Eden Bloom – High Note (live demo)

by Eden Bloom
from Without a Book

I want to try to end on a high note.
I want the kids to have something they can sing at school.
I want to tell you its gonna be okay,
but it isn’t, and it wasn’t, it won’t, it don’t

The only thing real is that its never been okay.
The only thing real is that it’s never been okay.
never been okay.

I want to end on a high note.
I want the kids to have something they can sing at school.
Wouldn’t that be cool?
I want to tell you its gonna be okay,
but it won’t, it don’t, it isn’t,
It wasn’t never was, never is, never will be.
Never was, never is, never will be.
The only thing real is its never been okay
The only thing real is that its never been okay

It may have seemed okay,
once upon a time,
way back when
for you.

some talking ‘bout
wanting to make it great again,
For who?

They want to take us back
to a better time, but it’s just
not true.

okay is a momentary moment
drawn out in the mind
to trick you.

I know, I hold on
to my moments
too, back when I thought it was okay.

I want to try to end on a high note.
I want the kids to have something they can sing at school.
That would be real cool.
There’ll be balloons, a happy tune, and cartoon elephants too.
I want to tell you it’s gonna be okay.
But it isn’t, never was, never is, never will be,

Till we change the machinery.
Till we change the machinery.

Till we change the machinery.
