Strange Time

If God exists it seems the world is really ending
The sky is red with flame and now there is a plague
I’m still completely stunned, when you said this year would be different
I should have asked you what that meant

Somehow the days dripped into weeks, slipped into seasons
But in here it’s like it’s twilight all the time
Now that the city is oh so quiet
And the sirens fill the air with a bitter cry

It’s a Strange Time

Now I'm locked down in my home
Just scrolling on my phone
I’m trying to fathom the tragedy now and hereafter
Everybody’s been saying how they need to take a break
We got more than we bargained for this time

It’s a Strange Time
It ain't play time

Locked down in my home
Practicing the saxophone
The neighbours ain't happy but then again who’s really happy?
Now’s the time to do all the things that you’ve been putting off
Like pray to your maker that everything will be alright

It is peaceful and uneasy in the evening
I lean out my window sill and sip my glass of wine
Now all of the towns and the cities are oh so quiet
Can you feel us all looking up at that distant sky?

In a Strange Time
It ain't play time
