I wrote this song a couple of months ago and for some reason didn't post it. I wrote it around the time of the BP oil spill. Anyways make up your own minds about it and I look forward to looking at some of your comments. Thanks for listening guys ;) x

Lyrics:

Verse1

The black starts to crawl and seep it's way through, people are tied to the shore stumbling for something to do,
It's an unstoppable force that can erupt into flames, nothing will shift it's course as they point the blame,

Verse 2

Look at what we've sacrificed for a dream thats now a curse, was it worth the price and the toll take on this world,
It's like tumbling dice oh a gamble that has turned, this once blue paradise into a child that knotted a burned

Chorus
Just one more sip from this golden cup,
It brushes their lips they want that midas touch, that midas touch.

Verse 3

As they quickly look away and we choke on their lies, no term of four or eight will reveal the truth they despise,
They're here to stay I can feel the wool as it tries, almost everyday to cover up my bloodshot eyes,

Verse 4

There's potholes that we sink in, i sit down share a drink with some good, some good friends of mine,
We're world weary and we're thinkin, we need to bring it back from the brink yea, those thoughts they flood my mind and..

Chorus
