CW: Epstein victims, Virginia Giuffre

Songwriting is always the place I go when confronting really challenging events in the world or in my personal life. The horrors that have gradually emerged as rumor or accusation over the past 10-15 years are now becoming increasingly solid. It is really hard to face, but if any sliver of justice is to occur, we need to, if we can.

Am G Am It’s too hard to take, Dm F It’s too much to look at, C E7 It tears at my heart, Am C G And it threatens to drown me in grief,

G		      E7		  Am

When I realize that demons are real, G E7 Am And horrors exist that once were Dm F So far beyond F Dm Beyond belief. Am G F Of a simple and innocent soul,

These demons in skin, Have been walking among us for years, In our Churches and Schools, Grinding young flesh into tears,

In the congress and the white house, The powerful sate their desires, And then we’re faced Faced with the fact, That the truth is worse than all our fears,

Princes, Producers and Playboys, In every position of power, If you want torture or death, You’ll find you can pay by the hour,

Come now cosmic justice, Burn through the structures of pain, Humans can’t face this, No Human can face this, It’s Nuremberg over again.
