Strange Time

If God exists
It seems the world is really ending
The sky is red with flame
And now there is a plague
I'm still completely stunned
When you said this year would be different
I should have asked
You what that meant

Somehow the days dripped into weeks
Slipped into seasons
But in here it's like it's twilight
All the time
Now that the city
Is oh so quiet
And the sirens fill the air
With a bitter cry

It's a Strange Time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time

Now I'm locked down in my home
Just scrolling on my phone
I'm trying to fathom the tragedy
Now and hereafter
Everybody's been saying
How they need to take a break
We got more than we bargained for
This time

It's a Strange Time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
It ain't play time

Locked down in my home
Practicing the saxophone
The neighbours ain't happy
But then again
Who's really happy?
Now's the time to do all the things
That you've been putting off
Like pray to your maker
That everything will be alright

It is peaceful
And uneasy in the evening
I lean out my window sill
And sip my glass of wine
Now all of the towns and the cities
Are oh so quiet
Can you feel us all looking up
At that distant sky?

In a Strange Time
Strange time
Strange time
Strange time
It ain't play time
