The nation woke up but the nightmares won’t disappear
The darkness covers our light
And when we wake up, we still see darkness even after the sun comes up
We cry ourselves to sleep
And we cry ourselves awake
The moments in between seem like worlds away and time goes slow and then it speeds up
The numbness doesn’t let us know where we are and why we are here
All we know is that we are with each other in this very dark world
