Love So Clear

GASLIGHT

Don’t you gaslight me
what I say is real not make believe
Ain’t sure what you heard me say
But I’m gonna make it clear today

Don’t you gaslight me
It’s an assault on my sanity
I say what I say and I mean what I mean
So don’t you gaslight me

There’s a man on a pedestal with swagger & hustle
Dressed up in blue suits and power ties
Tells me down is up and up is down
forgets my moral compass never lies

So I ain’t buying what he’s selling
Freedom’s not on sale today 
We’re all full up on crazy
Too high a cost for us to pay

Don’t you gaslight me
what I say is real not make believe
got no time for disinformation
Stakes are higher than you perceive

Every ounce of truth
is a precious commodity 
wasted on people who live in a lie
not gonna mine the depths 
of my interpretations 
To figure out what kind of crazy
Is in your mind

Don’t you gaslight me
what i say is real not make believe
got no time for lies and obfuscations
the stakes are higher than you perceive

I’m going to a place where people say what they mean
where blue is blue and green is green
where people do what they say they’ll do
and kindness is not perceived as weak

Don’t you gaslight me
what I say is real not make believe
Ain’t sure what you heard me say 
But I’m gonna make it clear today
Don’t you gaslight me
What I say is real not make believe 
You got me beggin please
Don’t you gaslight me

Lyrics

First you kill the truth
Then you kill the people
That’s only way it works
You gotta do it in that order
So nobody knows what you’re up to.

Buried her daughter in the frozen ground
Legs sticking out of the burial mound
Mom had to leave her half exposed
Black and white stockings all we found
Like a ballerina in a death pose

First you kill the truth
Then you kill the people
That’s only way it works
You gotta do it in that order
So nobody knows what you’re up to

The world’s got a different attitude
Shit hasn’t been this crazy since 1942
Evolution back a step or two
You thought that this was something new
But the fuckers killed my grandparents too

First you kill the truth
Then you kill the people
That’s only way it works
You gotta do it in that order
So nobody knows what you’re up to.

Walked out of the house to see the soldiers pull into town
They didn’t think twice before they opened fire and shot her down
The callous and the cruel
Like boy with a gun in a Texas High School

Strange Place
Produced by Alan D Boyd

A couple find themselves in a Strange Place wondering whether to go on or give it up now. 

Lyrics

refrain
This is a strange place

V1
Now i got your attention
There’s things I need to know
I don’t recognise you
And I don’t know where I am

V2
And now that I mention it
There’s a conversation that needs to happen
But you can’t look me in the eyes
Maybe it’s time to walk away

refrain
This is a strange place

V3
I know there’s something going on
Stop treating me like i’m crazy
How did I let you get such a hold on me
Baby look at me, why can’t you look at me

refrain
This is a strange place

Strange Place

A cover of the Woody Guthrie classic American folk song This Land is Your Land. Created with advertising and sync in mind.
