about

This is a song written in response to the Toronto tragedy (April 2018) when that crazy guy (Alex Minassian) drove a van onto the pavement on Yonge Street, Toronto killing and injuring many people all in the name of "Incel" (Involantary cellebates)!

lyrics

Walking with angels now above
Singing on the way you rove
All thoes angels that never love
Bring you down far from the dove

Falling angels just don't fly
Round and round so all must die
Batter ram then sob and cry
It's a tragedy a lie

Now looking away
All those bodies gone astray
Will you ever live it down
In this calm and peacefull town

Singing: Hey! Hey! Hey!
You're going down
Through the: Pain! Pain! Pain!
Feel the surgeon's gown

We were just looking away
From a place where we once lay
_____________________________

_____________________________

So they've paid the final price
In a cold throw of the dice
Now your name's going down in coloured lights
Are you happy in your fight

So you're raging in the night
Has all ended with their plight
Are you feeling now redeemed
Through the blood stains that have screemed

Walking with angels now above
Singing on the way you rove
All thoes angels that never love
Bring you down far from the dove

Falling angels just don't fly
Round and round so all must die
Batter ram then sob and cry
It's a tragedy a lie

I generally write the basic structure and lyrics, then allow collaborating musicians to write their parts over the basic structure. This can lead to some interesting and surprising results. ... more
