This song is intended to cause us have more affection on our environment & bring us to our spiritual connectedness with the Source.
In a world full of chaos from one end to the other, with diseases, sickness, wars & rumours of wars. A world full of competition, lust, jealousy, hunger, poverty & all other ills we can think about. We can rest be assured that there's still HOPE. We tried in several occassions with piece treaties but failed time & time again. We have to ask ourselves where has the world's moral volues gone to? where & when we lost it & how/what can we do to recuperate it & restore things to their original order once again?
Is it possible?
Of Course it is!
If the WILL is there, if the heart is at the right place, if we learn how to accept our faults & turn away from them towards a path of true fellowship with another, then I can foresee heaven on earth before the rapture.
Switchfoot did what I call an "Exeptional" ... The Blues is not like the blues tunes you've heard about on love & erotic scenes but rather a blues of Reckoning, an Awakening blues ...
Christ be vindicated...
shalom!

"The Blues"
Is this the New Year or just another night?
Is this the new fear or just another fright?
Is this the new tear or just another desperation?
Is this the finger or just another fist?
Is this the kingdom or just a hit n' miss?
A misdirection, most in all this desperation
Is this what they call freedom?
Is this what you call pain?
Is this what they call discontented fame?
It'll be a day like this one
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
I'm singing this one like a broken piece of glass
From broken arms an' broken noses in the back
Is this the New Year or just another desperation?
You're pushing till you're shoving
You bend until you break
Till you stand on the broken fields where our fathers lay
It'll be a day like this one
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
There's nothing here worth saving,
Is no one here at all?
Is there any net left that could break our fall?
It'll be a day like this one
When the sky falls down and the hungry and poor and deserted are found
Are you discontented? Have you been pushing hard?
Have you been throwing down this broken house of cards?
It'll be a day like this one
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
Is there nothing left now?
Nothing left to sing
Are there any left who hasn't kiss the enemy?
Is this the New Year or just another desperation?
Does justice never find you? Do the wicked never lose?
Is there any honest song to sing besides these blues?
And nothing is okay
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Yes, my friend, the world is sure to cave in, as long as there are people who hate and seek to control others. But I honestly beleive that God's plan for us will prevail, that good will arise above all poverty, all wars, all chaos, all greed, and all self-righteousness, and that good, called LOVE, God's LOVE, will definitely prevail. And those who follow the light of that love will definitely see a better outcome, one that will end all poverty, all wars, all that is evil, in God's Kingdom. GB
