The Lucky Ones

The Lucky Ones

A drum and bass ballad chronicles the confessions of a duplicitous political operative caught in the turmoil of an unfolding coup. We are not quite certain of the magnitude of their crimes or just what sides this partisan was on.

• Lyrics

  Oh, you lucky ones, arrived today
  To play this forward, back, replay
  Our lucky ones, arrived, today
  The leaning forward guards in grey

  I have counseled and misled them
  I have cheated and I’ve lied
  Everything for love of country
  I am here and I survived

  and, those shouting ones, who ran away
  YOU play this forward, back, replay
  without the guns, or teeth to stay
  and meet the forward guards in grey

  I have courted and betrayed them
  I deleted and denied
  Everything, for myth of country
  We are here, and he survived

  Oh, you lucky ones, arrived today
  Let’s play this forward, back, replay
  To chart a path and hide the way
  for leading forward guards in grey
