Lockdown

We live in lockdown

chased by shadows from afar

A past misstep becomes a scar

Though we strive to move ahead

We're tethered to this thread

We live in lockdown

We live in lockdown

And through mob intimidation

And widespread cancelation

In this state of condemnation

Boycott seems our sole salvation

We live in lockdown

And the world will keep spinning

Not caring how we are living

We live in lockdown

We live in lock down

While the pundits put their spin

On whatever mess we are in

Everyone wants to save their skin

And honesty's a deadly skin

We live in lockdown

We live in lockdown

People don't know who to trust

Talkin' heads like talkin' bots

Evrybody makin' (Each mind a maze of) tangled thoughts

Amidst the chaos truth seems lost

We live in lockdown

And every word that we mutter

Brings us closer to the gutter

We live in lockdown

Like an itch you just can't scratch

Blame the fire ignore the match

It's hard to keep track

So Unaware of all we lack

Always on the defensive stance

On the eve of our last dance

No time to spare no space for chance

We live in lockdown

We live in lockdown

We live in lockdown
