Solstice

And all these grateful manners
On their way ahead
We’ll pay for saving til it’s all dead
I cannot reach for something
That I can’t feel
I cannot reach for nothing til body’s still
Well some absent father
And his turncoat son
We’ll get together when it’s all done
So put your hands to heaven
Start shouting loud
We’ll fall together and hit the ground
I cannot pray for rain if it won’t fall
I cannot ask forgiveness if I don’t want it all
And so I clench my hands and let it fall
As my home crumbles from the weight of it all
I said holy rollers and Jesus Christ

Place I Stay

Descend, Holy Father
Cut them down like flowers
Be sure to make them suffer
Not again, not again, my friend
Place I stay, place I hate
I will try and get away
Place I stay, place I hate
I will try and get away
Try and get away
Get away, get away
And all you goddamn cowards
Watch as they cower
Well I’m weak but will get stronger
Not again, not again, my friend
Place I stay, place I hate
I will try and get away
Place I stay, place I hate
I will try and get away
Try and get away
Get away, get away
And you destroy all my peaceful offers
You strike fear, fight with one another
You rejoice like we do not matter
You deserve we’re all coming after
A noose, your big white collar
Let loose your sons and daughters
And soon you’ll burn like embers
Not again, not again, my friend
Place I stay, place I hate
I will try and get away
Place I stay, place I hate
I will try and get away
Try and get away
Get away, get away

Are you listening?
You listening?
You listening?
All they have is want, I will give you need
I feel tired now boy, I’m awful weak
And I have not been there
Will I get to?
Will I ever go?
My head is aching
Body’s breaking
From this
Are you listening?
You listening?
You listening?
Awful happenings, every couple weeks
Kids will march on, boys, they do not speak
And I have not been there
Will I get to?
Will I ever go?
And I’m such a joker
Yeah, really?
You’d never know
Never know, never know
Never know, never know
Are you listening?
You listening?
You listening?
All these gaslights, driving me insane
Trudging forward lord, I curse your name

My heart breaks as I tune in to the everyday
And all these thoughts they will consume your everything
Yeah I’m so cold and got so stoned in another land
So break my back don’t cut my stride and another thing
Yeah I don’t know if they’re okay
As I begin each every day
Nothing’s changed and nothing will with continuance
And all these creeps who only dream of their dominance
Yeah I don’t know what you’ve been told about them other folks
So break my back don’t cut my stride and another thing
Yeah I don’t know if they’re okay
As I begin each every day
Who will break my heart?
Who will break my heart?
