about

I wrote this song at a time when banker’s bonuses and so called disaffected youths were making the headlines. As the divide between the classes expands, with no real efforts to bridge the gap, it's no wonder people begin to resort to desperate measures. For some these are desperate times - Nicholas Davis

lyrics

To run away with every ounce of obligation, never held to be accountable,
For what you’ve done leaves our integrity in pieces and what’s worse is the slow repetition,
And as we fall we’ll find a new solution and we’ll call for total retribution for us all,
As the draft is re-written yeah we won’t keep ending up like this

‘Cos now we’ve got it all figured out and I’ll tell you we’re doing just fine
Substance in the depths of conversation we remember the days of our lives

We have our ways, to cope with lost prosperity, direction and insecurity,
And I can’t think straight, I can’t let my emotions about recent news that’s been made clear to me,

Now we know that we are over powering with our call, as we raise the bar much higher than before and as we step this time then we stop, running around like this
