Warning Sirens

The birds sang their warning sirens while the humans stayed home
Cause the people sang in mourning silence
The ground stopped shaking a bit
No mistaking a lit fuse has taken over the news
So the birds sang their warning sirens
When the humans stayed home
The birds and the bees all lived in the trees while the humans stayed home
The pollution stopped when the humans stopped
Is it allergies when you sneeze or cough?
Why do you feel off?
Don't you hear the birds singing warning sirens
When the humans stayed home
They lost their community
There's no immunity from being alone
There's no escaping from yourself
We're meant to roam
Going to and fro
And the humans sat still inside til it was safe to go outside
Nature took its path, it was quiet at last
When the humans stayed put
The winds blew like a hurricane through the plans the humans made
But it's a slower time, any lower I'm afraid I'll retrograde
Can you hear the winds blowing
They'll take your breath away
Hunker in there's a change in the weather
Together we'll be OK
Creatures big and small all sheltered in place
When the humans stayed home
They lost their community
There's no immunity from being alone
There's no escaping from yourself
You're meant to roam
Going and wander going to and fro
And the humans sat still inside til it was safe to go outside
The birds sang their warning sirens while the humans stayed home
Cause the people sang in mourning silence
The ground stopped shaking a bit
No mistaking a lit fuse has taken over the news
And the birds sing their warning sirens

Solitaire, there's a familiar feeling in the air
It's solitude, the walls all around creating a mood
Ambience is missing something
Listen to what your heart is going through
A time of turbulent emotions
Lit by the familiar glow of the phone
Player one, another adventure going alone
My only company these days are the songs on my mental playlist
This, the soundtrack to my mind
Who knows what I'll find when I dig deep enough
The stuff that therapy unravels
As my mind travels further in
Or is it farther in
To the corners and places and spaces I've been
And life changing events
From whence I came I'm not the same, I'm just spouting nonsense
Plus, there's no "us", it's only me
Only lonely me
Solitaire, there's a familiar feeling in the air
It's solitude, the walls all around creating a mood
Life changing events
From whence I came I'm not the same, I'm just spouting nonsense
Plus, there's no "us", it's only me
Only lonely me
