lyrics

SCROLLING ON

Welcome to the wonder
Of a light that shone so bright
The shake of hands brought changing plans
Set the promises alight

She'd been organising
She'd been gathering her strength

The dollars came too easy
Action rolled the tape
It's a full-on scene in a distant dream
Where she can't seem to wake

They show no mercy
There won't be rest until there's peace

She can't turn around
She can't tell them 'no'
There's pain instead
She's gonna pay to cure it now

Ambition lost
In a box in the loft
Now it ain't the same as it was
Back in those days
She remembers the heyday

Here the angel rusts
Here they're all the same
'Cos there's none so brave
To chase that beast away

Scrolling on

She became the misfit
Scapegoat number one
Hunkered down in flat broke towns
With her promises undone

She's gone missing again
She's been acting pretty strange

Scrolling on

Where the fog cloaks the hills
She'll see the last of the dam break
Downtown she's resting maybe
The rest is left for dead

Scrolling on
Scrolling on
Keep scrolling on
Scrolling on
