[Verse 1]
Was it just so bad
When you found out nothing's invincible?
Did it make you sad?
Everyone was talking over each other
We might not know how to tell yourself
Just to face that
We're all in this alone
[Chorus]
So we taking that drive with the windows up
Don't think about them
Just think about us
Losing your mind, wasting your time
Breaking down walls that you built up
You've been doing fine, to be honest
With everything you had but you lost it
You said, "It's all right if we just try"
We can be strong, that'll never be us
That'll never be us
[Verse 2]
Did it all just change?
When you saw those buildings burning in the streets
Was it just so strange?
To see so much hate and disbelief
When the lights turn low
All you think you know
Fades away from here and now
[Chorus]
So we taking that drive with the windows up
Don't think about them
Just think about us
Losing your mind, wasting your time
Breaking down walls that you built up
You've been doing fine, to be honest
With everything you had but you lost it
You said, "It's all right if we just try"
We can be strong, that'll never be us
That'll never be us
[Bridge]
We can be strong, that'll never be us
That'll never be us
We can be strong, that'll never be us
That'll never be us
We can be strong, that'll never be us
That'll never be us
[Chorus]
So we taking that drive with the windows up
Don't think about them
Just think about us
Losing your mind, wasting your time
Breaking down walls that you built up
You've been doing fine, to be honest
With everything you had but you lost it
You said, "It's all right if we just try"
We can be strong, that'll never be us
That'll never be us

My daughter asked why everyone was angry and burning the city down in America. I did my best to explain a very complex issue about the...
