Loneliness is a blues, comes for you at 2 am Loneliness is a blues, comes for you at 2 am You know when you’re lonely, up at this time without a friend Loneliness is a blues, knows no bounds Loneliness is a blues, knows no bounds Comes for you in the middle of the night, doesn’t even make a sound Loneliness is a blues, coming for me all my life Loneliness is a blues, coming for me all my life Sometimes all I can do is play my guitar to ease my troubled mind Loneliness is a blues, none of us are immune Loneliness is a blues, none of us are immune Like a virus on the soul, watch out it doesn’t come for you

Outside at the sunshine café I watched the people Q to shop Got their tickets, lists and their mobiles That ain’t me, I just wanna stop You can watch the world go by While you sit and eat a pie And when you look up to the sky You’ll see that old sun beat down To the burning ground of their lives Outside at the sunshine café They cook your eggs any way you like Sunny side up, or an omelette With a salad on the side You can watch the world go by While you sit and eat a pie And when you look up to the sky You’ll see that old sun beat down To the burning ground of their lives Outside at the sunshine café I watched the middle-class people die Spending money by looking through windows Picking up a little personal high You can watch the world go by While you sit and eat a pie And when you look up to the sky You’ll see that old sun beat down To the burning ground of their lives

Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way and we… Don’t seem to be able to make a change Now there’s a way with the world (Now there’s a way with the world) Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way and… We’ve got less freedom we have been betrayed Now there’s a way with the world (Now there’s a way with the world) Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way and we must… Not disobey Now there’s a way with the world (Now there’s a way with the world) Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way and it… Fills me full of rage Now there’s a way with the world (Now there’s a way with the world) Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way with the world Now there’s a way and we must… Fight those racists every day Now there’s a way with the world (Now there’s a way with the world)

Make sure you get those gas lights turned up bright Make sure you get all the people back to work it makes them feel alright Make sure they’ve got something in which they can believe Make sure they repeat the mantra “work sets you free” Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end Make sure you send all the children back to school Make sure you get the teachers to tell them everything’s cool Make sure everybody works hard for those special grades Make sure you never let slip the system’s always been tailor-made Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end Make sure you’ve got the people exactly where you want Make sure they pay back into the system to keep it strong So that your offspring hold all the cards in this poker game And the likes of us never get to stake our claim Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end So one day in the future everybody in this room is going to die And the best thing you can do for yourself right now is make sure your life is not a lie One thing we have in built as humans is a feeling of discontent Just be aware that sometimes that feeling is put there by your government Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end Making it alright in the end

I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison, tonight. I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison, again. It’s been with me many a year, right by my side Always dependable and warm It’s time to move on and get back my life But then, you never know… I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison, tonight. I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison, again. What will it be like without you there? Will I cope by myself? Will each night get the better of me? Will those small hours seem like Hell? I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison, tonight. I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison I said goodbye to my poison, again.

I watch the TV every day Got to be careful, avoid the hate They’ve got a channel just for me Selling me everything that I need Looking out through my window Looking out through my window pane I am a social media guy Sometimes it makes me feel quite high To have you hanging upon my word Even when my thoughts are absurd Looking out through my window Looking out through my window pane I get to look out across the street To all the people that I can’t meet Watching the way they move around Socially distant, minimal sound Looking out through my window Looking out through my window pain.

Upright thinkers Downright stinkers Laying down the rules That only apply to me, and you Champagne drinkers Thieves and tinkers Doing what they want Without a thought for me, or you All the things you say, every word’s untrue Though we seem far away, your payback’s overdue Had us all wearing blinkers Back when we were free thinkers And if we don’t watch out You’ll have us all in chains, like slaves You’re hyperlink slinkers And intranet kinkers You’re emptying our minds While digging our graves All the things you say, every word’s untrue Though we seem far away, your payback’s overdue All the things you say, every word’s untrue Though we seem far away, your payback’s overdue Payback is overdue Payback is overdue Payback is overdue Payback is overdue

When the world awakes Realises last night’s mistake How will it carry on? Big business, pollution and war.

In Our Heart 05:59
Here we are now The end of our time Sentence is lifted Back to life When you get back Keep all you learned Look out for each other Be concerned With all that is wrong And all who have gone And all that could ever be If you want And we can look towards the stars And we can make a brand-new start And we can heal all of our scars And we can hold this in our heart
