Through the Storm to the Shore

by Theo Simms

Lyrics

Growing pains are shooting up our spine
So we cut the nerve to stop the hurt inside
Blind in the night to the real reasons why
So we continue to fight, we continue to cry

Break it up, it’s not their fault or yours
Expose the ones who are profitting from the war
If we use our hearts we don’t need to use force
We’ll take away their power by claiming ours

Stay with me until the new dawn rises
Sailing the seas until we find what we’re looking for
Through the storm to the shore

Millions more are waking every day
In their own time in their own way
Well I’m not who they used to be they say
We’re changing all the rules, we’re making up a new game

Stay with me until the new dawn rises
Sailing the seas until we find what we’re looking for
Through the storm to the shore

When the waves came crashing overboard
We couldn’t take it anymore
Just when we thought our time was up
Out came the sun, hey, yeah, in everyone
Out came the sun, yeah, rising everyone

Notes

This song speaks about psychic numbing in the face of the growing pains of the Industrial Growth Society, and the need to stick together through the storm of the Great Unraveling.
