The Cold Blooded Murder Of Albion by 1234567890 published on 2022-03-18T22:54:52Z I live in a country where, for example: • A new “animal welfare” bill will ensure that around 100 million sentient animals each year will suffer extreme, prolonged trauma and pain as they are slaughtered without having first been stunned. This is in order to respect minority religious beliefs. • Male convicted child abusers and rapists who decide to “identify as a woman” have the right to serve their sentences in women-only prisons so that their rights are not compromised. • The desperate, hysterical craving for universal “equality” manifests itself in obscene levels of positive discrimination to deliver race / gender etc "quotas". • Ransoms of hundreds of millions of pounds are paid to crass despotic theocracies to release hostages – money that will fund the development of nuclear programmes that those state-agents of god intend to deploy for the obliteration of neighbouring countries and their cultures. • A high ranking female politician declines the invitation to define what a woman is, for fear of “being dragged down a rabbit hole”. • Police and local government services turn a blind eye to industrial scale sexual abuse of vulnerable young girls to avoid stirring racial tensions. • It is decreed that if we can’t buy our oil from a thief we may as well buy it from a murderer as pumping our own plentiful supplies locally may offend environmentalists. • Ad infinitum. The country I live in used to be called England. Last night I read her the last rights, sang her this little poem I made up for her and cradled her as she slipped fitfully away. I didn’t bother to mark the grave. ___________________________________________________________________ The Cold Blooded Murder Of Albion Whisper, sweet love, Did you feel any hurt, As they hacked at your heart With their blunt knives of dirt? Love of my life! Did you feel any pain? As they raised up their rocks To stone your brain. The true paragon of fair Balanced and just. Slain by dogmas of air Lunatic liberal lust. I’ll lullaby your dead heart That pulmonary shocks can’t restart We’re history consigned, To bedlam resigned. But I’d rather rot dead Than wake in a contemporary bed Of moral principle smoothies In a world that eschews me. Hush, don’t make a fuss, there’s no need to discuss Spinning whirlpools of statuesque dust All relics of pride, I’ve laid delicately aside In simple disgust. Comment by Phil McWalter Back again as this becomes more and more cliff edge pertinent… I could not agree more with this excellently written and performed piece. 2023-06-11T19:55:06Z Comment by Daniels & Durgy Powerful and so bitterly/sadly true. An epic, though tragic revelation in song, so deeply decried with words that shower down like tears. Durge 2023-04-03T19:45:37Z Comment by Bruce Avery Oh Peter I hear and ache with you as you lament the passing of your cherished Jerusalem, and I fully excuse you. It’s sad, but I think it’s so. I look from afar, but I say as goes (went) Europe, so now goes England. Yes some, even on these pages, recite concern, but I just don’t see enough of a rebellious spirit stirring in your parts. We’ve got the passion here, and it’s strong, but so feared & hated that eventual disruption is inevitable. 2022-06-14T20:47:08Z Comment by 𝐹𝓇𝒶𝓃𝓀 𝑀𝑒𝒽𝓁 What a deep humility I feel in the face of this song. I think I need to let it sink in. So beautiful...so.....wonderful..... 2022-05-29T16:19:40Z Comment by spanishlilies Drawn here by the sequel, a beautiful lament for a country that never really existed. 2022-05-22T08:55:37Z Comment by Chuck Aaron Sure enjoyed this tune and your comments-- sad state of affairs it seems !! 2022-05-07T22:22:40Z Comment by chivicke Great song !!! 2022-04-29T22:48:44Z Comment by Annie Smart Lovely guitar, performance and wonderful lyrics. 😊🎶 2022-04-14T18:43:43Z Comment by Midisound Another awesome composition. What a wonderful and fucked up (excuse me) intelligent criticism full of the feeling that people with a certain intelligence suffer and what a sad mirror where my country is also reflected. Yes Peter, my country too... 2022-04-14T15:34:48Z Comment by Brian Peters Love your voice on this Peter...somewhere between calm reflection and spitting/striking out...great song title too!!! 2022-04-13T17:19:30Z Comment by 1234567890 @user-138663860: Hey Sandy thank you for dropping by - and yes - if we think it's bad now we need to fear for future generations who will live in a world where the ultimate democratic freedom has become the ultimate cultural oppression - where everyone has the right to everything, except to express an opinion - because that may offend someone else's "rights". Where liberal democracy means exactly the same thing as state sponsored dictatorial one-party terror. God help us. 2022-04-07T21:54:26Z Comment by DavidHutton Great lyrics and I love the rant! The performance is wonderful. The guitar (what is it) sounds lush (I am from Bristol) and the vocals offer such emotion. Though I love England, our whole history is stained and would find it hard to decide when it died. Though I completely agree and can't take the pointless politics of everything. I counter it by sticking my head in the sand:) 2022-04-07T13:03:10Z Comment by No killie fish Another beautifully crafted song Peter we need voices to speak out. Great song Johnny 2022-04-06T08:09:02Z Comment by Tony's Lyrics Sad and beautiful at the same time! 2022-04-03T22:52:31Z Comment by oddrun eikli such a sad and heartbreaking song.

The sadness is palpable. 2022-03-21T12:27:43Z Comment by PJ Project Great song 2022-03-21T10:25:25Z Comment by Pa' Shot The Canary great track mate, always a pleasure to hear your songs and read the track descriptions. 2022-03-21T10:04:09Z Comment by Lorenzo Quant ‘Whirlpools of statuesque dust’ . . potent and very poetic lyrics. 2022-03-21T09:26:12Z Comment by Falsestart Lovely song.
