Nevermore was written toward the beginning of the lockdown. It’s based on Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “The Raven.”
In Poe’s poem it’s the Raven who utters the word “Nevermore.” In my version I had an image of a cracked head of a statue akin to the remnant of The Statue of Liberty in the final scene of the 1968 film “Planet of the Apes.”
If you go to the Soundcloud song page here,
you’ll see an original illustration by an artist I hired on fiverr to do the song cover. The statue is that of Dr. Jonas Salk holding a tablet that reads “germ theory.”
Why Jonas Salk? Because the polio vaccine is always held up as “proof” that vaccines work, and that mainstream “science” is responsible for the eradication of epidemics such as polio.
In my view these beliefs in the efficacy of modern medicine are the result of years of propaganda, designed to hide the myriad of explanations (different forms of environmental poisoning) as the true cause of disease.
The lockdowns of course were designed to create the illusion of a public health emergency. What better symbol could there be--the “shattered visage, cracked and worn,” the inventor of a “miracle cure” that never cured anything--to describe the impetus for the illusory belief in an invisible monster?
The lyrics take us back to a time of great despair—a feeling that still echoes through the consciousness of all those who have awakened to the tyranny we continue to experience every day.
Below are the lyrics to Nevermore.
Nevermore
(1) In the harbor we can see
A statue shorn of dignity
We curse the day that you were born
A shattered visage, cracked and worn
Now it’s time you stand accused
It’s the fear that grips the multitudes
The fear that’s seen on every face
You hold us down, within our place
Now we stand with tears of rage
Stuck inside the gilded cage
Could it be an awful dream?
A world gone mad—this quarantine
Our isolation’s in your name
The days they pass, they’re all the same
All the love that you abhor
Lost forever, nevermore
(2) The color’s gone, the world’s turned gray
The rules have changed, we must obey
No one near for us to greet
A silent portal, an empty street
A brave new world no accident
The church is empty, none repent
Just like 1984
Our love has vanished—nevermore
As you laugh within your lair
There’s no rebellion in the air
No one protests, not one fight
While we’re stripped of all our rights
The Statue smiles within the gloom
We stand back and start to fume
With our love, they’ve shut the door
The statue whispers, “Nevermore”
Chorus: You claimed that you had found the gold
We believed the tales you told
A pretty picture you did paint
We raised you up, called you a saint
The lighthouse blasts its steady beams
And all your gold ‘s not what it seems
Now for us there’s more in store
A life together nevermore!
(3) So many questions never asked
Put it on: the filthy mask
The air is free, we still can’t breathe
A world shut down—no time to grieve
The fetid swamp where you preside
A lifeless statue—you’re our guide
Save us now with threats of doom
While we remain in lonely rooms
Long ago a bold decree
A monster lives that we can’t see
So very small there is no sign
Here it lives, this Frankenstein
As we watch the dark parade
Invisible we’re still afraid
Your contagion--mighty lore
Where’s our courage? Nevermore!
Bridge: Tip the hour glass and watch the sand course
The fleeting hours those we can’t ignore
Wary of the Statue and his dark force
Shall all our joyful days be nevermore?
Instrumental
(4) The statue claims there’s still much fun
But no embrace so now we’re done
Wounded so, our mouths agape
We hear the words—there’s no escape
“You’re dangerous, why can’t you see?”
Like Typhoid Mary—never free
“Shelter wisely stay indoors”
Quoth the statue, nevermore
Chorus: You claimed that you had found the gold
We believed the tales you told
A pretty picture you did paint
We raised you up, called you a saint
The lighthouse blasts its steady beams
And all your gold ‘s not what it seems
Now for us there’s more in store
A life together nevermore!
(5) Now get it over very quick
Your needle waits, our arms to prick
A rotting corpse now washed ashore
Still no one saved, nor been restored
We’ve gone too far, we’re in too deep
Our isolation’s now complete
Free at last within our core
Quoth the Statue: Nevermore!

Yes, yes, yes. It is very reassuring to know that many others, besides yours truly know that CONvid19 was a HOAX.
Still yet I wonder how many Americans will fall for the upcoming "DISEASE X" fraud ?!?!?!?!?
I like how you think! Nevermore and leave the children alone!!!
