From the recording When This Is Over

Lyrics

It started with a memo, “If you’re sick, please stay away”
But I got word they shut production down today
So I picked up my last paycheck and rushed off to the market
And tried not to take the last of anything

When this is over - I’ll be mindful not to waste
Be it water or hours on thoughts that may be moot
When this is over - I will smile and look you in the eye
Every time I say “I love you”

They say “fear keeps you alive, but bravery makes it worth it”
It’s no wonder some of us struggle inside
Why do some men boast the lie that they ain’t afraid to die
When the toughest of us sometimes just wanna cry

When this is over - I will try to make amends
And even lend a hand to those with whom I disagree
When this is over - we’ll see we have more in common
Now that we’re all in the same boat stuck at sea

When this is over - we’ll be stronger than ever together
When this is over, hell, we’ll all ride again
And we might bask in the sunshine drinkin’ cheap wine but I’ll
Be sure to greet you with a warm embrace, my friend
Yes I’ll greet you with a warm embrace, my friend
