lyrics

Long ago and far away out in space
There was a planet of people whose lives were quickly erased
Now, I can't wrap my head around what it means
To have the world that you're from reduced to rocks and debris

CHORUS
They say that Alderaan was beautiful
I'm certain that it was
They valued poetry and art
And education was a must
Don't bother looking for this planet
It has been turned to dust
Men blew it up
Absolute power corrupts

They pushed the buttons, pulled the lever and then
Millions of voices cried out, were never heard from again
The hands responsible can't wash off the blood
It's a reminder of the evil that we're capable of

(Repeat Chorus)

Men with foes
Set an example for all those who would oppose
And that's why
Innocent people by the millions had to die

Glenn Case Spokane, Washington

I write music.

I listen to music.

I genuinely just love music.

I have a song available in "Rock Band" and that makes me smile.

Yeah, I'm the guy who did the soundtrack for "The New Adventures of Captain S".

I probably release too many albums, but I do attempt to find a good balance between quality and quantity.

Thank you. ... more
