Can you tell that there's a pandemic going on? Let's talk about it.

lyrics

I wake up every morning
I go to sleep at night
I wake up just to see again
How the world has gone to hell
I stay inside my bedroom
Can’t let the virus in
Why do I even bother
If I’ve already made my cell

I’m just waiting for the
Chemicals (if I go out)
Something in the water
Won’t taste right (if I go out)
These walls all start to seem
Identical (if I go out)
I won’t last long if I can't
Hold on tight, if I go out

Promise me I
Won’t regret a thing
Promise me your kindness and your
Care instead of
All the plagues of malice
Ignorance or lies, cause
Right now it won’t change a single thing
If I just stay in bed

If I go out
If I just stay in bed
If I go out
If I just stay in bed

No use in complications
No need for pretty lies
No need to double-check your hands
If they’re already sterilized
I’ve seen the root of madness
Fed from a liquid wealth
Apocalyptic warnings
But this time it ain’t 2012

I’m just hoping for a
Miracle (if I go out)
Something in the water
Won’t taste right (if I go out)
Waiting for a cure that’s
Medical (if I go out)
We won’t last long if we don’t
Win this fight, if I go out

Promise me I
Won’t regret a thing
Promise me your kindness and your
Care instead of
All the plagues of malice
Ignorance or lies, cause
Right now it won’t change a single thing
If I just stay in bed

If I go out
If I just stay in bed
If I go out
If I just stay in bed

Can't just dream about it
Wear it out, win the war
Hand-in-hand but still so far away
Until then we stay in bed
Eighteen months, the pressure builds
Safety pods and paying bills
Make your home a world to fill
Connect across the wide electric
Space, if I go out

Promise me I
Won’t regret a thing
Promise me your kindness and your
Care instead of
All the plagues of malice
Ignorance or lies, cause
Right now it won’t change a single thing
If I just stay in bed

If I go out
If I just stay in bed
If I go out
If I just stay in bed
