vero and russ8889 - Perfect World

The instrumental part of this song was made with audio tracks that our friend Russ8889 had picked and edited. Inspiration from those tracks did the rest.

" In a perfect world, we've lived so long
Blind to the cracks, we thought we were strong
But now the walls are crumbling down
Revealing truths we can't outrun
Are we too scared to face the storm?
Too weak to fight, too numb to mourn?
Will we let others drown in fear
While we cling to our fading veneer?
Democracy's light begins to fade
Compromise with darkness, deals we've made
How much will we give to keep the peace?
When will we learn that threats don't cease?
There's no perfect world, there never was
The past looks brighter than it does
But hiding won't make the danger pass
It's time to break this looking glass
Think of those who came before
Who faced the wars, the iron door
They found their hope in darker days
Let's find that strength in different ways
We can’t dream of perfection's light
But we can make the world less blight
Don't surrender, don't turn away
Stand and fight for a brighter day
The war's not coming, it's already here
Will you join the fight or disappear?
It won't get better if we just wait
So rise up now, before it's too late "
