Catastrophic Storms

from Love and Unfortunately Fascism by Tyler Shipley

/

lyrics

watching wind blow the leaves all about makes me happy or sad, depending on what else is going down. one day life is a journey and we're all floating around. another, there's forces that pick us up and throw us to the ground. but i'll hold you if a storm is coming through cos in 2018 catastrophic storms is what we do. and i know this to be true: in spite of everything we're doing wrong, i still believe in all of you. what happened to me? i used to be cynical and sad, disillusion-clad.

i'm aware that i'm regressing as a writer but there's bigger things at stake then making sure each line isn't earnest or trite or that i've got an original thing to say. i'll give you thirteen tracks of 'hold each other close' if it helps us live another day. what happened to me? i used to be cynical and sad, disillusion-clad. what happened to me? the times have made me twee. the winds are picking up, the water's getting rough, the earth is getting hot. if you're a maoist or a trot, time's not on our side, a front it must unite.
