Pizzeria  & Jaus

written by David Silcock,originally performed by "The Loft"

Brick Willoughby.Alt version 2.

We built this world on shiny lies
Concrete dreams and neon skies
Sold our truth for comfort’s touch
But we still bleed, and it’s too much

We're drowning in the things we own
Empty hearts, but polished thrones
We feed the beast and lose our way
While beauty fades and truth decays

Raise the spirit, lift it high
Above the gold, above the sky
There's a fire we forgot to feel
A voice inside that's deep and real
Turn the tide, reclaim the flame
No more chasing hollow fame
Peace begins where ego ends
In what we give, not what we spend

You can’t buy meaning, can’t buy soul
But they will sell you every hole
A perfect cage, a velvet chain
That numbs the heart and feeds the brain

But there's a call beneath the noise
A quiet, ancient, broken voice
It whispers love, it sings of grace
Of something no machine replaces

Raise the spirit, lift it high
Above the gold, above the sky
There's a fire we forgot to feel
A voice inside that's deep and real
Turn the tide, reclaim the flame
No more chasing hollow fame
Peace begins where ego ends
In what we give, not what we spend

Let the world fall down around
If it means we stand on higher ground
To see the good, the just, the true
That lives in me, that waits in you

Raise the spirit, break the mold
Let the heart be brave and bold
We were made for something more
Than stock and steel and silent wars
Turn the tide, reclaim the flame
Call the lost back by their name
Peace begins where ego ends
Where love begins… and never bends

“Raise the spirit… raise the light…”
