lyrics

Day Thirteen
Still inside
TV says that
This is life
Till June?
Crisis has me waking up at noon Sleep through my classes Camera off if its on zoom
Cause I’m not taking chances
Of forgetting I’m on video
Don't want the class to catch me dancing Cause I just can’t sit still no more
They say its one month but it could be four These walls are all I see
Lock the door and break the key
As long as I can breathe
I’ll stay inside with only me but
My apartment’s driving my crazy
It’s hard to stay sane when hope’s gone It’s gone
It’s gone away
The same sweater for thirteen days Hope’s gone
It’s gone
It’s gone away
I wonder how long I’ll wait
Before the isolation drives me insane
I wonder how long I’ll stay When hope’s gone
It’s gone
It’s gone away
In the city
You never really thought you could die Suffocating
With only strangers in sight
Three months later and I’m still stuck inside this place Everyone is back out living but still I hesitate
Cuz I see the numbers rising up everyday
And I won’t close my eyes and pretend it’s all ok
It just doesn't work that way Political actors
Keep enhancing disasters By downplaying factors With propaganda
To distract
From their powerful backers
Lately I feel like when I scream into the void
Its the only place left that my voice doesn't get destroyed
My apartment’s driving my crazy
It’s hard to stay sane when hope’s gone It’s gone
It’s gone away
The same sweater for thirteen days Hope’s gone
It’s gone
It’s gone away

And I wonder how long I’ll wait Before the isolation drives me insane And I wonder how long I’ll stay When hope’s gone
It’s gone
It’s gone away
In the city
You never really thought you could die Suffocating
With only strangers in sight
In the city
You never really thought you could die Suffocating
With only strangers in sight
