lyrics

I heard a drunk man outside
Not treating his woman right
In his voice there was sorrow
In her face
Fear for tomorrow
So i called upon his darkened soul
His heart had already gone too cold
He forgot about the only truth of the universe that implies
Joy brings Joy
Violence brings Violence
As you can see
All men are falling
As you can hear
Women are crying
What has become
Of our species
seems to me we have
Lost touch with humanity
Sanity, respecting and loving
And teaching to be free
Come closer darling
I mean you no harm
I know they touched you
Karma knows it too now
We all have seen them
We all know the truth
Joy brings Joy
Violence brings Violence
I heard a wild man outside
His mind has fallen behind time
He was stuck in ancient times
He forgot about human rights
So I called upon his darkened soul
His heart had already gone too cold
He forgot about the only truth of the universe that implies
Joy brings Joy
Violence brings Violence
As you can see
All men are falling
As you can hear
Women are crying
What has become
Of our species
seems to me we have
Lost touch with humanity
Sanity, respecting and loving
And teaching to be free
Come closer darling
I mean you no harm
I know they touched you
Karma knows it too now
We all have seen them
We all know the truth
They cant run away
We all have seen them
We all know the truth
They can’t run away because
Joy brings Joy
Violence brings Violence

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer

WALL's debut LP is also their last, as the band is no more - bittersweet. Experimental post-punk that works in light & shade. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 1, 2017
