lyrics

Close your eyes and hold your ears you’re not gonna need them.
Cuz outside the drums of war can be felt through the ground.
Have we forgotten our mistakes or is this time unlike the last?
Have the demons we’ve created become too powerful too fast?
So send the children of the pawns to bring the battle to another land.
Well you don’t care cuz they’re not yours or those who come at night with cash in hand.
Hey you we see right through your scare tactics and exaggerated foes.
The enemy is here at home and he’s one that we all know.
Oh, what the hell have we been teaching
All these lies-our pundits have been preaching
Well the ever changing enemy breeds a never ending war
But its just to line some pockets we wont listen anymore
I’m still searching for the meaning, I’m still searching for the truth
Better keep your children inside before somebody steals them.
Your next walk alone through the park very well could be your last.
All these perils we have shown, are waiting for you outside your home.
Tune in again at 10 we’ll tell you everything that you need to know.
So watch your neighbors lock your doors do what it takes to keep your family safe.
Take off your shoes report suspicions there's a terrorist on every plane. So to appease the advertisers its far worse than it appears.
Don’t reach for the remote theres so much more for you to fear.
Who the hell are they misleading.
With all these lies our newscasters are reading.
If we believed in every words you said we would never walk out the door.

Paladino Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Equally rich in meaning and melody, Paladino delivers honest, heartfelt lyrics and soaring, stirring harmonies. Their songs blend genres (indie folk, bluegrass, Americana rock), artistic influences (Chris Thile, Paul McCartney, ‘90s rock) and subject matter (loss, defiance, the search for connection) with poetic imagery and novelistic detail, shot through with real emotion and dynamic musicality. ... more
