It's Gonna Be Okay

Mon, 01 Feb 2021 13:40:54 +0000

It's hard to think about tomorrow When we're so busy surviving today But no matter how bad things get It's gonna be okay Even though we're all suffering and although friends are far away We're still sticking together So it's gonna be okay

The world outside looks so bleak But this night isn't going to stay This is only the dark before the dawn It's gonna be okay

Things are going to get better soon Because we'll all work to make them that way United, we can do anything So I know it's gonna be okay

Together We'll Make It

Mon, 28 Dec 2020 13:50:15 +0000

It's been a long journey and though we don't know where it ends We're almost there I can feel it It's been a difficult journey Those who could walk, walked Those who couldn't walk, we carried But we couldn't carry everyone

It's been a strange journey Different than anything we've faced before We mustn't forget all that we've learned We mustn't forget all that we've lost

It's been a tiring journey The end is still far away But if we walk together I know we'll make it

Six Feet

Mon, 21 Dec 2020 13:52:02 +0000

You're six feet away I can't reach for you I can't take your hand You can't tell me it's alright It's been so long since we've seen the sun So long ago since I last saw you

I thought many times That I could go it alone But now that I am alone I know I was wrong

I don't want this I want to see life I want to be closer than six feet

One day soon The sun will rise again And on that beautiful day I won't stay six feet away

We're Surviving Together

Mon, 10 Aug 2020 12:37:27 +0000

Remember when this started? This whole unending nightmare It began, and darkness fell We were all scared It's frustrating to see People in charge doing nothing It's hard to see an end To this endless night

We're still scared People still do nothing But we've seen the best in others The spark of hope in the dark

We've made it this far It's still a long way to go But we'll get there And we'll do it together

The Story Behind We’re Surviving Together

I'm Here If You Need Me

Mon, 03 Aug 2020 12:38:28 +0000

I helped you out And you got annoyed You didn't want my help Even if I thought you needed it I tried again but still got it wrong I didn't understand but you explained it

You don't want help You want to prove that you can go it alone You don't need anyone

Then everything changed Everyone needed help So now I'll say instead “I'm here if you need me”

The Story Behind I’m Here If You Need Me

Long Way Away

Mon, 11 May 2020 12:58:31 +0000

Even though you're far away And I won't see you soon I want you to know now That I'm thinking about you That time we stood around and talked We got to know each other a little better It's still all in my head And for now, it'll have to do

I'm looking forward to the next time When we get together once again Even if it can't be long It'll still be between us friends

That time is a long way away So for now, know that I miss you I'll keep you in my thoughts And I hope you'll spare me a thought, too

Not Every Superhero has Superpowers

Mon, 06 Apr 2020 13:03:57 +0000

Not every superhero wears a mask Some can only wear a smile Showing that they understand another's problems As they work to guide people out of the dark Not every superhero has gadgets Some of them wear bright vests announcing to the world that help is on the way as smoke and debris fills the air

Not every superhero wears a cape Some of them wear surgical masks and gloves Struggling every day to make a difference against overwhelming odds

Not every superhero has superpowers Most of them are ordinary people that when the world was ending, stopped and asked “How can I help?”

Remember the Sun

The night has fallen Shrouding the world in unknown An endless darkness

Remember the sun Soon its light will break the storm And bring back the day
