Where To Throw The Stone

do not fear but be afraid don’t rebel but just behave
If it is not explained then how do you justify It
the king raises his hand saying that he understands
and that he doesn’t want to see more of his people dying
cities to dust people to sand remember what the king once said
but while saying he was too busy lying
a crown makes a king a king makes a throne
and a throne makes the target for where to throw the stone
the elected hands of the world can only hold a few so think about that for a while
and then decide if they hold you
the uncoloured man rips his naked chest wide open and starts tickling his heart to make sure It’s not broken
there is no point in pointing there are no need for needles no rules worth ruling no deeds worth doing
a crown makes a king a king makes a throne
and a throne makes the target for where to throw the stone
if you kind of hate my voice and if its making you depressed then please go home take a piss and get some rest
as the worn out young men can’t cope with the temptation they start burning down the town out of anger and frustration
making all the women and children cry they do not salute the ones who are about to die
a crown makes a king a king makes a throne
and a throne makes the target for where to throw the stone

Don’t hold back

All the wheels are turning
All the wheels are turning
All the wheels are turning
All the wheels are burning
They won’t stop

At all
Get a move on
Get a move on
Work those feet
Work those feet
Hear the sound of
Hear the sound of
Sleeping trees
Weeping trees
All the wheels are burning
All the wheels are burning
All the wheels are burning
All the wheels are yearning
They wont stop

All the wheels are yearning
All the wheels are yearning
All the wheels are yearning
All the wheels are turning
They don’t stop
They wont stop
At all

Alright Louise

alright Louise
drown the land and burn the sea
don’t spare a single life
if they beg just kill them twice
cover miles and miles
traverse with all your might
alright Louise
chain the dogs and lose the keys
blind their wicked eyes
cross the creek in search of life
capture misty roads
sweep the tainted soil
alright Louise
dry my blood pretty please

Chickenheartedness

driven by fury made out of madness
a mother's son born out of sadness
you won't let anyone near you
if they pick red then you'll just pick blue
don't ask for love cause love hates you
why go around when you can break right through
it should be clear what's wrong here
you call it strength I call it fear
I call it fear
I call it fear
you always get but forget to give
a father's son who forgot to live
a field filled with no more holes to dig
a sky filled with no more dreams to pick
don't hide from hate cause hate loves you
why turn around when you've got nothing to lose
it's so damn clear what's wrong here
you call it strength I call it fear
I call it fear
I call it fear
think about what your mom used to say
the lies you tell will catch up with you one day
but hey I guess you've got enough on your mind
don't worry about the stuff you left behind
no I'm not mad no I'm not broken
I'm just saying things, things left unspoken
it's so unclear what's wrong here
you call it strength I call it fear
I call it fear
I call it fear

mother you are worried
mother you are hurt
but trees are yielding
no they’re not
but seas are easing
no they’re not
but songs lost meaning
no they’ve not
why are you leaving
because I’ve had enough
some say (cry a river)
some say (shoot the moon)
some say let’s show this world what we can do
mother you are angry
mother you are scared
but homes keep shaking
no they’re not
but bones keep breaking
no they’re not
but love keeps failing
no It does not
then what are you saying
no I’ve said enough
some say (meet your maker)
some say (enjoy the view)
some say let’s show this world what we can do
