A Light Flicks On Lyrics by Jude Joseph

2024

A light flicks on on somebody's front porch
Illuminates a starless night so suffocating
In its vacant disregard for anything transpiring
Underneath its empty sky
We keep in time, the war drum counts our steps
As we proceed in single file towards our decimation
While over ashen plains, the tourists on their holidays
Come home again, their souvenirs clutched tight

The beat plays on for anyone in earshot
And we find that once again our memories have fragmented
The sheen of our old lives, it faded fast and oxidised
Corroded into something I don’t even recognise

Sabotaged right from the get-go
Treading ground on stolen land we barely even know
Alienated from our very nature
In every sense we are invaders

So let it all come down upon us
Every brick and every stone
Every construct that enforces
The concept that we are all alone
Let it wash away like ink drawn on our skin
Like mud, like sin
Like sculptures in the sand
Let it all come down so we can start again

We'll get it right this time, I swear to God
If we die in the process why should we even care
Because this isn't living, it's merely existing
Locked in a fucked metaphysical prison
Kept at arm's length from what we're truly capable of
So let it all come down right now
Please let it all come down right now
