lyrics

The way the wind is blowing is a wicked way, nowadays.
It fans the flames of a hateful burning fire.
The evidence is growing that we don’t want to see harmony.
We’ll just sit back and watch the flames burn higher.

Just don’t say, it’ll be okay. Then look away, today.

The way the river’s flowing now will carry us through the dusk
into a cold and a fearsome endless night.
My mind’s no longer knowing that the good prevails, evil fails
and the balance of the people want what’s right.

Just don’t say, everything’ll be okay. Then walk away, today.

The seeds that we’ve been sowing were supposed to be for liberty
but a poisoned rain has turned this land to dust.
The way that things are going it’s not hard to see history
rising up like a long forgotten curse.

Don’t tell me I worry needlessly. I’m trying to be free.
