Quarantine

I've never been outside
I've never seen the light
As long as I'm alright
I feel like it's okay
I've had to hide away
And never show my face
No need to rue the day

Living in a bubble
Away from all the trouble
Away from all the politics and madness in the world
Can they keep me safe here
Can they keep away the fear
Of what the future holds

When it's over, when I break away
Never coming back to where I stayed
I miss the simple silence in between
Why are all our efforts overdue
Would've been prepared if I were you
Then we'd never have to quarantine
Quarantine

Social distancing
We live six feet apart
You're always in my heart
But now we're far away
Everyone I see
On the other side of a screen
It makes me want to scream

I know that this is safer
Away from all the danger
But still, I want to hold you as I did before today
Can I keep from crying
When everyone is dying
From a threat that lives unseen

When it's over, when I break away
Never coming back to where I stayed
I miss the simple silence in between
Why are all our efforts overdue
Would've been prepared if I were you
Then we'd never have to quarantine
Quarantine
