about

Written, recorded and performed by Joel Holmes. Music video out on Youtube.

This song was completed entirely within the day after the 2019 UK General Election - the obvious political connotations are used to express that feeling of shock and blind panic that you can feel despite the environment around you being still and calm.

"A beautiful song and recording" - Wally de Backer (Gotye)

lyrics

Looks like the numbers have scarred me
Looks like the words are true
Looks like the red wall is tumbling
Never thought it would be for you

Now I'm lying, my back on the floor
This is one push too far
Now the red wall is crumbling
I don't feel so strong

And I will try to see it better
And I'll resign to a new December
And I'll invite you to smile with me
And I will try to, I will try to

Now the red wall is falling
Bring your parade straight through
