City Lights 05:31
Everyday I try to find what’s going wrong I used to blame myself for all the things around Maybe I’m not the only stranger in this world But I am the one that everybody’s talking about It’s just the city lights... Each day I feel that I am demented I have to leave, but this is not the time I want to think but thoughts never define If the sirens I’ve heard, can keep me in line Sometimes I feel alone in this old place My brain and my soul imprison in the jail of my life I can’t wait, I need to escape from their hands I just need to go, against the city lights I need to get away I need to get away I need to get away I need to get away I need to get away I need to get away I need to get away I need to get away

Baby don't leave me I'm not used to say goodbye. Baby I said don't leave come on and treat me right. Boy I'm crying on your knees and praying all night. Don't leave me, don't leave me. Don't leave me. I wanna feel your body I need the taste of your kiss. Baby I wanna feel your body I want you to release me. I'm stuck in your love, baby. I want to be free. Don't leave me, don't leave me. Don't leave me. I'm full with your lies and your fake love, yeah. I'm tired with your make up smile baby I don't feel right. I still forgive you baby 'cause I love you so much. Don't leave me don't, don't, don't, don't... Don't leave me 'cause I love you so much

Lay Me Down 04:21
Hmm maybe baby I got a secret that I want you to hear. Come close to me. I wanna feel your body near me, then I’m gonna give a chance to you to hear my story and my secret, too. It doesn’t matter what you’re gonna say. I used to fall, and I used to pray. CHORUS Lay me down. I need you now to lay me down. Lay me down. Come on and use me with your crown. Lay me down. I’m too high, oh I’m not so proud. Lay me down. Come and use me leave me on the ground. I hope you understand, what I’m talking ‘bout. I’m a bad girl With a dirty mind and filthy mouth. All I really need from you is baby live your life. Without these rules and be unwise. I just wanna say, yeah. Ooh ooh yeah (solo) Lay me down. I need you now to lay me down. Lay me down. Come use me with your crown. Lay me down. I’m too high, oh I’m not so proud. Lay me down. Come use me leave me on the ground. Yeah Ooh ooh Lay me down.

Angel 05:40
Momma told me that life ain’t real My hands are dirty come wipe my tear Where I’m going, where is my place Cold blood ain’t flowing in any race CHORUS I need my angel Straight from hell To come and ring my My own death bell How can I love you, nobody can Touched by the devil, but your eyes see God You think I’m crazy, is why I need you so These empty bottles won’t let me grow CHORUS I need my angel Straight from hell To come and ring my My own death bell You are my angel Come heal my scars And now I’m dying Behind steel bars CHORUS I need my angel Straight from hell To come and ring my My own death bell

KOFAX 05:38
You better take my haversack of love It will be sunken to whiskey with the pain of my heart So come on, and get it I’m drunk in your love Waiting in front of my dead memories Crying for your lies and your fake kiss Still waiting babe To call me your girl And all that I wanted Was a place for you and me I can’t live my life You are part of me Feeding my sorrow Then stunt me to be free Love’s dying in time Rain dowses my head And the moon is crying Over my dying bed I wish that I was dreaming I’ve smelled the scent of death

about

Resonance 21:16 is an anthology of compositions that gradually infuse the raw character of the blues-rock genre, with an abundant atmosphere of contorted effects extracted from iterative 90s trip-hop patterns.
Preserving the aesthetics, each composition of music and lyrics, creates a different story-telling journey that stimulates and amplifies the five senses and beyond, decluttering the listener’s mind, spirit, and emotions.
Culminating into a sense of paranoia in the woods, the black (anis) birds traverse as a cluster in the comfort of their freedom, and summon every human and every soul, to follow their journey and listen to their melodic distortion resonating in the whisper of the wind.
The “Resonance” experience is catalytic, and strives in its intense and vibrating echo, to augment the covalent bond, and to stipulate the attachment between the band and their auditing followers.
“21:16” denotes the time the five members of the band created a harmonious covenant and a cogent bond, as a symbolic depiction of their inception date which is the 2nd of January, 2016.
