We were truly lovers in a dangerous time
Just like Bruce Cockburn’s famous rhyme
When I think of Covid-19
I will think of the days
Where all i cared about was a line
Nothing was fine
The collective cry of humanity
Rang out around me
As we all took a knee
For 8 minutes and 46 seconds
because black lives matter.
Australia was a glow
with red flame
Donald trump was the name
On everyone’s lips
The chaos my crash and explode around
but you can find a way
to feel calm and safe
And keep keeping on
against all trials and costs
be your own best friend
Even in this madness you can find yourself again
