about

Performed live @ Joe's Pub on 12.17.19

lyrics

America the beautiful
Your streets are paved with blood
and your river run with tears that flow
To form a cleansing flood

When they gun down our communities
All we get are thoughts and prayers
Politicians say what they want to say
But still act like they don't care

If you find the eye of the storm
Hold on, hold on
Don't you know it's always darkest before dawn
So shine on shine on

And we shake our heads at the news reports
and say "this isn't who we are"
Watching families get torn apart
But I've seen this hate before

And those who claim to love the holy one
Go marching into war
They have fallen for that silver tongue
Cut me down to build a wall

If you find the eye of the storm
Hold on, hold on
Don't you know it's always darkest before dawn
So shine on shine on
