Shambhala Music and Lyrics

Music by The Truthsayers

Lyrics by L. M. McDermott
Music by Baylor Maggenti

When there’s no rhyme or reason
And nothing makes much sense,
When there is no cause and effect
In our experience,

When we can’t understand
Why people do what they do,
When there’s no way to know
What’s right and what’s true.

When there’s chaos and confusion
And no way to figure it out,
When everything is too complex
To know what it’s all about,

We make up our own stories
Where reality plays no role.
We spin mindless fantasies
With no substance or soul.

But, we don’t have to lose ourselves
In all this mindless chatter.
We don’t have to lose ourselves,
Never knowing what’s the matter.

Chorus

Head straight for the Light.
See your way through.
Create peace and order,
And let sanity rule.
Trust your heart and mind
To think things through.
Create peace and order,
And let sanity rule.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 2

So when things get crazy,
And nothing makes much sense,
Don’t give up the fight,
Don’t cling to nonsense.

Dig down a little deeper,
Down into your soul,
See right through the smoke
And the blinding turmoil.

Repeat Chorus Twice

Repeat Verse 2
