[Intro] (Two acoustic guitars intertwining, one picking and one strumming) [Verse 1] The world is a weird cat now Sleeping light and twisting that tail Hunting and killing everything in sight Man, that ain’t no way to live a life. [Verse 2] Those claws are leaking poison, man He’s lost his touch with the soul of the land It’s a toxic smear, ain't no cheer Just the cold, grey ring of a spreading fear. [Harmony Vocal enters] Cool Cat used to have your back Before the light started fading to black He’s taking our clan and he’s gone to ground Leaving us in the war lines alone. [Bridge - Build Energy] [Full Vocal Harmonies] The man, he’s down, he’s hard, he ain’t home But sister, we don’t have to be alone. (Short, melodic acoustic guitar solo) [Verse 3 - Stripped Back] Making my way through the old downtown Flood took hold and shut most shops down Sadness rings the whole place with sorrow Empty eyes mixed with lost memories Where we are can't see what can be. [Chorus - Warm and Uplifting] [Powerful Multi-part Harmonies] When you get to the bottom and get knocked down again You need a good friend Count your friends and send them love So many things can hit in a blink of an eye So much that hurts to your soul. [Outro] (Vocalizing "Oohs" and "Ahhs" over a fading acoustic guitar melody) [End]
