Shore 01:08
there's a long silence in me a river running deep sometimes i walk beside it and i forget to watch it i don't wish that i was dying anymore each time i slip, it's not quite as heavy as before and i, i'm standing at the shore

Dim 03:19
It kinda felt like you were falling apart But you just stayed where you are Dropping sugar into a glass It dissolves and you know it won't last It's all dim lights and warm beer Telling me that I should be here I'm swinging in, I'm swinging out I think I'm bringing you down So write me in and write me out I don't want to hear it now You can't see through all your plans Take me there and let me out I don't want to let you down I don't want to hold your hand I don't want to hear your plans You're slipping through like kerosene Can't be held but still won't leave Drawn up high in nighttime air Burning, numbing, I don't care Falling in, I'm falling out I think I'm coming back down So write me in and write me out I don't want to hear it now You can't see through all your plans Take me there and let me out I don't want to let you down I don't want to hold your hand I don't want to hold your hand I don't want to hold your hand I don't want to hold your hand I don't want to hold your hand

Back to You 03:51
I never knew poetry 'til I heard it in your voice Digging through the months of dusty words I'm trying to get myself to a place where I feel calm I'm falling like I never had a choice All I say and all I do Won't ever change the fact I don't know how to talk to you My matchbox feelings are all used up I'm burning down Trying to get myself back to you Back to you This calm explosion slipping in between my fingers I feel it passing me by I've been saving this slow life for you But you left it behind All I say and all I do Won't ever change the fact I don't know how to talk to you My matchbox feelings are all used up I'm burning down Trying to get myself back to you Back to you Back to you Back to you I don't miss you like it ended You were never really here All I say and all I do Won't ever change the fact I don't know how to talk to you My matchbox feelings are all used up I'm burning down Trying to get myself back to you

Don't 04:51
Take the inside out Break it down bit by bit I'll make sense of this When I can see how things fit I don't need this, I don't I don't need this I hear all the noise but All I see if your mouth Keep yourself down low I'll anchor myself in the sound Your skin feels like scripture And it burns like a flame I know you're right here but I'm trapped in your game I'm trapped in it I don't need this, I don't I don't need this, I don't I don't need this, I don't I don't need this, I don't Spit your name right back out Can't stand the taste or the sound I still feel you standing on my teeth All I want is just to leave Just to leave I don't need this, I don't I don't need this, I don't I don't need this, I don't I don't feel this, I don't I don't feel this, I don't I don't need this, I don't

Lions 04:02
I'm dreaming of downtown brick Summer rain, I've been up for days My strength might building up But I still feel myself drifting away I might always have a little piece of you in my teeth You might always have a bit of my heart on your sleeve Throw me in the pit I don't want to fight you, no I want to feel every inch of this I'm filling my lungs with smoke Calling it self defense I want you to kiss me hard I want to feel the suspense I might always have a little piece of you in my teeth You might always have a bit of my heart on your sleeve Throw me in the pit I don't want to fight you, no I want to feel every inch of this I'm breathing like surgery I don't think I know myself at all I'm filling myself with rocks And I'm still shocked when I start to fall Down, down, down, down Throw me in the pit I don't want to fight you, no I want to feel every inch of this I want to feel every inch of this

It was dawn when I heard the boom I looked over and knew you felt it too I don't know what to say or what to do Yeah, I'm shaking, but I'm shaking with you Spent my life looking up at the stars Thinking 'bout how their warmth is so far Now it's here and I've got a perfect view Yeah, I'm running, but I'm running with you It's all on the ground The whole entire sky is falling down Yeah, we're weaving in and weaving out All these silver painted sounds And I'm not letting go of you now We lost our vision lying under the floor You said stay hidden 'cause they'll be back for more With no time to regret and nothing left to lose Yeah, I'm shaking, but I'm shaking with you It was so loud, then nothing at all We saw our chance, so we took off down the hall Made it this far, making it is all that's left to do Yeah, I'm shaking, but I'm shaking with you If you go, then I'm going too Ooooh Ooooh It's all on the ground The whole entire sky is falling Yeah, we're weaving in and weaving out All these silver painted sounds Morning light unnanounced Through the window shades drawn down I am here and this is now I know I feel it in your mouth It's all on the ground The whole entire world is taking us down and We're all gonna die Staring out at explosions and city lights And I'm not letting go of you now No, I'm not letting go of you know

I burned down my old homes Like a fire and built new bridges all alone I should have seen the signs But you were miles away before I had the time Take everything you need Magnolia trees in spring I'm not sure that I want you back You are overflowing with words I do not have Your hands burn like gasoline All white and blue pain pulling at my seams And I do not have the time To wait for you and just get left behind Take everything you need Magnolia trees in spring I'm not sure that I want you back You are overflowing with words I do not have Take everything you need Magnolia trees in spring I'm not how to fight you back You are overflowing with words I do not have

Lifeline 04:51
I don't have to let this go I could keep it all While I'm learning how to stand And keep my head above Your rise and your fall I believed everything you said I'm just lost and caught up in the sound I saw everything you did And I've got nowhere else to set it down Holding your hand like a lifeline Like it's everything I know I'm still completely terrified And I'm just as scared to let you go I don't want to lose my grip While it's all falling through 'Cause I know that if I step back You'll step back too I believed everything you said I'll just keep pretending it's the same I'm counting every breath 'Til you take my lungs and leave me with the weight Holding your hand like a lifeline Like it's everything I know I'm still completely terrified And I'm just as scared to let you go I'm up in arms I've got you in my sight I'm starting to wonder If you are worth the fight Holding your hand like a lifeline Like it's everything I know I'm still completely terrified And I'm just as scared to go alone

In Between 03:59
Head on your chest And your heart's beating heavy Mine is a mess Cursing you and your brevity I'm all yours to use without regret You're a quick fix, just one more cigarette Speeding up Just to get stopped in my tracks So this is love And I'm slowing down way too fast Been here before Stuck in arms holding tight But they were not yours So I'm trying to see it right I'm all yours to use without regret You're a quick fix, just one more cigarette Speeding up Just to get stopped in my tracks So this is love And I'm slowing down way too fast Sometimes I can't get back to sleep Holding all this is such a heavy thing I know that standing in between don't make it safe I can't keep waiting 'til your name stops tasting so strange And I fell in love Like you'd jump out a window Broken and rough But it still felt so slow Speeding up Just to get stopped in my tracks So this is love And I'm slowing down way too fast
10.
Hold 02:44
I can't see what you've got in this for me Why I'm still chasing someone new But I can't stop when I see you still on top Still racing while I run the other way I wish we could make this work but we won't I wish I had the time but I don't I'm learning what you hold is just another hand You'll have to learn how to let go I can see into every possibility Secrets walking slowly through the sound But I can't leave, I'm aching for release To drop it all and take you with me I wish we could make this work but we won't I wish I could make this hurt but it won't I don't have anywhere to go from here I can't keep choosing between comfort and fear I'm learning what you hold is just another hand You'll have to learn how to let go I'm learning what you hold is just another hand You'll have to learn how to let go

We've been drinking all night Catching glimpses of what's in sight It's been so long and we're still trying to get it right But we're young and we've got time I've been saving up all my rainy days So when it all comes down I can take you away I know it's been rough I know you're enough November's quiet love I know you're enough I woke up still drunk The first thing I reached for was your touch I never knew that I could feel all this I never knew what I'd miss I've been saving up all my rainy days So when it all comes down I can take you away I know it's been rough I know you're enough November's quiet love I know you're enough I know you're enough I know you're enough I know you're enough I know you're enough

about

Kinesics Denver, Colorado

An alt-rock group based in Denver, Kinesics is inspired by Daughter, Manchester Orchestra, and the spirit of Saddle Creek, apparent in their impactful lyrics with almost too many words packed into each line and spacey instrumentation. The songwriting in this project primarily functions as a processing mechanism for everyday communication and interaction.
