Pale Ontology

Worker's Lament

Dirty acoustic, finger-picking blues. Some dark themes on oppression with a hint of hope at the end. Lyrics below - get in touch if you are interested in licensing any lyrics …

I hold it in
Your holding out
I’m holding up
But I don’t know how

You hold me under
I hold my breath 
I’m holding on
By a single thread

You hold me down
hold me down
You hold, hold, hold me down

No holding back
No holds barred
You look down on me
With your head held high

I hold my tongue
And swallow my pride
You hold all the cards
And you still want mine

Don’t hold me down
Don’t hold me down
Don’t hold, hold, hold me down

Block up the windows
Lock up the doors
Black out the lights
Block out all the noise

Lock down the borders
Lock out the press
Lock up the children
That wash up on our shores

You won’t hold me 
You won’t hold me 
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down
You won’t hold me down

Hold me down

My Last Day

Streetside Philosophy's second album Cliffhanger is a deep dive into the core style of the band, and explores a gritty side of the indie / alternative genre.  All songs were recorded using only live analog instrumentation by songwriter John Spivey.  Cliffhanger was a culmination of 15 years of original writing and tells a cryptic story layered with hidden meanings.
