about
In Dependence is about watching someone sleep. The song quickly makes fun of itself for being a ballad since ballads aren't my thing, and decides to "break the ballad rules" and put a rock breakdown in the middle. Why not?
lyrics
If there's ever air in between us, heat sensors turned you down
It's not me, it's my minions
The bastards mess around
They don't do vows
They don't know how
They just bitch and moan when you're not around
Symmetry can help you regress in years
That's how it appears
To be only half can crush sometimes, but when the pieces fit...
To be in dependence is fine, as long as your target has time
They came with the package, and I can't send them back
I wish I could do just that
You've got something in your eye, but you don't care
You're asleep
Sublime
But you'd be waving you hands everywhere if you were aware
It's surprising how much life there is in one of two closed eyes
It still moves, it knows I'm there
It will dance when I move air
Words don't mean anything
It's the voice that brings the dream
oz by lb I'm losing my ground
I'll be back
Just hang around
You've got something in your eye, but you don't care
You're asleep
Sublime
But you'd be waving you hands everywhere if you were aware
This moment of slumber deserves it's own tune
So, do you mind if I tune up?
Ballads are fun, ballads are cool
But if it's not me, there's not much I can do
Tributes are fun, tributes are cool
Maybe people will listen if we break the rules
There's nothing wrong with nothing out of the ordinary
[Insert trendy distorted quote here]
OK, now we're ready
You've got something in your eye, but you don't care
You're asleep
Sublime
But you'd be waving you hands everywhere if you were aware
It's not me, it's my minions
The bastards mess around
They don't do vows
They don't know how
They just bitch and moan when you're not around
Symmetry can help you regress in years
That's how it appears
To be only half can crush sometimes, but when the pieces fit...
To be in dependence is fine, as long as your target has time
They came with the package, and I can't send them back
I wish I could do just that
You've got something in your eye, but you don't care
You're asleep
Sublime
But you'd be waving you hands everywhere if you were aware
It's surprising how much life there is in one of two closed eyes
It still moves, it knows I'm there
It will dance when I move air
Words don't mean anything

oz by lb I'm losing my ground
I'll be back
Just hang around
You've got something in your eye, but you don't care

Chiptune and Metal are art. They require initiation. For the layman that's just noise. Well, by mixing the two, Metroid Metal make the result appealing even to the layman.

This track is so catchy. The rhythm adds to the sinister vibe that the melody is trying to convey. This is what headbanging is for.
