Drift like snow Swim through gold Walk on fire Heart’s desire Trails to burn Twist and turn Miles to go On I flow Oh save me No, don’t break me Catch my world falling down Blazing sun Curse undone See the spell I’ve become Sail high seas Come to me Dive through dreams Turn the key Oh save me No, don’t break me Catch my world falling down Oh save me No, don’t break me Catch my world falling down

The rain The skies The storm in my eyes No tears No cries No cloud in my mind Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Dare To fall Rise to the call Fade To grey Shine through the day Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Take Me down To where I am found A smile So rare A sign you are there Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa It finally rained a diamond perfectly set in dirt Reflecting the filth speckled clouds that snuffed out the sun Dimmed the sparkle I’d become Melted mirror ball Spreading into crisp bags and crushed cans of coke A flattened continuation of no hope Glossy rabbit hole Waiting for Alice to peer through its illusion broken by a small yellow boot and the realisation that you can’t walk on cloud 9 Anymore than there is a heaven The rain The skies The storm in my eyes X 8 The rain The skies The storm in my eyes The rain The skies The storm in my eyes

Break free from the sound Of your own voice Before you are drowned You have no choices Fly round with me now You have no choices Fly round with me now I can burn the town Kiss the ground It don’t make me better Laugh and cry Live and die Run wild to-the-bone Sitting here Drinking tears Stars salt the night The time is near Feel the fear Blackbird eats the light I found my way through the sound To a voice underground Black bird eats the light I can burn the town Kiss the ground It don’t make me better Laugh and cry Live and die Run wild to-the-bone x2 Ahhhhh x4 Break free from the sound Of your own voice Before you are drowned I can burn the town Kiss the ground It don’t make me better Laugh and cry Live and die Run wild to-the-bone Sitting here Drinking tears Stars salt the night The time is near Feel the fear Blackbird eats the light Ahhhh x 4 I found my way through the sound To a voice underground Black bird eats the light x 10

I’ve lived a live wire ricocheted, swayed to a snake juicing whole cloves, whole cities squeezed to their unholy waters — but the street lights remain glow-spot the stains of monuments swallowed to a pulp, paper-machéd to an egg that will never crack or boil hard any truth Show me your sunny side And I will show you my shell

about

World Falling Down represents a reaction to a changing world. Through our music, videos and Sujatha Menon’s words, our aim is to create an alternative space in which to reflect on the social - political upheaval caused by the personal and collective challenges that face us today.

This project is ongoing and multi-faceted, linking together artists through moving image, music, and poetry. Satsangi are collaborating with Søjus1 and vocalist Shanade Morrow.

We have a long established creative relationship with video artist Paul Windridge with our work being shown on MTV, at international film festivals, on BBC “Big Screens” throughout the UK, and featured in Rolling Stone Magazine.

The music, lyrics and imagery reflect the uncertain times we are living through in what is being termed the ‘post-truth ’ age, with social conflict and disputation spreading across many aspects of life, including the effects on individuals and communities of the pandemic, the effects and pressures brought about by the climate change emergency, and the emergence of extreme political attitudes, such as the Far Right in the United Kingdom and in Europe.
