An original song and lyrics from my most recent band, Graham Smith and the Drone Smasherz. Enjoy!
LYRICS:
It's all over now
No more turnin' 'round
Flying through the sound
Blue wings thrum and pound
Darkened temples found
Risin' higher from the ground
And I can see the motorways
And mountains as they stretch for days
It's taken so long to be
this hopeless and completely free
Now I see you, do you see me?
Somebody sold the clouds for a price
Somebody told the prince to "be nice"
If I could claw my way through the floor
Through all these people who always want more
maybe I'd find you there
Sneakers push and pound
Against the back streets of the town
I can feel it now
I can feel it now
This fight or flight is all I feel
No lions but it still feels real
It's black it's white, it's right it's wrong
But there's no time to sing this song
If I sing then would you sing along?
Somebody sold the clouds for a price
Somebody told the prince to "be nice"
They're sellin' paper boats in the flood
They got us bleedin' out royal blood
for a peasant's wage
Why is it takin' so long baby?
Somebody sold the clouds for a price
Somebody told the prince to "be nice"
They're sellin' paper planes in the storm
They're sellin' cellophane to keep warm
Somebody sold the clouds for a price
Somebody told the prince to "be nice"
If I could claw my way through the floor
Through all these people who always want more
maybe I'd find you there
Why is it takin' so long baby?
