about

The central piece of the album...I think. It pins together themes from some of the other songs. Thanks again to Chris Arnold for additional guitars.

lyrics

Someone, somewhere got it all so very wrong
And did something that let it in where it didn't belong
Whilst unaware we continue with our lives
As the viral load starts to rise.

It's time to dig on down, its time to hide!
Stay home! Protect each other! Save lives!
It doesn't really matter if you're old or young
There's a silent killer out there this pandemic has begun.
It doesn't really matter if you're old or young
There's a silent killer out there the pandemic has begun.
Our new future had begun.

And almost everything stops:
the offices, the factories, the pubs and the shops.
We stay in our houses and watch the TV
From the Government briefings its not hard to see
That as the statistics pile up on up
Its going to be a long time before this all stops.

But here and now beyond the doors and glass
the birds seem louder, the sky more blue,
the trees more robed in blossom than before.
But what about you? What about you?

Though separate now in self-confinement born of fear or love,
Whether held apart or thrown together, we do what we can do;
And henceforth may find our gaze brought much closer home
By these strange times so cruel, but so precious too.

But what about you?

We've got to pick up the bill...
