#344: "Clouds Forever"
Added 2025-05-17 04:21:43 +0000 UTCThis one has been kicking around in my head for the past few months, finally got around to finishing it tonight at the end of an appropriately cloudy day. Hope you all are hanging in. -r
Clouds Forever
(F#m) Blood on every doorstep.
Death on every door.
Buckle up, it’s coming like you’ve never seen before .
(Bm) Run if you’ve got money.
It’s here for the weak, the dumb, the (F#m) clever.
(C#) Help responding never,
(Bm) so bury your oppressor.
Clouds (F#m) forever.
Clouds forever.
Nail down the doors .
Turn off every light.
You’re lying to yourself
If you thought that you could fight .
Hate is in the air.
The outlook has soured with the weather.
The dropping of the pressure
Leaves only desperate measures.
Clouds forever.
Clouds forever.
Lovers unentangle. Ships become unmoored.
Peaceful nations gather arms and ready for the war.
Highways turn to rivers. Bridges bend and break.
If you thought you were asleep, well, now you are surely now awake, So:
Fabricate a bonfire. Feed the fire tall.
Organize a light before the darkness comes to call.
Lie beneath the moonlight. Close your eyes and link your hands together.
Expressing your displeasure won’t slow down the aggressor.
Clouds forever.
Clouds forever.
Night forever.
