    CARRY ME lyrics
    When you're standing by the roadside
    And it's a long way to go
    Ah, to carry me
    to carry me, carry me, carry me, friend
    Oh, to carry me
    Together in this mad land
    far from truest of hands
    well I'll carry you
    if you'll carry me, carry me, carry me, friend
    Oh, carry me
    And we'll petrol Bomb the state
    we'll blow away the hate
    But we'll do it in our minds
    If we can take the time
    we'll build ourselves a road
    from what we know
    each take our part
    and now's the time to start
    Oh yea take
    Oh it must be
    Oh it must be
    Oh it must be
    But Jane's taking Heroin
    and Paul is getting pissed
    Steve is getting stoned
    to fucked to fight
    Sarah's on the Acid
    and Sean has blown his mind
    someone's busy hiding
    to fucked to fight
    Yea, Some have found religion
    and some have run away
    and some they formed a party
    to find a way
    Yea, some joined the system
    some just look away
    and some just bite their backsides
    to find a way
    And there is a way ...
    Yes, there is a way ...
    Yes, there is a way ...
    When you're standing by the roadside
    and it's a long way to go
    Well I'll carry you
    if you'll carry me, carry me, carry me, friend
    well I'll carry you

    Definitely a song for all the black sheep of the family and old souls liberation is self realisation letting go of the illusions of mind and society simply drop everything and be as you are let go of personal identity ego persona know thy true state of being this is peace this is liberation peace is not external its inward stop giving attention to society to thoughts it's a very simple thing ,obviously you can still do all tasks that need to be done but remain in self in the ever present timeless now life becomes more harmonious when stillness emptiness is known ,namaste ❤️ let there be peace let there be love for all life universal ❤️ om 🕉 shanti shanti shanti if you want to know your true nature look up Sri ramana maharshi, Sri nisagadatta maharaj, on you tube totally free no techniques no imagination no spiritual gymnastics just be they only point to the absolute

    Loving abroad from the UK for 8 years now. Memories are so mixed. The feelings of positive and negative are so extreme. It’s quite tricky to summarise, it’s not nationalism but there is so much to miss, and so much to get away from.
    Back in the day, must be 10 years ago, I watched a band play this live on a spring afternoon in Bath’s cobbled streets, having a beer and soaking up the atmosphere. It’s shit like this we miss, memories buried but not forgotten.

      I understand this entirely. When you leave England for any significant amount of time (I lived in India for five years) you get an entirely different perspective. I was homesick as hell while living in a tropical paradise! You wake up quickly when abroad though as you are not bombarded with BBC or TV in general. I still don't own a TV to this day x

      So true. I've been in Italy for 8 years. Never think it's all pizza and ice cream (although both are delicious!). Again, I couldn't be less nationalistic. There's something about the Levellers that is, essentially, British. Oh England My Home...

      the record is slightly pitch shifted, probably because the band wanted to change the tempo slightly post recording, so that is why you can't find a pitch centre by trying to play with the recording. The piece is composed in A minor if that helps.
