Vox Momenti: Where Have All Our Allies Gone?
By Vox Momenti | 17 May, 2026

How did it come about that the things that once made the United States great appear to be quietly disappearing at an alarming rate?

Where have all the workers gone, without farewell? Where have all the workers gone, without goodbye? 

Where have all the workers gone — Taken from the fields they'd sown. 

When will we ever learn? When will we ever learn?

[Verse 2 - add harmony vocals] 

Where have all our allies gone, without farewell? Where have all our allies gone, without goodbye? 

Where have all our allies gone — Left to stand out in the cold alone. 

How could this come about?  How could this come about?

[Verse 3 - bass enters] 

Where have all the windmills gone, without farewell? Where have all the windmills gone, without goodbye? 

Where have all the windmills gone — Shuttered down before they'd grown. 

WHow could this come about?  How could this come about?

[Verse 4 - full band, brushed drums] 

Where has all the sunlight gone, without farewell? Where has all the sunlight gone, without goodbye? 

Where has all the sunlight gone — Solar panels left to moan. 

How could this come about?  How could this come about?

[Verse 5 - organ swell] 

Where have all the aid ships gone, without farewell? Where have all the aid ships gone, without goodbye? 

Where have all the aid ships gone — Children hungry, left alone. 

How could this come about?  How could this come about?

[Verse 6 - three-part harmony, building] 

Where have all the free minds gone, without farewell? Where have all the free minds gone, without goodbye? 

Where have all the free minds gone — Scholars silenced, seeds unsown. 

How could this come about?  How could this come about?

[Final Verse - full choir, slow down, heavy] 

Where have all our futures gone, without farewell? Where have all our futures gone, without goodbye? 

Where have all our futures gone — Gone to fear and pride and stone. 

How could this come about?  How could this come about?

[Outro - acoustic guitar returns, fade
