Or Else (Live)

from The Realignment Session by Stuart O'Connor

lyrics

Back to where we were back then, the glory days of then, Back to where we wish to be again.

Back to where there was that spark, the light before the dark, the point of no return may have come my friend.

We have to go back, there ain't no doubt about it.
There are no two ways about this now.
But the lady in the mask and the man having the tantrum, are buffering their way through the snow.

It's all you know.

So we have to go back, and run amok through all that make us, pull the shutters down on all invaders, hole up with tins of tomatoes and beans, there'll be a glitch on every screen, because it's all on display, everything is on display.

We have go back.

So I place myself right at the top, of a pyramid structure where from there they drop and I place those close next in line, knives behind our backs while we look you in the eye> It's a trickle down economy of massive inequality> remove the mask you're gonna see they're fucking the majority> with links to west indies> havens for the big leagues> leave them in a quandary> the motto of a ponzi> Sitting right there at the top, of a high rise structure while shops below are boarded up, yes the knock on effects are real, what's the point to beg or borrow while everyone steals is the moral of the story> everything is hunky dory> though the details maybe gory> don't look back just run for glory> past the post in celebration> podium for affirmation> link the goals to your frustration> to achieve intoxication.
