about

This is written from two perpectives; the first is from that of someone planning a revolution. The second is asks why choices have been made without consideration of the consequences for all those involved, particularly when there have been options, including that of walking away, to save everyone.

lyrics

In a village far from nowhere
In a room with little light
Free from noise, they’re no distractions
There is where I start my fight.

Catching thoughts out of the ether
Try to frame the written word
Concentration like no other
So many things that must be heard.

Run
You could have cut and run.
So many others fought your cause
Their names are hidden, written nowhere.

Making friends with unmet people
Try to find a common cause
Spread the news across the nation
Attempt to change this land of ours.

Wounds run deep they, always have done
Grudges, born for all of time
Weary with the same old, same old
Wanting a different story line.

Run
You could have cut and run.
So many others fought your cause
Their names are hidden, written nowhere.
Stand
You had to make a stand.
A choice that you weren’t forced to take
Your ego up against all reason.

Breathe, Breathe
There’s no tomorrow.
Breathe, Breathe
If you fail.
Breathe, Breathe
No second chances.
Breathe, Breathe
No fairy tale.
Breathe, Breathe
There’s no tomorrow.
Breathe, Breathe
If you fail.
Breathe, Breathe
No second chances.

Bittersweet the realisation
Nothing moves until its crushed
Baby steps that move us backwards
Untapped anger stays untouched.

Run
You could have cut and run.
So many others fought your cause
Their names are hidden, written nowhere.
Stand
You had to make a stand.
A choice that you weren’t forced to take
Your ego up against all reason.

Breathe, Breathe
There’s no tomorrow.
Breathe, Breathe
If you fail.
Breathe, Breathe
No second chances.
Breathe, Breathe
No fairy tale.
Breathe, Breathe
There’s no tomorrow.
Breathe, Breathe
If you fail.
Breathe, Breathe
No second chances.
Breathe, Breathe
No fairy tale.
