about

In 2003 the Iraq war was going on, when we recorded This song. Against the rhetoric of war we set our "Love Will Prevail". And it did.

lyrics

Hear somebody crying all through the night
Hungry, bruised and deeply hurt inside.
Another hundred million pillows soaked with tears tonight
And you know it’s just like any other night.
Well, as I light another cigarette and while I’m trying a little harder to forget
I feel like I am drowning in the sea, everything just seams to vanish around me .

But with every breath life says love will prevail, love will prevail.
In the end there’ll be a light. And Love will prevail, love will prevail.

Humiliations everywhere around I see
Tired eyes waiting for the day they may see.
Loss and failure, broken dreams, not knowing were to start
Hungry mouth and a very hungry heart.
Every guiding light turns out to be a will-o’-the-wisp
And every smile turns out to be
Someone biting his teeth in anger and in hate
Every guiding light turns out to be a will-o’-the-wisp.

But with every breath life says love will prevail, love will prevail.
In the end there’ll be a light. And Love will prevail, love will prevail.

Let us remember all the things we did last summer
Let us remember our love so sublime.
Let us remember all the things we had in common,
Let us remember one more time.

But with every breath life says love will prevail, love will prevail.
In the end there’ll be a light. And Love will prevail, love will prevail.

The Laughing Man Wuppertal, Germany

THE LAUGHING MAN are a Wuppertal (Germany) based band who are always in search of the perfect pop song with sometimes deconstructed lyrics.

The band first met in 2003, made three mostly home-recorded albums, yet and is very much influenced by British, Australian and New Zealand indie music of the 1980s and 90s.
THE LAUGHING MAN were named after Jerome D. Salinger’s Short Story of the same name. ... more
