Day Shapes

you’re watching the other house
considering carryout
you’re back at your parent’s
waiting this one out

it’s better than black and void
and thinking you’re paranoid
you’re shaking the polaroid
‘neath the old cut-out

you thought you’d grown out of it
those kids you would babysit
made you feel like a toy
plastic and cold

pour one for the normal times
a little vermouth and rye
pressed pause on your life
and never felt so old

still thinking bout a long time ago
and i don’t know
i think we’ve got a long time to go
so we don’t know

wrote a song in your bedroom
with lyrics so fresh and new
they really speak
to this trying time

remember your biggest fear	
that you’d never get out of here
not back on the cot
finding more words that rhyme

they still have landlines here
they’ve still got landlines here?
you ran out of beer
and called for corporate aid

thank god for the internet
you may just survive this yet
scroll for the cure 
and tap the CTA

still thinking bout a long time ago
and i don’t know
i think we’ve got a long time to go
so we don’t know

and though there are many other places
you would rather be
things are never quite as bad
as they may seem
