My Ears Are Still Ringing

from Fix the World by Carmen Toth

/

about

A song about the political extremities society goes to, especially in times of crisis.

lyrics

The world is steering in a direction I am fearing.
Extremist rebellions and the truths that they are selling.
Conspiracy theories that are discussed as serious queries.
Reject the laws of science with a threat of violence.

And my ears they are ringing,
From the songs that I am singing.
The cloud rolls in with a menace they are bringing, oh.
In the darkest hour, in the midst of the storm.
The pendulum swings my friend from the current norm.

And how are you fairing in a world that’s overbearing?
We will retreat from the enemy that we meet
So don’t be confused if I look like those who abuse
I’ll expose what I feel so you’ll know what is my deal

And my ears they are ringing,
From the songs that I am singing.
The cloud rolls in with a menace they are bringing, oh.
In the darkest hour, in the midst of the storm.
The pendulum swings my friend from the current norm.
Yes, my ears they are ringing, and the pendulum is swinging.
And in the darkest storm,
the pendulum swings from the current norm.

And is there magic left in a world that feels so tragic?
History’s been made, but the memories all fade.
Masses are deluded from facts that are convoluted.
We’re all exhausted from a message that is toxic.

And my ears they are ringing,
From the songs that I am singing.
The cloud rolls in with a menace they are bringing, oh.
In the darkest hour, in the midst of the storm.
The pendulum swings my friend from the current norm.
Yes, my ears they are ringing, and the pendulum is swinging.
And in the darkest storm,
the pendulum swings from the current norm,
the pendulum swings from the current norm.
Oh-oh-oh the pendulum swings from the current norm.
