about

The opening radio clips here come via my bathroom radio while Joe Biden was announcing the current tally of the dead from the Coronavirus pandemic. The background church bells and bird sounds are from outside the normally busy Warsaw University in Poland a few weeks after quarantine began.

The final clip is of Pip telling me that the album is done by knocking over some stuff on the table while I was finishing up a take.

lyrics

(chord changes in parenthesis)

The (G) clock has notched another turn . The (C) leaves are dead and (G) gone.
The (G) news is flashing numbers of the (D) people who’ve passed on. (D7)
In every (G) city ‘round the (G7) world, pent up (C) shame and pain (Cm) unfurl;
Watch it (G) spreading, watch it (D) vanish, watch it (G) grow. (D)

Let the (G) fireworks in number match the (C) death count.
Let the (G) massiveness of trauma be shot (D) high. (D7) When every
(G) dog and cat has (G7) hidden, let our (C) crimes all be (Cm) forgiven.
(G) Watch them panic, watch them (D) whimper, watch them (G) go. (G7)

(C) When the moon begins to (D) fall into the (G) river.
Let the (C) water carry (D) everything (C) away.
When the (C) night consumes the (D) sky and the (G) cacophony begins to (Em) die,
Let the (C) fireworks fly. Watch ‘em (D) rise into the (D7) sky.

There is (G) hope, there is (D) hope, there is (C) hope in (G) potential.
In (G) potential there is danger, there is (D) hope. (D7)
When the (G) last light in the (G7) sky (C) begins to dim and (Cm) die,
In (G) potential, there is (D) danger, there is (G) hope.
