Exhale
Kylesa
Watching your back, detractors everywhere Speaking as loud as humanly possible Earful of whispers, hearsay and rumors Opinions too many beating down your door It's your own fault Choose your own truth There is no validity or any actuality Just a morbidity Loss of all capacity
3:02
Unspoken
Kylesa
Only time will tell Wait for it to heal My own heart has failed me You looked the other way A heated reaction With thoughts of yesterday You have some reservations I've seen that look before Now half of me is empty But we were born as one
4:47
Grounded
Kylesa
Earth has me grounded Standing without words Echo of your voice Infinite reflections of empty space Need words to describe this place
3:13
We're Taking This
Kylesa
What knowledge do you hold that hasn't been bought or sold? Trick tip to the times ahead Influence is limited Pushed down and beaten The underdog bites back Herds of sheeps are crowding around False prophet's repeating sound We play this how we want To your bullshit juggernaut Can't draw a straight line With a shaking hand Filling up space With a sharpened edge Watch from the sidelines Then walk away Say fuck it all Then walk away What goes around comes back around
2:41
Long Gone
Kylesa
What you see clearly right here before me Sounding reflection or a mirage You've lost yourself Trusted relation with trepidation What were you thinking when you stole the sun We have been broken in darkness unspoken Your tears are flying a purchased disguise What you see clearly right here before me Sounding reflection or a mirage You've lost yourself
3:27
What Does It Take
Kylesa
Simplify the complicated Regres necessary function The walls all seem narrow Is this really happening Is this really happening Lost all control It has all been let go What does it take Hospitals and heartbreak To the live the lives we want Hospitals and heartbreak
2:04
Steady Breakdown
Kylesa
Ever wonder why we fail Steady breakdown of your free will Determination is undermind Crack the shell, it's made of glass Did your really think that it could last I don't think so Crack the shell, it's made of glass We all hoped that it would last What a let down You were determined to prevail Primal instinct not to fail Steady breakdown and loss of free will
4:48
Low Tide
Kylesa
It's on again It's off again Where did it Begin When does it end I thought it was over, but It is still not the end All we have is right now We'll watch the clouds turn inside out If the sun doesn't rise That's fine I don't Mind It's ok I prefer siting in the dark anyway It's winter, it's low tide Let's hang for awhile And watch the world die On the last day we were alive
3:35
Vulture's Landing
Kylesa
Tell me how do you fell at home here You're just a wolf in sheep's attire Beware the vultures have landed Tell me what it's like lying through life Vulture's landing
3:15
Quicksand
Kylesa
Bloody teeth bouncing in the quicksand This dream repeats I'm coughing up my own blood Then I knew I was shedding more than bone Trying to tell you But I'm choking on my own blood This dream repeats I'm coughing up my own blood
2:35
Drifting
Kylesa
Can you hear Can you see Can you sense that I am near I let go when you left I caught water with both hands I saw a flower in the sun Tore up its root and it drifted away When you left, I let go Watched you shed your life Watched you drift away
5:25

Shifting effortlessly from heavy hard rock riffs to punk-infused beats to even barren cold wave concoctions, 'Ultraviolet' sees KYLESA progressing in ways never thought possible and is undoubtedly one of the best records of 2012.
