Cozy Resistance [2023]

„This 11-tune odyssey is less an album and more a call to arms, wherein ravaging riffs collide with the poignancy of pounding punk prose.“

Music Arena [UK/Ghana]

„Through Cozy Resistance, the trio grinds in their holistic sonic realm with high-energy politically charged anthems and contemplative and emotive pieces.“

Illustrate Magazine [USA]

„We have no doubt that it will be in every possible “Best of 2023” list at the end of the year, because it is truly PHENOMENAL in its combination of artistic inclinations.“

Music For All [Brazil]

„This work is one of the best rock albums of 2023, it’s intense, it’s alive, it has purpose, it’s dense, we’re addicted to every detail of these 11 tracks, our new bedside record.“

Indieoclock [Brazil]

„Cozy Resistance continues to showcase the band’s unique blend of 80s style with punk elements, poppy anthems, and politically motivated lyrics.“

RGM Magazine [UK]

„There’s something so sonically pleasing about the unique sound THE HYBRIS have concocted. We absolutely adore this band and everything they leave their mark on!“

Mesmerized [UK]

Cozy Resistance is the sound of a generation that refuses to be silent, a generation that dances on the rubble of eroded ideals to sculpt new ones. So, ready to join the resistance in music?“

Evtravafrench [France]

„With eclectic sonic palettes, punchy drum beats and stadium-filling volumes, they are beginning to show signs of platinum-selling act. They are punk, but they are redefining punk in modern times.“

The Punk Head [USA]

„The riveting Cozy Resistance is a punk-rock proclamation fervently fusing melodies with a message.“

Lost In The Manor [UK]

Lyrics

1. Celebrate The Good Times
Let’s celebrate the good times
Been through the highs and lows
Yeah, we’re still standing tall
We are always ready for more

The world is on fire
But you know it’s okay
Laugh in the face of adversity
Keep on dancing, wild and free

Let’s celebrate the good times
Come on, enjoy ‘em while they last
Ignore the blahs of reality
Raise our glasses to the past

It’s okay, it’s okay, trust them and it’s gonna be okay

Let’s celebrate the good times
Sing at the top of our lungs
Laugh in the face of adversity
Don’t let the good times come undone

We are a powerful army
We’re an unstoppable force
We defy every hurricane
No matter what its course

Let’s celebrate the good times
Come on, enjoy ‘em while they last
Ignore the blahs of reality
Raise our glasses to the past

It’s okay, it’s okay, trust them and it’s gonna be okay

Don’t ask any questions, no matter what
We will make the most of everything we’ve got

Let’s celebrate the good times
Dance until the morning light
We’ll keep on climbing up
No matter what the height

The world is on fire
But you know it’s okay
Hold on tight and let it burn
Party on, party night and day

Let’s celebrate the good times
Come on, enjoy ‘em while they last
Ignore the blahs of reality
Raise our glasses to the past

It’s okay, it’s okay, as long as you trust us it’s gonna be okay

2. Goodbye Jerks, Heading To Earth 2
Goodbye you jerks, we’re blasting off now in style
To a secret earth 2 where we will live for a while
You can keep your wars, your greed, and all of your hate
We will find a new home and leave you all to your fate

You had your chance
We’re counting from ten this is our restart
At a glance
We’ve realized there is no other way now

Say goodbye, au revoire, addiós, hyvästi
Sayonara, farväl, güle güle, c’est la vie

Goodbye you jerks, we’re blasting off now in style
To a secret earth 2 where we will live for a while
You can keep your wars, your greed, and all of your hate
We will find a new home and leave you all to your fate

We’re finally breaking free, we are blasting away
A second earth awaits, join us! Off into a brighter day

You had your chance
We’re turning our back on you and on earth one, one
One last dance
We dance in the cloud of smoke that surrounds us

Say goodbye, au revoire, addiós, hyvästi
Sayonara, farväl, güle güle, c’est la vie

Goodbye you jerks, we’re blasting off now in style
To a secret earth 2 where we will live for a while
You can keep your wars, your greed, and all of your hate
We will find a new home and leave you all to your fate

We’re finally breaking free, we are blasting away
A second earth awaits, join us! Off into a brighter day

Goodbye you jerks, we’re blasting off now in style
To a secret earth 2 where we will live for a while
You can keep your wars, your greed, and all of your hate
We will find a new home and leave you all to your fate

We’re finally breaking free from your toxic embrace
A second earth awaits, restarting in a better place

3. Impostor Syndrome
Liar, I’m a crook and one day they will know that I’m a
Liar, my life implodes in front of your eyes. Call me a
Liar, you’ll despise my sneaky lies

If it’s your thing then just love it
If you love it then it’s good enough for them
If it’s your thing then just love it
If you love it then it’s good enough for the world

I know that you know it’s no good
You know that I know you understood

Wish you could look at your life through my own eyes
Then you could see what I see, there are no lies
Wish you could understand your life through my eyes
Then you would know what I know

Together we’ll see, you’re a star
I’m glad to prove who you really are
You’re a star
I will show you what you really are

Liar, I’m a crook and one day they will know that I’m a
Liar, my life implodes in front of your your eyes

If it’s your thing then just love it
If you love it then it’s good enough for them
If it’s your thing then just love it
If you love it then it’s good enough for the world

I know that you know it’s no good
You know that I know you understood

Wish you could look at your life through my own eyes
Then you could see what I see, there are no lies
Wish you could understand your life through my eyes
Then you would know what I know

Together we’ll see, you’re a star
I’m glad to prove who you really are
You’re a star
I will show you what you really are

Liar, I’m a crook and one day you will know that I’m a
Liar, my life implodes in front of your your eyes

4. Hey, Death!
Hey death, I see you are lurking
As the silent unknown
No break, no rest, always working

Hey death, feels like life’s too good
But I fear it won’t last
As long as I hoped it would

Not your enemy
Your friend, you will see

Don’t be scared I’m always here
Not yet for you, have no fear
There’s so much time left, there is so much to enjoy

I don’t steal, just take what’s mine
When it’s your turn, you’ll be fine
Just trust me, one day we will sing the song of joy

Hey death, sometimes it feels like you’re near
Always tryin‘ to ignore your
Tender hum in my ear

Hey death, feels like life is too good
But I fear it won’t last
As long as I hoped it would

Not your enemy
Your friend, you will see

Don’t be scared I’m always here
Not yet for you, have no fear
There’s so much time left, there is so much to enjoy

I don’t steal, just take what’s mine
When it’s your turn, you’ll be fine
Just trust me, one day we will sing the song of joy

Don’t be scared I am always here
Not yet for you, have no fear
There’s so much time left, there is so much to enjoy

I don’t steal, just take what’s mine
When it’s your turn, you’ll be fine
Just trust me, one day we will sing the song of joy

5. Falling Down
How long until we they will turn the lights out
How long until we we will all go down
How long until we see foolish pride shine
We lose the battle and end the night

How long un
How long un
How long until we will
How long until we will all go down

How long un
How long un
How long until we will
How long until we will all go down

How long until we they will turn the lights out
How long until we are falling down
How long until we see foolish pride shine
We lose the battle and end the night

How long un
How long un
How long until we will
How long until we will all go down

How long un
How long un
How long until we will
How long until we will all go down

You’re drowning deep in your guilt and sorrow
You just do not wanna feel the pain
All lives you’ll lose now in vain tomorrow
Your boldest people flee from the terrain

Red button on the board
Command comes from the lord
Hand of god wrath of death
Rotten flesh

Red button on the board
Command comes from the lord
Hand of god wrath of death
Rotten flesh

How long un
How long un
How long until we will
How long until we will all go down

How long un
How long un
How long until we will
How long until we will all go down

6. Heads Off
Last night on TV I saw demons, one demon was you

Dear Mr. president the demon, the demon was you
You’re spreading fear, you always seem on crusade for a few
Last night on TV I saw demons, one demon was you

Hey king, we’ll never bow down
Ignore your scepter, your crown
Refuse your tyranny, you’ll
See we will always stay proud

Hey queen, demission is near
Resistance mighty and clear
With every breath that we take
We will defy your power

Heads off, heads off, your end is near
We won’t give in, our call is clear
Get up, united we’ll be

Dear Mrs. president the demon, the demon is you
Your wicked reign, a sneaky game though, it’s time to break through

When in your part of the world
With strong hand and a sharp sword
You subdue people instead
Of serving those who in need

When all the ones you suppress
Stand up against hopelessness
No more oppression, no fear
Dismantle our rusty chains

Heads off, heads off, your end is near
We won’t give in, our call is clear
Get up, united we’ll be

Heads off, heads off, spread the word
Get loud, let your voice be heard
Ignite the spark, fires burn, burn, burn

Hey lord, in shadows you hide
We’re standing tall, side by side
Our fists raised high in the sky
Our torches light our way

Hey duke, our battle begun
Empires fall, one by one
Ivory towers turn black
Fists become hands again

Heads off, heads off, your end is near
We won’t give in, our call is clear
Get up, united we’ll be
Heads off, heads off, spread the word
Get loud, let your voice be heard
Ignite the spark, fires burn, burn, burn

8. The Game Of Cat And Mouse
All hands on deck, let’s roll the dice
But games are fixed, cats exploit mice
Their teeth a weapon, bellies fat
It’s still a game of mouse and cat

They hold the cheese, all roles are clear
Cats in the sun, the mice in fear
You’re the foundation of their house
It’s still a game of cat and mouse

Divided by the lines they drew
The treasures in the hands of few
Time to resist, time to fight back
Flags start to wave in perfect black

Pawns in a game made by the rich
Mice on the rise, more than a glitch
Time to fight back, time to resist
Ideas to alleviate exist

Their oven warm, your hole is frosty
Mice pay the bill, cats’ lifestyle’s costly
Their teeth a weapon, bellies fat
It’s still a game of mouse and cat

They hold the cheese, they hold all aces
Dismissive smile spread on their faces
You’re the foundation of their house
It’s still a game of cat and mouse

You too can make it to the throne
Down to your diligence alone
The top is crowded, full of perks
A game of who’s the biggest jerk

All cats and mice with the same chance
A bitter truth at second glance
Time to fight back, time to resist
Ideas how to alleviate exist

It’s time to name a farce as such
Their greedy paws hold twice as much
Their basket cozy, bellies fat
It’s still a game of mouse and cat

They’re building walls, but trapped inside
View from the tin roof gives them pride
But the foundation of their house
Is still a game of cat and mouse

Kill the cat!

Disparity not set in stone
Down to our resistance alone
Just pull their teeth, their bellies flat
No more a game of mouse and cat

Their scratching trees are trimmed and cut
Their obscene wealth, money’s a slut
Let’s turn this game, burn down their house
No more a game of cat and mouse

9. Keep The Wolves Away
You’re raising hell to survive to defend
Your families and your home, it’s your roots it’s your land
Keep out the wolves, it’s a dangerous pack, shape your knives
To flee or fight will decide if you’re dead or alive (and that’s why)

We see the pack of the wolves coming from the east
Each of their meals like an orgy like a bloody feast
We see their claws and their teeth in our evening news
Tank after tank, bombs fall closer than we chose

It is a mad man’s game, it’s a game of fire
In god we trust but with tears and with blood you pay
You lost a bit of your heart and your soul today
It is on us to help keeping the wolves away

You’re raising hell to survive to defend
Your families and your home, it’s your roots it’s your land
Keep out the wolves, it’s a dangerous pack, shape your knives
To flee or fight will decide if you’re dead or alive (and that’s why)

The wolves are hungry and thirsty, they have been for years
We welcomed the alpha wolve with honour and cheers
We watched in peace and in silence, we hoped for the best
Each of his threats and his attacks another test

You’re raising hell to survive to defend
Your families and your home, it’s your roots it’s your land
Keep out the wolves, it’s a dangerous pack, shape your knives
To flee or fight will decide if you’re dead or alive (and that’s why)

10. What if
What if we save the world
What if we take our last chance
What if we save the world
What if we save our ass and then dance

What if we save the world
What if we take our last chance
What if we save the world
What if we save our ass and then dance

When this party ends, I’m sure we’re tanned
And hold a cold drink in our hands

Yeah, all we need to do is switch off our TV
Cause as you know it can’t be true what we don’t see
It’s all we need and all it takes is close our eyes
This is when all known truths and wisdom become lies

The roof is on fire and the damn basement too
The roo the roof is on fire

The roof is on fire and the damn basement too
The roo the roof is on fire. Fire!

What if we save the world
What if we take our last chance
What if we save the world
What if we save our ass and then dance

What if we save the world
What if we take our last chance
What if we save the world
What if we save our ass and then dance

When this party ends, I’m sure we’re tanned
And hold a cold drink in our hands

Yeah, all we need to do is switch off our TV
Cause as you know it can’t be true what we don’t see
It’s all we need and all it takes is close our eyes
This is when all known truths and wisdom become lies

Not just the motherfuckers burn burn
Not just the motherfuckers burn burn

What if we save the world
What if we take our last chance
What if we save the world
What if we save our ass and then dance

11. Your Abyss
Friends for years and friends for good
That’s how it’s always been, and that’s how it should
Just a pale shadow of your past, no
Sparkle left in your eyes, your heart
Something ruins you deep inside
Something has gone wrong what you just can’t get right

Addiction burns you deep inside
All of us can see your constant fight

I urge to be there for you but I just don’t know how
Known you forever, it’s heartbreaking to see you now

I can see you going
I can see you going down
I can see you going
Just upright now you’re on your knees

I can see you going
I can see you going down
I can see you going
Just upright now you’re on your knees

It hurts so much to see you ruin yourself
To see you don’t care about being alive
It hurts so much to see you lose yourself
To see you don’t care about staying alive
Can’t go on watching you destroy yourself
You can’t ignore that you are killin‘ yourself

I can see you going
I can see you going down
I can see you going
Just upright now you’re on your knees

I can see you going
I can see you going down
I can see you going
Just upright now you’re on your knees

Remember what was, could be good again
Remember what’s worth the pain
