I Don't Know

I woke up Monday and I didn't check the news
Hardly seems to matter anymore
I fall so easily into the gloom and doom
My back and shoulders feeling sore
I know that that's just what they want
They jibe and bully, scream and taunt
But what am I supposed to do?

Hey I don't know
I keep on walking in the sun trying to unfurl
How to hold the deep injustice in this world
Hey I don't know
Hey I don't know

I go out wandering in the woods to breathe the air
The eucalyptus dropping leaves
I lay beside an oak and catch it in my stare
I wonder if a forest grieves
For what it feels is yet to come
The planet warming in the sun
And what is there for it to do?

Hey I don't know
I keep on walking in the sun trying to unfurl
How to hold the deep injustice in this world
Hey I don't know
Hey I don't know

And there's nobody on the way to save us
Yeah there's nobody on the way

I watch the evening gather gold into the trees
The clouds turn purple, red, and pink
I know the colors come from ashes on the breeze
But it's still beautiful, I think
I'm gonna keep on making jokes
I'm gonna march with other folks
And try to trust that we'll get through
I guess that's all that we can do

Hey I don't know
I keep on walking in the sun trying to unfurl
How to hold the deep injustice in this world
Hey I don't know
Hey I don't know
