Distant

Watch what you touch watch where you sneeze watch
Who you greet did you watch the TV?
New contagious disease that has just hit the streets
So you'd better step back at least six feet
Quarantined inside our homes glued to feeds all on our phones
The great unknown here face to face as sickness spreads the markets tank
Distance our new social norm too scared to step foot from our home
For if we roam then thou are prone to catch a cold then die alone
So shalom go atone for all your sins then pray for hope
You never know when you might leave the globe so wash with extra soap
Holy whoa moly smokes same routine with different strokes so
Who's to blame for dying folks? I heard some say its all a hoax
Kill the jokes it's time to pray the end is nigh or so they say
Well if it is might I request we show what's left of life respect?
Disinfect all the hatred pull the plug and disconnect
Seems like we can only see the positive in retrospect
Incorrect how we choose to feel check your symptoms
I think I'm fucking sick of everything keep your distance

In the distance from all of
The people that I love because I don't know where they are
They all must think that I'm a shmuck
I stay distant I just feel like no one gets me
I'd much rather sit alone then leave the conversation empty
I am distant that is just the way I am because I've been through a whole lot
And you just would not understand why I'm distant I'm just
Way too far away therefore I hide under this mask in hopes
That you won't notice how I've changed

Isolation hits a little different when you're lonesome
When awoken to the trauma that has kept the mental broken
I'm an outspoken introvert shy high and sleep-deprived
Son of a mortician different outlook on death and life
Stuck inside for several weeks obsessing over rhymes and beats
The word on streets is that I'm doing great yay hooray for me
Starving artist late on rent too bad that clout cant clear my debt but
Even if it could I bet it still would barely make a dent
Stoked to book that summer tour but not this year nope not no more
They closed the door on every venue no groups of ten or more
One things for sure is that we're doomed all year
Maybe I'll just drop another album no one hears
While the world is on fire you can find me here
In a puddle of my sorrow sipping lukewarm beer
I am selfish indignant zealous and indifferent
If there's anyone prepared for this it's me
I'm so distant

In the distance from all of
The people that I love because I don't know where they are
They all must think that I'm a shmuck
I stay distant I just feel like no one gets me
I'd much rather sit alone then leave the conversation empty
I am distant that is just the way I am because I've been through a whole lot
And you just would not understand why I'm distant I'm just
Way too far away therefore I hide under this mask in hopes
That you won't notice I'm insane
