Mayday

by James Carr

supported by

Shane Larmand Nice to hear a new track from James as he delivers us another covid- apocalyptic lyrical theme in a mellower and darker vein than in Flat Screen View of Damnation. It's another great song from a damn fine songwriter.

about

It's been a rough year so far!

lyrics

Heading into darkness
Walking hand in hand with the blind
Staring straight at the devil
As hope slips further behind
The wheels of the machine
Leaves a trail of broken souls
Say a prayer for tomorrow
Before hell swallows us whole

Round and round and round we go, where it’ll stop nobody knows
Just like puppets on a string in a candy coated dream / Technicolor
No John Wayne’s gonna guide us home
So keep your face buried in your phone
SOS, Help, Mayday We’ve lost our way

Taking center stage is the great divide
pitting man against man
Power and greed is an ancient tale
that turns cities into sand
And as the distance shrinks
Between what is right and wrong
Will we find redemption
Or is temptation just to strong
