Salvation

from Nightingale by Joe Bailey

/

lyrics

Here we are in a dance for the rich and the famous,
No rhythm, no soul and two left feet.
And it seems that stupidity is contagious,
As we dance to the rumbling of defeat.

And our screams only seem to be heard as a whisper,
Veering side to side and left to right.
It's alright if you die all alone in the corner,
They can whistle and sleep throughout the night.

Can't we wish for a little bit of unity?
Can we ask for a little bit of dignity?
Could we wish for mercy and serenity?
How I long for salvation and its recipe.

How can we be seen and how can we heard?
When corruption is hanging from every word.
There's passion and hunger and an aching desire,
But a desperate flame and we burn in the fire.
And the choice is teasing us,
But my voice is meaningless?
