It's All As It Was Neil Southern
Every morning I awake at five
The room looks the same
As it always has
The sound of the birds
They have so much to say
As I make my first brew
It’s all as it was
Yesterday
So I walk to the car
It’s in the same place
Same colour same make
The key still fits the lock
The same whine as I pull away
Same guy on the radio
Saying just what he said
Yesterday
The whole structure of life
The sky and the ground
The Oceans the wonders
Politics and religion
Things flying in the sky
Tunnels under the sea
Was it a dream or was it all there
Yesterday
You see the point I make
Is that it all seems so real
Each day is the same
The world charges on
But what if we are just fools
And none of this exists
That there is no Love or Hate or Pain or Wars or Peace or Life or Death or Tomorrow
Or Yesterday
