To Kill a King - Spiritual Dark Age

Thanks so much, we've got two more songs for you.
So we've just brought out our third record and its called The Spiritual Dark Age and um this is the title track to that album...


Spiritual Dark Age

So the good man said
turns out god is dead
they’re worshipping science instead
faith in books they haven’t read
They're angry all the time
angry at some hole inside
Welcome to the spiritual dark age

Oh don’t lose your grip
don’t get contemplative
about the space we live
between first breath and then the grave
No need to be saved
just some rules on how to behave
Welcome to the spiritual dark age

Oh forget about love
it’s not a hand from above
it’s not some dream and there’s the rub
just chemicals that flood your brain
They're writing poetry
about serotonin and dopamine
Welcome to the spiritual dark age

I'm not alone and you're not alone in this
There’s no map and we’re all just set adrift
Just children making pictures in the sky
Arguing about who is wrong and who is right

So the good man said
turns out god is dead
we are on our own this time
to work out what is yours and mine
No reward to being kind
no quick fix to the fear you’ll find
Welcome to the spiritual dark age

Pass me those sedatives
pass on being sentimental
empathy and talking gentle
blinkers on and take the medal
The day the TV died
only tie keeping the family alive
Welcome to the spiritual dark age

I'm not alone and you're not alone in this
There’s no map and we’re all just set adrift
Just children making pictures in the sky
Arguing about who is wrong and who is right

do da doo do da doo x7

I'm not alone and you're not alone in this
There’s no map and we’re all just set adrift
Just children making pictures in the sky
Arguing about who is wrong and who is right
