The door



Sometimes there is a door here we cannot open
Covid doesn't let us
we are all scared and we know it

We look at it
but we lie everyday to ourselves though we know this "pandemic" is man made
we can stop it the government isn't doing anything
 we are sitting waiting for a move
we sit there watching the news waiting... Waiting

Don't believe the lies they tell
Don't wait till your under their spell
Don't try to lie to yourself
Try your best to not lose your mind

If we come together
We can help ourselves
We can change everything
From this lock down till the way we think

And if we don't the government is gonna take control
You don't know anything about the pandemic
They tell us lies and we believe them
They down restrictions then put them up again
They control this...
