Quarantine Song Lyrics

Brother, it's amazing

How I've been missing you

And sister, we're going crazy

And you know how I've been missing you too

The distances between us

May be nothing new

But it may be quite a while yet

Before they're through

Like atoms, we're connected

Across the universe

One way then the other

In sympathy we turn our course

Entanglement's a comfort

Estrangement a curse

Sometimes we need reminding

It could be worse

There's only looking up

From the bottom of a well

We may have reached that far

At least as far as I can tell

And though the water's rising

We float so well

The sky was mesmerizing

And then it fell

We're all a bit like gold

Gold that's pounded flat

But pressed to such thinness

This element can be brought back

Entropy can't harm us

We're just like that

If the gift of human kindness

Is still intact

A match without friction

Struggles to ignite

Potential is there for fire

But only if the moment's right

Things are getting colder

Can you spare a light?

And I'm feeling so much older

But that's alright

A body that's in motion

Will stay in motion

And a body that's at rest

Will always tend to stay at rest

Certain laws of physics, this quarantine will test

Energy is poetic

When potential turns kinetic

With love however distant
