I know it’s always been
Such a precarious time
To Be alive
Oh but tonight
It’s So Acute
I keep counting up the signals that I’m missing
All around me something sinister amassing
Dark water underneath all of the bridges
The future blurring out along the edges
I know it’s always been
such a precarious time
to be alive
oh but tonight
It’s so acute.
Oh the shadows fall around us like a curtain
A malevolent old chemistry returning
white supremacy. that enemy, is surging
Everywhere the same few words, like crosses, burning
“I should be able to wake up from this
I should be able to wake up from this
I should be able to wake up from this
But I’m not able to wake up from this”
I should be able to wake up from this
I should be able to wake up from this
I should be able to wake up from this
But I don’t know how to wake up from this”
