"It's Not Going To Be Okay" lyrics
"It's Not Going To Be Okay"
I am all of your
Greatest nightmares come true
Everything wrong with the world
And everything wrong with you
I am the oil spill
The drone strike on the hospital
The ugly truth and the bitter pill
It's not gonna be okay
I am the tumour in your lung
I am the tooth that bites the tongue
I am the hip that needs replaced
And the heating bills you have missed
I am the hard right
And dog whistle politics
I am the deal in the backroom
And the grin on the billionaire's face
I am the envy
Of your peers' successes
I am your fears and insecurities
I am the reason you're stuck in a rut
I am your marriage dying
Cups and saucers flying
I am the legal fees, the documents
And the pen to sign 'em
I am the hush money
The "dark web" and the laundered money
I am your banks blood money
And the offshore accounts
I am your search history
Big data and the algorithm
I am the hidden hand
The company man and the empty
Heart within him
I am the distracted
Subdued consumerist masses
I am a mountain of cheap plastic
Crap made in a prison camp
I am the ocean rising
Mothers and their babies crying
I am the hole in the dingy
And the dark clouds brewing
On the horizon

I'm gonna buy three pretty little birds

Joan Shelley - "The Fading" A spring remembered
The taste of gin
An eyelet light upon our skin
Your form it lingers
I trace just where you've been
The songs we sang I'll sing again

And the less of it I need, the more I get
'Til I'm swept up by the shape of all the centuries
