The Rock That Rolled Away

(album: Shake The World - 2020)

In days before there was a different state of mind
A feeling ruled both night and day
But then the clouds rolled in and the spirit fell behind
The better angels lost their way

Sold their souls
Earth got cold
We're told no one saw the signs

Gotta find the rock that rolled away
We can't just leave it for another day no no!
In time we'll know it's here to stay
When we finally find the rock that rolled away

Why does it happen good intentions turn to greed
Is that the best that we can do
It's hard to get all of the answers that we need
You gotta tell the lies from truth

Turn this round
Unfit crown
Shakedown everything in sight

'Til we find the rock that rolled away
We can't just leave it for another day no no!
In time we'll know it's here to stay
When we finally find the rock that rolled away

(Gotta roll it) gotta roll it back
(Can't stop it) can't stop the light coming in gotta let it shine
(Gotta hold it) can't keep it under your skin
(Gotta roll it) gotta roll it back, back, back, back

Turn this round
Unfit crown
Shake it down
Sold their souls
Earth got cold
We're told no one saw the signs

We'll find the rock that rolled away
We can't just leave it for another day
In time we'll know it's here to stay
There's nothing more to say 'til we finally find the rock that rolled away

Gotta roll it, gotta roll it
Gotta roll it, gotta roll it

Gotta rock and roll it
Gotta rock and roll the rock that rolled away

Gotta roll it
Gotta roll it
Gotta roll it back
The rock that rolled away
