Dan Jordan - Rebelvision

Snow white grips her shadow tight
It's harder than ever to keep out of the light
When there's a lot of noise coming from behind that rehab door
Call it a write off; call it an exile for the will
Call it heaven's gate; call it a damn good deal
Either way, she's not that bothered that she's been here before

Politicians stand and deliver
Word is that you can draw your pistols quicker
You may still believe that the devil looks after his own
All roads lead to nowhere fast
Only a fool thinks that this luck will last
But you are most bruised when you are all alone

Lady luck now, it seems she seldom speaks
She keeps her head down low, sits jaded and weeps
While all the drunks are hung on up in the alley to dry
How does someone so young get so bitter?
On a steady diet of slimming pills and twitter
Stumbling on her thoughts as life passes her by

She's like an emerald set in rust
Whilst fortune and wealth go bust
Turns out we never did have different needs
We were just moving at different speeds

Stand together or fall by division
Tune in to your rebelvision
And when the midnight hour sinks on in
That's when darkness becomes king

From the washed-up hacks to the Queen of porn
Who substitute pride with jealous scorn
Behind a shoddy film set where ambition once stood
Not even the grim reaper would touch you now
If you only knew, if the stars would allow
One rare peek at the truth behind the curtain of Oz

It's contagious, like a favourite drug
So don't be too quick to judge
It's a blessing and a curse
But at least it can't get worse

Stand together or fall by division
Tune in to your rebelvision
And when the midnight hour sinks on in
That's when darkness becomes king

And the sombre winter king
Talks down to his queen of spring
But he knows if they don't learn to co-exist
Then tragedy can lead to God or bitterness

Stand together or fall by division
Tune in to your rebelvision
And when the midnight hour sinks on in
That's when darkness becomes king
