SONG NOTES AND LYRICS:
Let the rain come down 
Take this river to the sea
Let the rain come down
Take this river to the sea
Way out here
Just the rain and the river and me

Let the rain come down 
The things this old river has seen 
Let the rain come down 
The things this old river has seen
Way out here
It’s just the rain and the river me

From the top of this hill 
How this river flows
Doing what a river does 
What a river knows 
Let the rain come down 
Take the river where the river goes 

Let the rain come down 
What will be will be 
Let the rain come down 
What will be will be 
Way out here
Just the rain and the river and me

The Rain and The River and Me

                                         When people can say no ! 
I am that Milgramm girl
Who refuses to give an electric shock,
Iam that Indian boy
Who burns trucks that come to kill the jungle
My name is Rosa
I'm going to jail because i want to sit on the  bus
I'm this  Chinese girl
Standing up in front of  the tanks 

Freedom is just an idea 
As long as we obey
Freedom may be more than  an idea 
Only if the people can say no.

I'm a soldier 
Who refuses to fight to kill children.
I'm that actress who quits acting to silence rapists
I am that young girl that a cop disfigured because she takes care of your precious water
My name is Giordano they burn me because of infinity. 

Freedom is just an idea 
As long as we obey
Freedom may be more than  an idea 
Only if the people can say no.

Freedom for people when people can say no ( ad lib)

When people can say no !

at the disco
goin’ all the way
with a speedball
on an empty day

i wonder if i stopped my cryin’
i wonder if i stopped now

crooked halo
all you’ve got today
your dependents
better back away

i wonder if i stopped my cryin’
i wonder who i’d be now

in the moonlight
goin’ all the way
to the river
gonna watch for day

i wonder if i stop my crying’
i wonder what i’d see now

Lyrics:
Static storms in the sky of the screen,
 A whisper turns into a war machine. 
"Truth" crawls out with a plastic grin, 
While the anchor smiles as the lies begin.

Shadows wear suits and read from a scroll, 
Facts get buried in a memory hole.
 Inverted logic, a mirrored parade,
 They're selling the light, but it's wrapped in shade.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

Cameras blink like synthetic eyes, 
Spinning webs from alibis. 
A lie repeated becomes your creed, 
Truth’s just a slogan no one reads.
Up is down, and fear is sold, 
Wrapped in flags and tales of old. 
The people chant, the puppets play, 
While emperors tweet the end of days.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

<Solo>

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.

Cracks appear in the painted sky,
 A question burns: who, what, when, which, why?
 The spell might break with a single thought, 
A revolution the mind forgot.
So break the feed, unplug the maze, 
Burn the script, and clear the haze. 
Wake the world with a single spark.
 Truth begins where they end the dark.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Now the tower shakes, and the sirens cry
But we see the truth behind the lie.

What The Fox America

[Tartan skies the stars they blink 
Echoes rise the pints they clink
 Feet stomp hard on wooden floor
 Feel the earth shake hear the roar  
 Bagpipes wail the crowd ignites 
Accordion sparks the fiery nights 
Drums pound deep like thunder's call In this chaos we give it all 
Setting the stage alight tonight Hearts on fire spirits take flight 
The crowd screams and dances wild In the music's arms we're beguiled  

Setting  the stage alight

A man dreams of soaring free like an eagle

Soaring Free

A mix of gritty growling rock. Turn up the volume 

Scorned inferno

Living the Summer

New song from Glen and Dave.

Music and all instruments - Glen Granthem.

Lyrics and all vocals - David Cooper

You’re looking out for me
I’m looking out for you
Do we know what we should do

Down the tunnel
We both fall – Can we hear each other’s call
Can we hear, can we hear, can we hear each other’s call?

Chorus

Here we sit among the thorns
Surrounded by those that mourns
No one knows how the stories go
The tales of old, tales of yore

What is that I thought you said?
I thought I heard you in my head
Maybe I can’t hear at all 
Can we hear each other’s call?
Can we hear, can we hear, can we hear each other’s call?

Chorus

Down the tunnel
We both fall
Down the tunnel
We both fall
Down the tunnel
We both fall

Can we hear each other’s call
Can we hear, can we hear, can we hear each other’s call?

Chorus

Down the Tunnel (Cooper/Granthem Collaboration)

Comme ça

Fear Of Strangers

Still chic and sexy

holy shit

I Broke Myself Today 

I broke myself today
Just to feel something real
Focused on the ache
It’s the only thing I feel
Piercing through the skin
That same old, burning sting
Tried to let it go
But I recall everything

Look at who I am
Dear, you're my only friend
Everyone I’ve touched
Leaves me in the end

You could take it all
My kingdom made of dust
I will let you down
I'll betray your trust

I wear this heavy crown
Sit on a throne of lies
Thoughts too torn to fix
Hope too dead to try
Time has stained it all
Worn love into disguise
You’ve become someone new
While I still haunt this life

See what I became?
Sweetest friend of mine
All the ones I loved
Left me with the time

So take it, have it all
My fortress built from hurt
I will fail you still
I’ll drag you through the dirt
If I had a chance
Far beyond the gray
I’d hold onto myself
And find another way



I Broke Myself Today

Sun burn

A salted kiss
