A song from our album 'Scars in Soft Places', written for the dogs condemned by breed specific legislation and for all living beings persecuted because of who they are or for the way they look.

'I Will Be Saved'

You’re gonna tear down these walls

And you’re gonna let me out

Cos I’ve done nothing wrong

And you can’t condemn hope

You’re gonna take back your words

And you’re gonna give up the war

Cos I ain’t gonna die

While you lie through the law


You’re gonna give back my soul

And you’re gonna pay with the blame

This damn wicked mess

Is yours and your shame


And you will know that I lived

Every day in this pain

Far from their arms

When you banished my name

You told the world I was dead

And you made them believe

Now you must give me back

All the love that I need


You owe the heart and the bone

And the joy and the life

You took that from me

Then you turned out the light

And you created your demon

And you danced on my grave

And now we are even

I will be saved

And you will know that I lived

Every day in this pain

Far from their arms

When you banished my name

You told the world I was dead

And you made them believe

Now you must give me back

All the love that I need

You owe the heart and the bone

And the joy and the life

You took that from me

And you turned out the light

And you created your demon

And you danced on my grave

Now we are even

I will be saved

I will be saved…
 


A new song about the sadness of loss and grief inspired by a conversation with a good friend of mine who told me about an elderly lady in her eighties who had lost all her family and friends over the years.

'Closed for Bereavement'

First to go was my Daddy
Then my aunt Julie and dear Mama oh I miss her love
My good friend Rosie, her death tore right through me
All passed from this earth now to the heavens above

My darlings so dear well I can't live without you
Can't see you or hold you, can't find you no more
Keep forgetting you're gone now, now and forever
Expecting your footsteps to walk through that door

Well time ain't been kind to my precious loved ones
One by one to the Angels my treasure's have gone
And each left a story of hard luck behind them
Remembered forever for they all belonged

So pull down the shutters and lower the flags
I'm AWOL I'm a little lost for the family I had
Anyone wants to know, anyone wants the reason
I'm off grid I'm hurting, I'm closed for bereavement

I'm tied up with regret, this loss breaks my spirit
I'm hanging on to the last words, the last words you said
And grief is my shadow and oh the dark it takes its lonely toll
Lock me up throw the key, this person is closed

Some time in the distance I might see the sun again
Feel the rain on my back to know I'm still alive
And until that morning when I can wake without crying
I don't want no memories 'cause they break me inside

So pull down the shutters and lower the flags
I'm AWOL I'm a little lost for the family I had
Anyone wants to know, anyone wants the reason
I'm off grid I'm hurting, I'm closed for bereavement
I'm off grid I'm hurting...I'm closed for bereavement

There's a couple of car commercial music that I like. I don't know who the singers are, though.
