Growing Rage (Farrell Jackson © 2024)

1. Woke up head hurting... from solving the world's problems   

One drink led to another... as I struggled with the goblins
It seems discussions... just led to more questions
About promised change... and talk of succession

2. One thought after another...came to the forefront
About truth and transparency.... dulled by the hunt
A fading vision... as the masters pull the strings
Of empty words... to make the masses dream

3. The dark forces prepare... to take a province
An ugly means of will... of will to convince
Just give up that treasure... beneath your golden sands
Or it'll be taken anyway...any way it can

4. With growing rage... on the front page
Shoved in our faces... chipping away the traces
Of moral humanity... replacing sanity
With growing rage...................

5. There's no real change... just the blame game
As chaos climbs upon... upon the world stage
Another bad story... told over and over again
Nothing has changed... the world has gone insane

6. (repeat #2) Empty words... to make the masses dream

(solo break 2x)

7. It's just more of... the same old same old
Another broken promise... left out in the cold
More lives are lost... on the road to collapse
A turn of fate... that brings the last gasp

8. (repeat #2) Empty words... to make the masses dream

About the growing rage... setting the stage........
