I need to do my lyric stuff before I combust and explode

With the hard times right now, with the site stuff, I need my dopamine rush of posting random verses/choruses before I combust of boredom that I can’t share the songs I’m listening to >:[

Gone now are the old times
Forgotten, time to hold on the railing
The Rubik’s Cube isn’t solving for us
Old friends, long forgotten
They all wait at the bottom of
The ocean now has swallowed

The only thing that’s left is us
So pardon the silence that you’re hearing
Is turnin’ into a deafening
Painful, shameful roar

Think about it, there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is wasted time
Look inside your heart, I’ll look inside mine

… Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

… Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love (oh oh)
Bring me a higher love
Where’s that higher love I keep thinking of?

-Higher Love by Steve Winwood

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn’t agree.
You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn’t agree.
Generation

What is in us that turns a deaf ear to the cries of human suffering?
WHOA!
SUFFERING NOW!

You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn’t agree.
You and me will all go down in history,
With a sad Statue of Liberty,
And a Generation that didn’t agree.

Hate to say I told you so
Alright
Come on
Do believe I told you so

Do what I please, gonna spread the disease
Because I wanna
Gonna call all the shots for the no’s and the not’s
Because I wanna
Yeahh!

Ask me once, I’ll answer twice
'Cause all I know I’ll tell
Because I wanna
Sound advice and lots of ice
I’ll spell my name out loud
Because I wanna
Oh, yeah

Touch, sweet touch
You’ve given me too much to feel
Sweet touch
You’ve almost convinced me I’m real
I need something more
I need something more

All this machinery making modern music
Can still be open-hearted
Not so coldly charted, it’s really just a question of your honesty
Yeah, your honesty

One likes to believe in the freedom of music
But glittering prizes and endless compromises
Shatter the illusion of integrity, yeah

Invisible airwaves crackle with life
Bright antennae bristle with the energy
Emotional feedback on a timeless wavelength
Bearing a gift beyond price, almost free

How does it feel
To treat me like you do?
When you’ve laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are?

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me, how do I feel?
Tell me now, how do I feel?

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They’ll turn away no more

And still, I find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But, I’m quite sure that you’ll tell me
Just how I should feel today
