Strangers

In the air and to the touch
Somewhere hiding sneaking up
Waling home and speeding up
Know too little, fear too much
Hear it before waking
Voiceless caller hanging up
Feel it creeping up on us
Somewhere hiding sneaky up
Something's creeping up on us
Nowhere hiding, sneaking up
Cracked and bleeding, feeling rough
Disinfectant not enough
Screaming with the mouth sewn shut
Too hard to remember
What sits behind the door we shut
Turns the lungs and churns the guts
Can't recover soon enough
Cracked and bleeding feeling rough
Something's creeping up on us
Somewhere hiding, sneaking up
Difficult to make the care
Till then need to fight for air
Lockdown in a shabby hole
Live or die by crown control
Hopefully try to wash it out
It will choke us if we shout
Isolated by the month
Too horrible to confront
Something creeping up on us
Somewhere hiding, sneaking up
