Musical Worldview: Jeff Tobias, "Our Very Recent Past"

“By the time they figured out who the real fascists were it was too late
All the ink had long since dried and all the trains had long since left the station

Who is above loving a face they don't yet recognize

Weep to think what could have been, but I guess that could be said about anytime
Still it seems decisive things could've moved the needle; maybe not
If only something from our very recent past could act as a warning - give us some vision - but our vision's left wanting
But never again doesn't mean anything if it never stopped happening

Who is above loving a face they don't yet recognize
Give up some small sense of yourself and help smash the hateful tide”
