muscle that was forged up in the center of Mother Earth
Utterly formless pours out from the gutters
And bubbles and sputters into a solid and moves quick
Teeth sharp like collar
Bone hard like dick
Fuck up all obstacle
Obelisk topple, awkward
Down, down, down
And more thick sounding thunder cracks surround the world
With the force to rack brain
Pain vice like grip
They all trip
Struggle down, struggle down, struggle down (struggle down)
Tumble down, tumble down, tumble down (tumble down)
Break it down, break it down, break it down (go)
Down, down, down
Down, down
Raise up
Running through the streets, they don't stop
Cannibal canopy coming to claim the main spot in evolution
Nothing to do with brain
Insane thoughts and sentient ideas
The safety's saying drop that shit (drop that shit)
What's cooler than being cool? (Ice cold)
Freezer gotta feeling to bite
And those spikes
Break it down, break it down, break it down (go)
Down, down, down
Down, down (up)
Falling is the same as
Jumping is the same as
Waiting for the fall
That you all say is coming
You know that you gotta make the call
And if you saying something other than it's time to end it all
Then you were playing silly games like there is nothing there to follow
Wallow in the shallow water where they're dying
All these calls of returning to the birth
Without the comfort of a wall
Inside a womb in Mother Earth
Again she doesn't care
The sprawl of bodies lying on the shore
And they'll make anyone at fault
If there was anyone to see the water
With animals small enough for them to let them be
To feed on pieces of them all
Whatever's left of all the people once they give up on the raw
'Cause that will be a lovely treat to everybody that's involved
Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down (lay it down)
Keep it down, keep it down, keep it down (keep it down)
Break it down, break it down, break it down (go)
Down, down, down
Down, down
Raise up
Something is underneath, the weight's off
Birds in the trees don't sing
As if the mountain peaks would break off
Storms overseas forming
It's on the way, maybe a day off
Call it a reborning
And any living thing that could stave off
Surely will be mourning
