Don’t Let the World Get You Down
Don’t let the world get you down
Don’t let the world get you down
Even when it’s crashing
All around
Don’t let the world get you down
Times like these
They come and go
Times like these
Just seem slow
This too shall pass
That’s what they say
But I got a feeling
It’s not today
Its not today
Don’t let the world get you down
Don’t let the world get you down
Even when it’s crashing
All around
Don’t let the world get you down
It’s getting weird
And it’s almost surreal
You wake up again
And you have to deal
Sometimes the darkness
Outshines the light
But I know that flame
Is worth the fight
We’ll have to fight
Don’t let the world get you down
Don’t let the world get you down
Even when it’s crashing
All around
Don’t let the world get you down
And when it’s over
And it all goes back again
Can we remember
How we got through
Looking Out This Window
Looking out this window
I’m looking out at the road
And I’m wondering where we’re going
With this heavy load
Im looking out this window
Im looking out at the world
We’ve come so far so fast
But do we know where to go
Driving through the night
Without a guiding light
Oh Lord won’t you tell me where to go
I’ve got everything I need
But time to plant the seed
And I worry now that some
Will be left behind
Im looking out this window
Staring down this road
And I wonder where we’re going
With this heavy load
I’m lookin gout this window
Staring out at the world
Running at the speed of light
With nowhere to go
I’m hoping we’re alright
I think I see sunlight
The darkness seems to
Fade out from behind
We’ve got everything we need
We tried to plant the seed
I know now that no ones
Left behind
Don’t Touch Me
Stand back, stand strong
Don’t wait too long
Your words not mine
Your life my line
Too close to call
Too steep to fall
We can go round and round all night long
Is there anything you’d like to say
Don’t touch me
Don’t touch me
Right now it’s real
I know I feel
This space, between
Its felt, its seen
Protect exist
Our norm subsists
We can try anything except the past
Is there anything you’d like to say
Don’t touch me
Don’t touch me
The streets at night
Look like a ghost town
The streets at night
Are losing faith
Sometimes we live
Sometimes we die
this world we give
This world we try
Stand back stand strong
Don’t make this wrong
We can go round and round all night long
Is there anything you’d like to say
Don’t touch me
Don’t touch me
Don’t touch me
Don’t touch me
Quarantine Blues
I’ve been stuck inside my mind
Stuck inside my hole
Ive been stuck inside my mind
Stuck inside this hole
This quarantine is hurting
I feel I’m losing my soul
I can’t touch my woman
I can’t sleep in my bed
I can’t touch my woman
I can’t sleep in my bed
If I don’t get no loving
I think I’m better off dead
I got these quarantine blues
Won’t you please set me free
I got these quarantine blues
Won’t you please set me free
If I don’t see the sun
I might just go crazy
Walking the Street
Your words they cut me
They cut me like a knife
It’s like you just don’t give a damn
About this life
I just don’t understand
Why you love this pain
You push me and you pull me
It’s driving me insane
I’m walking the street
I’ve been walking all night
Just trying to find a reason
To give up this fight
Your space and your dignity
That’s what your looking for
But did it ever occur to you
There’s something more
I’ve gotta a funny feeling
You’re not telling me the truth
Theres more to this story
Than you’re letting loose
I’m walking the street
I’ve been walking all night
Just trying to find a reason
To give up this fight
I think I must be crazy
Cause we’ve been here before
You break my heart
And I come back for more
I’m walking the street
I’ve been walking all night
Just trying to find a reason
To give up this fight

Dark Raven looking down on me Dark Raven what do you see
A world of mass confusion
Rumours running like wind
You spread your wings
And the night begins
Dark Raven you’re a mystery
The reason for your flight
Is not clear to see
Are you a judgement
Or will you let us be
Dark Raven please set us free
Dark Raven, looking down on me Dark Raven, tell me what you see You disturb my sleep and sanity Dark Raven please set me free
Dark Raven don’t frighten me
He’s been here before
History’s clear to see
Lets all just stick together
Not be broken shards of glass
Given time this too will pass
Dark Raven, looking down on me Dark Raven, tell me what you see Disturb my sleep and sanity
Dark Raven please set me free
Dark Raven there will come a day Open your wings, fly away
You may try to scare us
But we are stronger than you think Our spirt never crumbled
When you took us to the brink
Dark Raven get on your way
Dark Raven we won’t let you stay (Fade etc)
Call of the Wild
Animal instinct
Starts kicking in
It don’t matter
If you can’t take it
with you in the end
People lining up
Got to get their fill
Nothing left
For the weak and the ill
It’s the call of the wild
A fragile society
That’s barely getting by
And when amazon stops
You’re all screaming why Consumption
Is our priority
And if you get in the way
There’s gonna be a stampede
It’s the call of the wild
Blame it on the media
Blame it on the man
Blame it on the leaders
Of this broken land
But when you point that finger
And that’s all you do
There’s four more
Pointing back at you
It’s the call of the wild
After the Storm

Well we got on a plane
And we headed your way
Yeah, we got on a plane
Just to entertain
And the people embraced us
With love and great joy
But fate and its agent
Had been deployed
We played to packed houses
Filled them with song
But the shadows were falling
Tried to be strong
The doors were all closing
Our people sent home
Four lonely musicians
On a long empty road
The seats may be empty
And the doors may be closed
This stormed will be ended When...nobody knows
But we’ll never stop singing
Sharing our song
We may all be parted
But it won’t be for long
Time for our loved ones
Time to get home
Lookout for each other
Leave no-one alone
Learning this lesson
That the world must unite
Be stronger together
And we’ll win this fight
The seats may be empty
And the doors may be closed
This storm will be ended When...nobody knows
But we’ll never stop singing
Sharing our song
We may all be parted
But it won’t be for long
What It Used To Be
I’ve heard about the good ole days
From my father and the men
Who drank down at the local bar
They’d talk about the times before
The war when they were young
And they’d talk about the times
when they came home
History repeats itself
In one way or another
You never live a life
So free
I think we’re living through
That time that draws the line
Of what’s to come
Of what it used to be
My mother told me just how poor
Her family was, just a dirt floor
had made the country bleed
She was proud and so content
With 5 rooms in our apartment
With love and food
That’s all we’d ever need
History repeats itself
In one way or another
You never live a life
So free
I think we’re living through
That time that draws the line
Of what’s to come
Of what it used to be
So here we are with our new tale
Living through a sudden fail
In technocolor online ecstasy
Those that came before us
They know how this ends
Our world before and after for all to see
