about

I started this song one morning, dismayed by headlines of kids separated from their families at the border, gun violence on the rise, the wealthy and corrupt avoiding accountability. I don't usually write political songs, but this felt personal—I wrote it to focus my anxiety and despair, to channel it in a way that made some beauty.

lyrics

Are we all done smiling?
The hurt begun
No more children’s games
Old Snake Eyes has won
And the flames are rising now
Are we all done
Are we all done smiling?

Bullets pop in the heat
Don’t stop, hit the gas, man, put this sucker in gear
Heads down, we’re hiding in the back seat
Get us far from this place, the hell out of here
A family rides from the graveside,
their child gone –
are we all done smiling?

Cowards cursing insults and rages
Goose step white feet that march a beat to that drum
carry the children into animal cages,
stone faces staring down, staring down, staring down.
Great again this evil line
of good undone
Are we all done smiling?

Pull out the stitches, let it bleed free
This the body of all your wounded worth,
Sell it all, let the market fall, let darkness mighty
roll over the sons and the daughters of all the fevered earth
gold jackpot burns
for no one

Are we?
Are we all?
Are we all done?
Are we all done smiling?
