  • You of grace
    Many ghosts alive in my mind
    Many paths I wish I'd taken
    Many times I thought I'd break
    Because in kind it seems to be
    A way beyond the bends
    There be songs to play
    There be grace for everyone
    And calmer days will arrive
    And we would not need to ask

    Why everything
    In this world been lost ever since
    And we're not giving in
    We're not gonna shy away
    We're growing tall with the pain
    We're searching the everglades
    And suing God with change
    And furthermore, I think it's just too late Writer/s: Damon Albarn, David Rowntree, Graham Coxon, Steven James
