Sunshine Away (Single)

You'd always say
"Don't take my sunshine away".
I know you didn't mean it,
But in a way you always did.
And on this day
You took my sunshine away.
I know you didn't mean it,
But in a way you always did.
So when they say
You won't be okay,
You know; I'm not so sure that I will.
You scared us all to death
When you took that second fall.
They said there's nothing left,
But that wasn't worst of all.
They couldn't stop the bleeding,
But that's not what's here at fault.
You're heart is in there beating
But the blood is cutting off.
So when they say
You won't be okay,
You know; I'm not so sure that I will.
You'd always say,
"Don't take my sunshine away".

Quarantine

I watched as night time
Turned into daylight
Then turned to night time again.
Fuck, I just stopped shivering.
The roads;
Forgotten headstones
Waiting to rise from the dead.
I feel you all shivering.
The echoes
Of friends and neighours
All sound like strangers.
What the fuck is "Social Distancing"?
I'm staring off
To a great beyond
Where finally
A cure will come
And render me
Useless from
Quarantine, I'm going numb.
'This is a Public Service Announcement.
People of the Greatest Show On Earth;
There is no reason for panic. There is no risk.
I've read the emails, I've heard the warnings..
But these alarmists don't have my superior instincts.
I can pilot this plane without their instruments
Because I know, When it gets a little warmer,
It miraculously goes away.'
We're struggling.
Life's hard enough.
Will we be okay?
