Checking For a Pulse

How can things go wrong all at once Dreadful must keep checking for a pulse Brighter days ahead Negativity we should shed Not easy with the news we're engulfed

Ya, I totally agree with all the news these days, there is way to much doom and gloom. That probably is why I only listen to it once a day. It sure can get a person down. I'm all for keeping everything light with love and laughter. Even if the joke is on me.

Trying to keep away from the news, too much doom and gloom. Pity we can't fast forward to the end of this nightmare.
