Bones (Demo) by The Forgotten Lights published on 2019-09-22T21:59:48Z We have been inspired by the student-led protest movement for climate action, and this song has been bouncing around in our rehearsal space for a little while... After attending the protest this past Friday (20 Sep 2019) I spent a bit of time over the weekend pulling this rendition together. Still not 100% polished, but in the spirit of the occasion I wanted to post it sooner rather than later. Big thanks to Deb and Bo for making these sessions so creative and productive (we have another 3 or 4 songs on the way). And to Dominik Malzacher for the extra guitars (tracked across the globe in the UK). LYRICS: Keeping up With the latest in the long division Rising up This tide across the world now Speaking truths So long lost to your derision Holding on To the ways of the world that have been Feeding on your soul Traded for nothing Greasing the wheels Listen up No room left for indecision Taking up Arms across the world now Ripping out The deep dug roots of your obsession 'Coz we don't have A future if we don't step away Too late for your soul No good for nothing Grist for the mill We stand alone Feeling our voices rise up Deep in our bones We'll take what's left in 1,2,3,4 Make it our own 'Coz we don't want what you've got We take that road We'll end up with a world in decay Will we find What we need to look the other way To turn this all around To see a way beyond the one we know You stand alone Feeling our voices rise up Shaking your bones We'll shake your mind in 1,2,3,4 We're not alone And we don't want what you've got You take that road We'll take you down in 1,2,3,4 Genre Alternative Rock
