Covid-19 Old Friend, It's Been a Long Time

Is that you? It's been along time. You look different and yet your the same Hiding, waiting quietly in the dark Crooked smile, moist and dripping You said man needs to be still. Always mixing and matching things that should not be. Is that you? It's been along time. People running scared of their own shadow You closing things down You mean business this time I see You said man needs to be still. Always mixing and matching those things that should not be. Is that you? It's been a long time. You said you would be back You would bring humanity to its knees They can't contain you, even thou they created you You said man needs to be still. Always mixing and matching things that should not be. Is that you? It's been a long time Silence is loud Streets are void Life stalled You said man needs to be still. Always mixing and matching things that should not be. Is that you? It's been a long time.
