Live, Original and Acoustic - The Line (Stand and Stand Together)

Here is a song I wrote this morning - feeling strongly about the encroaching line on our freedoms here in Australia.

Lyrics:

[Am (G) Am, F (E) F]
There is a hard line
That sits within you
The rights gone today
You stood up for yesterday
You're now a radical
For blatantly being free
Left wing, right wing
The same rotten tree

[open chords Am, F]
Rot at the heart of the core
Rot at the heart of the beast
The same corruption
The same hollow seed
The chill at the valley of shadows
Knock, knock, knocking at your door
The same deception
The same unfulfilled need

[Dm, F, Am (G) Am]
Everytime you shuffle your feet
To sacrifice a portion
You surely trade your soul
For lies and foul deceit
The line is coming closer
Radical you and radical me
Compromise in fear
Or stand and up the gear

[Am (G) Am, F (E) F]
Stand and stand together
Hold your ground indeed
Walk the line inside
Choose the right to see

Stand and stand together
Hold your ground indeed
Walk the line inside
Choose the right to see

[open chords Am, F]
Stand and stand together
Hold your ground indeed
Walk the line inside
Choose the right to see

Stand and stand together
Hold your ground indeed
Walk the line inside
Choose the right to see

[G, F, Am]
eeeeeeee....

Please - copy this song, sing this song on the streets, in pubs, in bars, in gigs all over, at weddings, funerals and protests - stand together!

Thanks for listening!

A nice tune, a good message, wish more people could stand together, that there was no line between the people, and we could all walk in time.

Thank you, thanks for coming and checking it out!

This is so great! Found you by accident, digging around in #OCD posts. Glad I did. I'm sorta new to #3speak so it's always a lot of fun when I find someone putting out terrific content over there. Please keep doing that!

Thanks a lot, glad you found it. Have an awesome day!

I hear you on this, so many are just sticking their heads in the sand as we lose our freedoms. This is already having a huge affect on our well being, and it will only get worse unless we all stand together. Very Powerful words my friend thank you for this xxx

Thank you!

This is the best one. Especially the spoken word intro.

Here's some automatic writing I did not long ago on the same subject of this 'line' -
