about

quarantine blues :( missing my friends

lyrics

I soak up sunlight at 2pm on Tuesdays
And I’m striking matches to try to keep my mind at bay
I’m stuck on School St just behind the evergreen
If you could hear me I could be your everything

We got a snow storm and the next day it was spring again
I stood at the turnstile smiling every now and then
I don’t want money, it’s paper I can do without
I just want you near me before I start to breakdown

I see their faces only through computer screens
And I’m sick of time zones and poorly charged AI machines
The stores are empty and I feel like drinking
But I don’t like alcohol, it feeds overthinking

I want you to send your location
I could use a vacation
I would drive 600 miles
To escape isolation

I’m getting tired of popsicles and bookshelves
Reminds me of when Bowie died and we all kept to ourselves
I’m missing you more than I want to

I’m still on School St just behind the evergreen
If you can hear me I wanna be your everything
