lyrics

This Is Now (words & music by Craig Haller)

Wakey wakey, time to break the spell of solitude
You’ve been down so long the song is over, time to start anew

You can’t hold it back the flood is coming
To wash away the sands of time
You better learn to swim and keep on moving
You’re riding on a rising tide

It’s all alright - it’s all alright now

Nothing brings us closer than a blow of tragedy
The plan is fucked, we’re stuck, collapsed, calamity

We can rise above with love and kindness
And help each other off the ground
We need to learn to see without the blinders
What goes around comes around

It’s all alright - it’s all alright now
It’s all alright - it’s all alright
That was then, but this is now

Wakey wake, your brain is buzzing like a bumblebee
No one needs another comatose commodity

Don’t let your failures go to waste
Face the fears that bring you down
Release the tension that’s been mounting
It’s all gonna come back around

It’s all alright - it’s all alright now
It’s all alright - it’s all alright
That was then, but this is now

about

Craig Haller Nashville, Tennessee

Craig Haller was born with a chip on his shoulder and a song in his heart. His music is the byproduct of many hours spent in obsessive contemplation. With a flair for memorable melodies and an overabundance of poetic license, he happily casts himself as lord of his own creative landscape—a land of genre fluidity, appetizing aural atmospheres, and turns of phrase that refuse to be pinned down. ... more
