Rowhouse fillet [Baltimore]. There's  something poignant about seeing the exposed rooms and stairs of a tear down home. It's a bit like finding a stranger's family photos in the street.: photo by Andrew Murr, 8 February 2017

Redacted: A Man Needs to be Told.

Charlatans UK: A Man Needs To Be Told (full)

A man needs to be told there is a war going on
There is a world going on
There is a world going on
A man needs to be told to look in to the light
He will get lost in the day
He will get lost in the night
A man needs to be told

A young boy once told me
I will be an old man and I am only 15
It wasn't part of the plan
It wasn't part of the dream
Ever wonder how much the man who wrote White Christmas made?
How evolution began?
The revolution was fake
A man needs to be told

A man needs to be told there is a war going on
There is a war going on
There is a war going on
A man needs to be told there is a truth in his eye
There is a rest in the dawn
There is a point to his life
A man needs to be told!
