Manifesto of Harm Joy
Harm Joy is who we are, what we feel, and what we create. The embodiment of Schadenfreude, we are what gives you that sweet but slightly guilty pleasure you experience when hearing of another's misfortune, particularly that of a friend. We believe there is no pain without pleasure, even if not felt by the same individual. We believe there is no discipline without some form of bondage, either physical, mental, or emotional. All three are best.
We resurrect the nostalgic, not to make you feel good but to feel what nostalgia really means: in Greek, the pain from an old wound. It has been said that nostalgia is the art of forgetting how bad things really used to be. We of Harm Joy are here to remind you.
• A time of intense promise for the future in the shadow of intense fear of doomsday
• A time of intense prosperity amidst the rubble of intense destruction
• A time of intense humanity as a disguise for intense objectification
• A time of intense liberation while bound into intense role enforcement
• A time of intense values masking even more intense perversions
Harm Joy is symbiosis. Harm Joy is balance. Harm Joy delivers discomfort in the midst of pleasure. Harm Joy induces pain to produce relief. Harm Joy forces thoughts in order to free your mind. Listen.
Inside Out
Harmjoy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
These are the scars that made me.
These are the shapes I drew.
These are the shapes that drew me.
I see the way you stare at me
And call me a damned freak.
A bizarre-sight to see
As if that's a bad thing.
I don't hide anything from you.
My insides are out in the open
This is the life I have chosen
Don't judge me.
You've got scars too.
Right there: inside of you!
Don't judge me.
You're damaged too.
Right there: inside of you!
Don't judge me.
You're rotting too.
Right there: inside of you!
I see you scowling at me
'Cause I'm wearing no colors.
Black is the way that we see
Who are our brothers.
We show our pain on the surface.
Our crisis is our catharsis
There's good and evil inside us.
Our shared wounds
Serve to unite us!

The singer talks about the unity they feel with individuals who might have a history or pain similar to theirs. In embracing and owning their inner struggles, they show their solidarity with others who might be struggling silently.
