We used to say money won’t buy happiness
Still we try to make it so that’s why we’re in this mess
Desperate of missing out we give our very future away
Allow ourselves to be contained
Afraid to fight, complain or disobey

Everything we own is someone’s pain and suffering
Staring at our phones slaves to apps that keep us running running
Trapped inside our heads a box set mind destroying binge
Living lives of dire dread
Of being pushed out onto the social fringe

And Time goes by
We cease to try
Blind obedience to selfish personal gain
Is no solution that this planet can sustain
And time goes by
And time goes by

Time Goes By

A Planet slowly dying
Scavenged by desperate prey
They feed on pain and misery
Cause suffering everyday

The third world ruled by slash and burn
Its children’s cries are never heard
Cos tears won’t break these hearts of stone

Control and subjugation
Are tools that feed this  greed
They’ll go to any measure
To take just what they need

And in the first world we bow down
To those who offer us the crown
Of joy false hope and security 
They keep us living on our knees
Prisoners to these hearts of stone

It’s time to break those hearts of stone

Hearts of Stone

Freedom Terror why do these two go together
In your great and powerful nation?
War and finance 
it’s gonna go the distance. 
Death and profit for each generation. 

 Yet I don’t see the pain in your face 
 I don’t hear the strain in your voice
I don’t see a riot on your street
What’s wrong with your country?

Starving nations emaciated Children
 Happy you are strong and prosperous
Half the world will die while you stand Sorrowful in Nike
There’s a reason why you live so well

Something's Wrong

Pain in your head Pain in your feet
Pain in the faces out on the street

Some are homeless some are not 
All miserable with what they’ve got
No comfort dreams into the dust 
Living on hand outs and in debt 
Poverty grips tight round the neck
Tapped inside and never ending

Faith in no one they know they’ve got you beat
Sticking top what you feel you know
Like cement around your feet 

Accepting lies as comfort food believing fake news as the truth
Controlled and sedated empty lives 
Freedoms stripped as years go buy
No resistance don’t even try
 A future full of bland acceptance
And still they take you through the door
 To constant carnage and to war
A future world of planet Earth reduce to ashes

Sleepwalking

200 years of capitalist reign
Industrial subservience financial pain
Still we’re bound by these insane laws
The needs of the few control resources for all
More conflict, hatred and fear
New destructive leaders around this year
So bow your head and genuflect once more
To those who deal in poverty, famine and ward

Life in the gutter heading down the drain

We should be screaming out demanding fair play
But year after year we just throw it away
A beautiful planer abundant and blue#
Controlled by a poisonous destructive few
We feed on scraps at their table of greed
Let them cut our throats and just watch us bleed
The future balanced on a knife edge of waste
Endless pain and suffering in every race

We won’t be free till we get up and try
To end this life of tyranny and expose the lie
That we should be content with our vacuous dreams
While millions live their lives in a silent screen

Life in the Gutter

You’ve got yourselves into a mess
And placed your country in the deepest distress
You thought you had the right idea
Now you’ve succumbed to what you most fear

Your kids will drown in the tears you shed
Cos  the ways of madness lie ahead

Now is the time you should be most afraid
Cos you will suffer for the error you have made
The powers you’ve give to these maniacs
Have given them the courage to attack

The pain and suffering that they said was dead
Replaced with madness straight ahead
The fascist banners flying overhead

So much for giving you freedom to choose
You’re never gonna live it down
You suck up all the savage right wing media views
That told you how need to vote for a clown

The ways of madness lie ahead

The Ways Of Madness

Which damn side of the road
Are you on buddy?
Which damn side of the road
Are you from friend?
You can’t sell your promises 
Cos you have none to make
You’re selling out the working class
To build a corporate business stake

Which damn side of the map
Are you from buddy?
Which damn side of the map
Are you on friend?
You’re turning red to blue 
With every policy in sight
Social institutions 
That is paving the way for the right

Which damn side of the hood
Are you from Buddy?
Which damn side of the hood 
Are you from friend?
Social depravation
Leads to violence in the streets
Gives you ammunition
For repressive measures that you seek

William Ward
