Fallen On Deaf Ears
Only the Virus is in the know.
When it's the time for it to go.
It is out of our comprehension
What is this pandemic's intention?
Was it sent to make things worse,
Making every human being curse,
Or did we need to be shown
That the world doesn't turn for us alone.
We can't survive on self and greed,
Unity is what we need.
This virus will get stronger and stronger,
Until the world will be no longer
Here, because I fear
We refused to hear.
