about

'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.'
Charles Dickens - A Tale of Two Cities

'First time in the Yabba?"
Wake in Fright

From Palaces and Slums EP, originally released August 19, 2020

lyrics

The sun is warm and golden, and our blue marble’s broken
The sea is close to boiling point but our reasoning is frozen

Pack up your things, they’re calling our number,
should we wonder if we’ll make it out alive
Seconds out Round None,
the fury in the face of Mother Nature tells us
no one will survive
There’s no way back from here, we’ve all got a one-way ticket
to Hell in a handcart, too late for a new start
We’re all in the flames and there’s no one to blame but each other

Say your goodbyes, can’t say we were not warned,
as the icebergs all fall down like dominoes
We put a crack in the jewel, this ship of fools deserves to sink
beneath the plastic-coated blue

There’s no way back from here, we’ve all got a one-way ticket
to Hell in a handcart, too late for a new start
We’re all in the flames and there’s no one to blame but each other
