Liner Notes

Another song!

Lyrics

There’s a traitor among us, hiding in plain sight, A shadow in the daylight, a whisper in the night. They wear a mask of friendship, but their heart is cold as stone, And the seeds of doubt they’ve planted have quietly grown

There’s a traitor among us, we don’t know their name
Undercover assassin, hard to know their game
They appear to be normal, fitting in with the rest
But something isn’t right here, I just don’t know I’ll never guess

There’s a traitor among us
Who will be revealed
There’s a traitor among us
Who cannot stay concealed

There’s a traitor among us, hiding from the light
A shadow in the nighttime, something isn’t right
They wear a cloak of confidence, but they will be unmasked
We will find the traitor, they will be brought to task

That’s a kick in’ chorus. Great melody.
The driving rhythm drew me in . I really like the juxtaposition of daylight and nighttime in the first and verses. Coolio!

How completely appropriate for this time and age we live in. Love your voice and playing. This song has inspired me to do something tangentially related...
