Societal unrest throughout the world is taking a toll on most. We are constantly exposed to war, devastation, mass shootings, corporate greed, civil divisions, and climate change. One can’t help but wonder about the future and the possibility of more dark days up ahead.

Lyrics
Well I feel it in my bones that the dark days are coming
Hard to miss the war and destruction
We’re desensitized by the latest mass shooting
Debilitated by all the feuding
I feel it in my bones
You might say that these bones talk for themselves
Warned me when I’ve tip toed to close to the edge of Hell
Now I feel that cold aching shivering pain
Like when I know it’s about to pour down, pour down in rain
I feel it in my bones
Well I feel it in my bones that the dark days are coming
Hard to miss the war and destruction
We’re desensitized by the latest mass shooting
Debilitated by all the feuding
I feel it in my bones
See the signs the world is breaking down
Generational scapegoating has sent us Hell bound
I ask you how much longer can this go on?
I stare despondently into this bleak phenomenon
I feel it in my bones
Well I feel it in my bones that the dark days are coming
Hard to miss the war and destruction
We’re desensitized by the latest mass shooting
Debilitated by all the feuding
I feel it in my bones
Corruption, lies, and exploitation
What can we do?
People in power sensor those who speak the truth
Art and music used to be a catalyst for change
They silence prophets when there’s no money to be made
I feel it in my bones
Well I feel it in my bones that the dark days are coming
Hard to miss the war and destruction
We’re desensitized by the latest mass shooting
Debilitated by all the feuding
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
