about

This song is about the isolation and hopelessness of quarantine during the Covid pandemic. Written in August of 2020 after capturing the bat flying around my house at four in the morning.

lyrics

We’ve been sleeping in till noon
And napping, cause what else is there to do right now
We have to make the days pass by somehow

I think, we’ve been drinking way too much
And wishing that when we touch the world would just get lost
I hate the way that we can never shut it off

We’re waking up irrational and unamused
All our worst fears illogical, they all came true
While we endured the silence of the room

Lately things are such a mess,
I wish that non fiction could just rest
And the fables didn’t breathe
I miss when monsters only existed in my dreams

It's the curse of modern living
It's the paradox of Progress,
The easier things get
The more complicated they become

We’re waking up irrational and unamused
All our worst fears illogical, they all came true
While we suffer the anxiety of summer afternoons
And put up with the bankruptcy of endless cable news
The bats are in the belfry and the petunias are in bloom
While we endure the silence of the room.
