Description
I started this after the 7/7/05 bombings in London but all I had was the chorus of "Bitter Season". It wasn't until a guy in Baltimore gave me some lyrics a year later that it all started to come together. This was originally recorded on a Zoom hard disk recorder and I remixed it in GB.
I sang and played all the instruments. No loops (except drums) were harmed in the making of this song :)

Lyrics
Bitter Season © The Cracks / Dick Langford 2006
Love lost and hearts grow weak
Lives tossed, take the chaff from the wheat
Hopes fade as the bodies break
Truth greys, it's the game that we play
In this bitter season - dreams wither on the vine
Bitter season - There's fire in the sky
Bitter season - We got to find a better reason to die
Hatred, I hear it all around
Hatred, I hate that bloody sound
Bones crack and the blood will run
Skewed facts seem to block out the sun
Sweet lies whispered by the crass
Soft flesh ripped by shattered glass
In this bitter season - God's not on any side
Bitter season - the devil's on the rise
Bitter season - we've got to find a better reason to die
Tears fall but the land is parched
Men crawl while the armies march
Don't try 'cos you can't pretend
There is something left that we can defend
In this bitter season - pity souls that cry
Bitter season - let history decide
Bitter season - we've got to find a better reason to die

Love lost and hearts grow weak
Lives tossed, take the chaff from the wheat
Hopes fade as the bodies break
Truth greys, it's the game that we play
In this bitter season - dreams wither on the vine
Bitter season - There's fire in the sky
Bitter season - We got to find a better reason to die
Hatred, I hear it all around
Hatred, I hate that bloody sound
Bones crack and the blood will run
Skewed facts seem to block out the sun
Sweet lies whispered by the crass
Soft flesh ripped by shattered glass
In this bitter season - God's not on any side
Bitter season - the devil's on the rise
Bitter season - we've got to find a better reason to die
Tears fall but the land is parched
Men crawl while the armies march
Don't try 'cos you can't pretend
There is something left that we can defend
In this bitter season - pity souls that cry
Bitter season - let history decide
Bitter season - we've got to find a better reason to die

Hi Dick
I like this.
As we know there has always been hatred in the world, but the darkness will never put out the light.
Nice one!
Steve
