Feel: At Home

lyrics

I feel alone, and everyone is locked inside

Feel: at home
And maybe some have gone and died
But I will get by

"Yeah, there's nothing out there" I've read
Some guy on the internet

The stranger that's killing them
Seems better than what's in my head

Can't keep my thoughts down, yes I've tried
I've no more time to bide

Feel: at Home
Revealed my face with no divide
But I still feel fine

Yeah, I can't see droplets in air
A lie it must be, or rare

The danger that's killing them
Is better than what's in my head

Feel: At Home
Convinced my family to not abide
And we're all doing fine

Yeah, this lockdown just isn't fair
I make signs to show I care

It's the fear that's killing them
I like all my thoughts here instead

I feel at home
Rebellion so boosts my pride
Nothing can slow my stride

Feel: at home
While all my conflicts rot inside
For now, I just don't mind

I feel at home
Although a friend I hear confide
A healing war they fight

Feel: At Home
That friend since breathed his last few nights
And still I'll be alright

A stranger that's bringing death
All around me infected with

The danger that's killing them
Is better than what's in my head

I feel alone
'Cause everyone I've loved has died
But I should be fine

The goal: to create songs as individual, fictional stories inspired by real people and events in an attempt to make the empty space, which enveloped the songwriter, feel a little bit less empty over the many, many months we were to endure. ... more
