I look to the West

by @paul-thomas-galbally

I don't know why I go on anymore My head's on the pillow My brain's out the door Crazy man, cell block 3 0 19 Shouting out nonsense And blasphemy I look to the West and it's lately a storm I look to the West and it's lately a storm People, oh people, why do you cry? You see falling buildings You think we'll all die But look to your history The reasons the ryhmes Don't believe popular And current lies I look to the West and its lately a storm I look to the West and its lately a storm I don't trouble, no I don't want pain But I don't want religion, I think it's insane I don't believe scriptures I think it's all lies The truth's in the look In a new child's eyes I look to West and it's lately a storm I look to the west and it's lately a storm

Notes

These are the lyrics for a song I wrote a good few years ago, but I thought I'd share it. You can hear the actual song on soundcloud at the following URL https://soundcloud.com/paul-galbally/sets/black-republic-the-hard-times
