Always with me

As I walk down this road to a new day
Memories of you still linger within
And because I know I’ve the strength to win
So I hope to see you along the way
I carry all those happy times with me
Of the times when we laughed and when we argue
The times when we talked and when we felt blue
The times when you saw that which I could see
But now I know there is nothing left to fear
Because your friendship has given me hope
This cold world may be harsh but I can cope
Because the memories are always near

Until the day we meet again I’ll keep moving
And thanks to you, I’m no longer losing

You don't care about us

He wants to win the election you know
So he tells us all he can turn the tide
But what he’s doing is stealing the show
The truth is he’s taking us for a ride
We should all listen to him when he speaks
But this means our thoughts are deemed null and void
He’s been saying the same old stuff for weeks
He doesn’t care about the unemployed
He doesn’t care about whose arse he kisses
He doesn’t care about protests for peace
Despite what we say, it’s the point he misses
And he wonders why our rants never cease

He promises change if I support his cause
So what does he want – A round of applause?

Hell town

In a town, fifty miles from nowhere
On the fringes of civilisation
All law and justice have lost distinction
The only strength is in violence and fear
In this place you must fight to stay alive
Young, old, rich, poor, it makes no difference
If you don’t heed to this law and pay penance
You don’t have a hope in hell to survive
Day after day, everything is the same
Many bodies fall long before the night
There’s no voices for reason or what’s right
There’s only the sneers as you lie in pain

There is an excuse why the punches flow
The thing is: the excuse just doesn’t know
