about

'The tyrant's not in a castle, he’s behind tinted glass and steel'.
At your desk or at your station? A song for the modern world of work.

lyrics

Why can't you see,
How fragile we are?
Why don't you know, we all carry scars?
We are not machines,
Not just flesh and bone,
The need to touch, is gently carved, into our souls

Why do you think our worth is efficiency?
And conditioned responses?
There's more of us to see,
You can wear a suit,
But when the suit is wearing you,
You've lost the plot, missed the point,
There's nothing more to do

Who's afraid of the dark?
We're all afraid of the dark,
We're scared of lightening, shadows, God and sea,
And midnight in the park,
We need to hold hands,
Just to get us through,
'Cause when you are afraid of the dark,
There’s nothing more to do,
Who’s afraid of the dark?

The tyrant's not in the castle,
He's behind tinted glass and steel,
He believes that the measure of a man,
Is in how less he can feel,
What are we now?
What shall we become?
As they take away all signs of life,
We’re uncomfortably numb

Who's afraid of the dark ...

Who’s afraid of the dark ...
