It's title: On The Beach.

Lyrics
- from the official live news page -
ON THE BEACH (2020)
in the fever dreams of alice I have seen the walking dead
I have been there at the border whither malice goons are led
I have seen them dig their boonies where the ignorants are bred
do them in the head
we are rievers by conviction, we're believers in the bus
we will steal what we cannot buy when all is stole from us
we are whole in our fracture, we are even in our each
when dog eat dog we're honoured on the beach
a thousand thousand souls have never seen the sea
you'll never hurt more as damnation's hi-viz entity
transaction's tabard's not a thing to keep you keep afloat
the chevaliers are on a boat
it's not your boat
all states have a border
that's the reason
that's the order
inside and outside, on the beach
we're parked and yet we're not
we're on the sand
this can go two ways
understand
