From the recording The John McGrail Trio
Lyrics
I don’t understand
what is going on
the sky is turning black
he rain burns the ground
all across the land
we keep hearing a sound
we are under attack
our fear has us bound
they try to turn on us
all our fallen tears
the only thing we have to fear
are those instilling the fear
we can’t be blind or we are to blame
must try to find the truth in this game
yes it’s all different nothing is the same
must fight our diffidence or go down in flames
Chorus
we can see the landscape has been poisoned
we can see they’ll let nothing stand in their way
will we act or will we stand frozen
the possibility is there for a better day
darkness is coming vigilance is a must
their mouths keep running though they’ve lost our trust
we must take back the power that they lust
fight off their attacks return to what is just
Chorus
