about

The first recording from Falaena in newly-reinvigorated power trio format. Now featuring Ed Kennedy on drums, Miguel Martinho on guitar and Christopher Lipscombe on bass and vocals. This song was written and arranged some time between March 2020 and the Winter of 2021, with lyrics "inspired" by the events of the time. It has taken a while to perfect the arrangement and get the tune recorded, but it was worth the wait!

lyrics

Stop, show your papers,
Like Eastern Germany.
Follow every guideline,
You're already on one knee.

When your TV says,
You stay in and behave,
Watch all freedom fade,
It's what you gave away,
So they'd keep you safe.

Forgetting that evil,
Always has a good excuse,
They all take power to save you,
Then use it to abuse.

Well, a gilded cage,
You know is still a cage,
And your health fails and fades,
It's what you gave away,
So they'd keep you safe.

Take a daily test,
Your owners know what's best,
Lose your wealth. Reset.
Their change is what you get,
When you acquiesce.
