lyrics

The Rising Tide

Here come the rising tide,
Here come the old divides,
Does everybody read the Daily Mail?
Does everybody think that kindness fails?

I know you think we’re not the same,
That our lives aren’t born out of circumstance,
They're ours to shape.
I know you think we’re not the same,
But where does it end?
What will you defend?

Here comes the rising tide,
Here come the old divides,
Does everybody read the Daily Mail?
Does everybody think that kindness fails?

Here comes the rising tide,
Here comes the sharp decline,
Does everybody read the Daily Mail?
Does everybody think that kindness fails?

I know I can’t lock myself away,
Go bury my head in the sand,
Because I don’t relate,
Coz these fears are here to stay,
And hate breeds hate,
There’s no time to waste.

Here comes the rising tide,
Here come the old divides,
Does everybody read the Daily Mail?
Does everybody think that kindness fails?

Here comes the rising tide,
Here comes the sharp decline,
Does everybody read the Daily Mail?
Does everybody think that kindness fails?
That kindness fails

-DM rant-
Secure the borders,
Build the wall,
So they don’t come knocking
At our front door.
Coz they’ll swarm our streets,
They’ll bring their crime
They’ll take our jobs,
They’ll ruin our lives.
Don’t let them in,
Root them out,
Make sure there’s not
One shadow of a doubt
That there’s no room for compassion,
It’s us or them,
Survival of the fittest,
Sink or swim

What’s love got to do,
To get through,
Through to you?
What’s love got to do,
To get through,
Through to you?
