about

2nd single for our upcoming album "Dress For The Future"

lyrics

it was 3am, I was wide awake
shots rang out, in the dark
helicopters, late at night
slow search lights, in the yard

a reckoning has come

I saw a man, die on live t.v.
how can you, not feel changed?
apathy, for humanity
angry sea, begin to rise

a reckoning has come

the streets were full of tear gas
it was, worse than I imagined
the cops hid their faces
they put, tape over their badges
big ideas
it was all madness
a man was crying
he said, "tell me how this happened?"

I want to say something, I didn't say a thing
I don't know the way, it's been lost
you raise your hand, did you find your voice?
is there still a choice?

I don't feel at home

the streets were full of tear gas
it was, worse than I imagined
cops hid their faces
they put, tape over their badges
big ideas
it was all madness
a man was crying
he said, "tell me how this happens?"
