Beautiful Beats Lyrics

this is the moment when i was conceived.
this was the temperature when i was born.
this is the night i caught a fatal illness.
this is the method by which i was cured.
this is the garden where we were once wed.
this is the bed we slept side by side.
inside the capital we spent our lifetimes.
this is the moment in which i died softly, sweetly, silent without distress or pain.
this is the temp er a ture of my last breath.
this is the tenderness that took my life.
for endless summers we loved tirelessly.
in endless fever we walked side by side.
this is the rhythm and the sound that saved me, each restless corner of a life transformed.
this is the silence of a crippled childhood. this is the moment when i was born slowly, harshly, violently, joyfully aware.
deep in the kingdom is where i'll be, safe in the nation's custody.
burn down the house to get inside where we reside.
this is the kingdom of crashing cymbals. oohhh!
this is the nation where this song was born. oohhh!
this is the house, with burned out windows oohhh!
this was the moment, when every single music was born oohhh!

Q and Not U was a Washington, D.C. post-hardcore band from 1998-2005, signed with Dischord Records. Their sound, with fractured guitar leads and disorganized and inventive percussion, was a direct tribute to DC post-hardcore forefathers like Fugazi and Rites of Spring, but added noticably more art-damaged and rhythmic elements to their chaotic and emotional music. Members John Davis, Harris Klahr, Christopher Richards, and Matt Borlik formed the band in 1998. After Borlik's departure following the release of their first album, the band went on to record two more critically lauded LPs as a three-piece, exploring aspects of post-hardcore, dance-punk, and other disparate musical styles. Q and Not U disbanded in September 2005 after completing their touring commitments and a short farewell stand in Washington, D.C. Read more on Last.fm.
