A Flash Flood of Colour

"It's one of the softer tracks on the album… and it gives me a chance to tinkle on a guitar which I do enjoy from time to time. It's got some of our juiciest vocal harmonies to date too, which we laid down in the studio after a few pints of thai rum. The drunker you are, the better your harmonies are. Fact.
"Stalemate" definition... A situation in which further action or progress by opposing or competing parties seems impossible.
Humans have been fighting for many reasons for many many years.
Some wars are won, some wars are lost, some wars are abandoned…
People die, people survive, but what always endures is hatred and sadness.
War is a symptom of our culture. Nothing will change unless the environment we live in doesn't bring about reason for war. All the wars fought today are fought for the acquisition of resources or land. When we start living equally and sustainably we'll look back and laugh at the primitive way people used to squabble and murder each other".
Previous wars made billionaires out of millionaires,
Today's wars make trillionaires out of billionaires,
Tomorrows wars will fuel generations of hate,
Generations of hate..

I'm losing my grip on reality,
I cannot simply agree -that we are civilized,
Acting like this Earth is infinite,
It's a chess board of lies that will generate Stalemate,
It will generate Stalemate,

So yes I've -gone to the hills again,
So yes I've -gone away..

Money is made while bombs are dropping in Afghanistan
When white phosphorous falls in Palestine,
Hauling weapons out of reprobates,
Arming anyone who wants a taste of disgrace,
Wants a taste of disgrace..

So yes I've -gone to the hills again,
So yes I've -gone away,
So yes I've -gone to the hills again,
So yes I've -gone away...
Hey!

Oh! So! I've drifted away in disbelief,
So yes I've, yes I've gone to the hills again

And I'll live out this fantasy
And I'll live out this fantasy
I'll live this fantasy
I'll live this fan-
[2x]

And I'll live out this fantasy..
And I'll live out this fantasy..
I'll live this fantasy..
I'll live this fantasy..
