lyrics

The lines, seem so blurred these days
Uncanny valley in so many ways
Our connection to the world .. and what's it worth?

One step forward and two steps back
A demagogue on a truth attack
Just keep your eye on the birds flying high, far above the Earth

You drink hard and you drink long
Until you pour your heart out into a song
But it don't make no difference to your situation

Collective endorsement of a liberal state
Snorting those likes at an alarming rate
Hushed tones, meaningful nods, celebrity obsession with the dead like they’re gods.

But tonight
He puts his pen down and sighs
For he knows the hour has come
And this time, he ain’t gonna run
Puffs up his chest and gets dressed
In the clothes he loves the best
Ragged shirt, jeans and coat
An old scarf tied around his throat

And this is him
His moment of recognition
She’s finally made the choice
To stand up and raise her voice
And to whichever end
She can no longer pretend
And as she turns off all the lights
Still not sure if she’s wrong or right
Thanks God that she’s no longer torn
Hearts nearly break from the warmth
As they Step into the night

Close your eyes see the blood run
We’ll face these floods before they come
We are the scientific monkeys and we’re running with the bomb
Call your friends, call your family, call anyone.
