lyrics

lockdown, turn around, it's the year of solitude
i keep looking at the time it's always 25 past 2
the fears set in late at night

violent and silent like my own b52
creeping up behind me always throwing me for a loop
it keeps me up late at night

and i still can't catch my breath
i'm up at dawn
i've been given all this time i just pass it on
a collage of clickbait headlines,
bar graphs, tiktoks, game stocks, body counts
it keeps me up late at night

i'm starting to feel like i've solved life's mystery
it's walking with my partner and my dog up and down the street
it keeps me warm late at night

but i still can't catch my breath
i'm up at dawn
i've been given all this time i just pass it on
a barrage of discourse, anti-vaxxers, neoliberal scumbag actors
that keep me up late at night

when i still can't catch my breath
i'm up at dawn
i've been given all this time i just pass it on
to the sound of the bloodhound upstairs barking,
white men talking about the housing market
it keeps me up late at night
it keeps me up late at night
it keeps me up late at night
