[Talking]
This is a tiny litt--this is a quiet song.
Um, I think it's about not knowing when to stop.
I think the world is full of it. I think it's a
strange world. It's a strange world when we left,
y'all. When we left here last time, we were
playing in this building right before the
pandemic, and, uh, it was the night that all that
crazy violence happened in Paris. And then you
think that--always think, you know, I don't know
why we think that people are gonna get better.
But it feels like so often we just get--trying to
get worse and worse and worse. And I just, so, I
just want to say, because I hear so many Irish
voices talking about what's happening in the world
and standing up for people that can't stand up for
themselves. And even if the leaders in America,
who should be ashamed of themselves, and the
leaders amongst the world that should be ashamed
of ours--uh, that should be themselves. And even
if you think that they're not hearing all these
Irish voices, I think you can look again and know
that everybody sees how brave and how powerful you
all are. Thank you so much. And maybe, maybe not
too long from now we'll, uh, we'll wake up and
maybe they'll be rebuilding Gaza. But right now
there should be a ceasefire, and a ceasefire
permanently. 'Cause anybody who thinks killing a
child is gonna make them safer has lost their
mind.
Looking for a Vein
main lyrics
I'm down in this hole again
trying to find a vein or something
hammering these walls and hoping
hoping to find my way through

What if I strike it
rich as I want to be?
will it set me free
or be just another hole to dig?

I can't give up on this
what am I supposed to do?
hammering these walls down here
trying to find a way out

But what if I strike it
rich as I want to be?
would it set me free
or be just another hole to dig?
what will it mean?
what will it mean?
what will it mean?
what does it matter?

But I can't give up on this
always trying to break on through
this air is choking me
but hammering's all I know to do

Do you remember
when all this digging began?
I can't stop looking
but what am I looking at?
what will it mean?
what will it mean?
what will it mean?
what does it matter?

Maybe I'll find a vein
hammering these walls and hoping
