No words can describe what I feel Economies are falling why must I kneel While governments are stalling no one's at the wheel This is out of control We've crossed the Rubicon everything is gone Got me a gun so get off my lawn Pandemic got me falling no I can't hang on This is out of control Out of control whoa whoa Out of control whoa whoa Out of control whoa whoa This is out of control Nowhere to run I just need someone To tell me it's O.K so I see the sun It's 11:59 and we've come undone This is out of control Out of control whoa whoa Out of control whoa whoa Out of control whoa whoa This is out of control Easter canceled Birthday canceled School canceled Christmas canceled Freedom canceled Out of control whoa whoa Out of control whoa whoa Out of control whoa whoa This is out of control Out of control ah ah Out of control ah ah Out of control ah ah This is out of control

I thought I was But then I wasn't I gave it my all Thought I was 10 feet tall But I wasn't You said you loved me Have another martini Good Times Charlie Enjoy the party But when the fall came I looked for you You were Gone gone gone Gone gone gone Gone gone gone I used to be somebody A really big shot Green checks in my pocket thought I'd never get caught Let you borrow my cars and things Make a Buck Chuck Helped you on your feet When you were down on your luck But when the fall came I looked for you You were Gone gone gone Gone gone gone Gone gone gone You were gone gone gone But when the fall came I looked for you You were Gone gone gone Gone gone gone Gone gone gone

Pandemia 04:31
Oh how shall I its deeds recount Or measure the untold amount Of ills that it has done In Pandemia From China's dark celestial lands Came a virus we don't understand A COVID 19 attack In Pandemia In Italy they shut it down Dov'e La Passeggiata there is no sound Only death and destruction In Pandemia Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhh Pandemia Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhh Pandemia My Spanish friends lay in their bed While begging their government Para detener el dolor In Pandemia In the U.S.A. they turned away Called it a hoax so they can play With their politics and shame In Pandemia And so we're left to grieve the dead While we the people shake our heads And the enemy lives on and on In Pandemia Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhh Pandemia Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhh Pandemia

Tell me a story of darkness Tell me a story without light Take me to places where I will see faces Without bones It's a fight for truth It'll last forever Make yourself strong An endless endeavor Step in the mindfield You're not feeling fine field In the United States of America You wanna feed your family A structural calamity It's an octopus effect With the tentacles stretching out Around your neck Yes they mind you coming here They're wasting all our time time Building walls around their fears They've lost their freakin' minds, yeah Cause it's the color of our skin Ignorance don't want to let us in They mind you coming here That's them talking in their sleep Rocket to the sky gonna get me high Rocket to the sky just a simple guy Searchin' for the sun it moves across the sky My rocket takes me further to the end of Pi Life's just full of make-up A hellava cover-up No one to witness honesty No one tells you the truth Cause that's the policy You see that roadside junkie He's a caged off monkey They put him out to die His brain was fried His brain was fried His brain was fried Gelatine spines corrupting my mind Gelatine spines corrupting my mind Gelatine spines corrupting my mind Gelatine spines corrupting my mind You hear every Robert Johnson Howlin' in the Wind They put them out to die Under the poverty skies Who cares if they were An honest guy Forgotten men and minstrels They gonna die Like them you got a dashing suit Ooh Ohh broken underneath the boot I hear you cry How'd you ever become that guy That guy That guy How did you ever become that guy How did you ever become that guy Tell me a story of darkness Tell me a story without light Take me to places where I will see faces Without bones

Never found a four leaf clover to bring good luck to me No rabbit's foot no lucky star no magic wishing tree Cause I got lucky yes I got lucky with a girl like you when I found you (when I found you) Got no rainbow around my shoulder no horseshoe on my door But I got you to hold me tight and who could ask for more Cause I got lucky yeah I got lucky in my blue suede shoes When I found you (when I found you) I always walk around with all my fingers crossed I'm afraid the love I found just might get lost When I found you (when I found you) So won't you tell me that you love me hurry up and name the day And then I'll know that my good luck is really here to stay Cause I got lucky yes I got lucky with a girl like you Cause I got lucky yes I got lucky in my blue suede shoes Cause I got lucky yeah I got lucky can you feel it too When I found you (When I found you)

Just wanna live Be left alone On my own But you have killed me Just wanna live At one with god On this guitar But you have killed me So you push me and kick me And break me into pieces Why'd ya grab me and stab me Can't you see I bleed for you I bleed for you Why do you hate me Don't be so cruel I Love You! Just wanna live Another day Without the rain But you have killed me So you push me and kick me And break me into pieces Why'd ya grab me and stab me Can't you see I bleed for you I bleed for you So you push me and kick me And break me into pieces Can't you hug me And kiss me And break these lonely chains I hate you I really hate you Cause you hurt me I love you I still love you I love you

As I walk along I wonder A-what went wrong with our love A love that was so strong And as I still walk on I think of The things we've done together While our hearts were young I'm a-walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain Wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder Ah wah wah wah wah wonder Why why why Why Why Why Why Why She ran away hey Cause I wonder Where she will stay My little runaway A run run run run runaway And as I play guitar I'm calling Out to you can you hear me I'm playing you our song I can hear you but my heart is breaking into pieces Why is everything so wrong? I'm a-walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain Wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder Ah wah wah wah wah wonder Why why why Why Why Why Why Why She ran away hey Cause I wonder Where she will stay My little runaway A run run run run runaway Run! I'm a-walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain Wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder Ah wah wah wah wah wonder Why why why Why Why Why Why Why She ran away hey Cause I wonder Where she will stay My little runaway A run run run run runaway A run run run run runaway A run run run run runaway A run run run run runaway A run run run run runaway A run run run run runaway A run run run run Why did you run? Come back
