"Overground" Is my first lockdown song. Like everyone, I felt so isolated and depressed and stuck. I wrote it feeling a little hopeless, but knowing everybody was in the same boat. We were all just trying to stay healthy, stay alive, stay sane, and wait it out before we could see each other again.

lyrics

Everything’s on hold
Round here
Who knew this would be
Such a terrible year
I miss my old life
My friends
And I’m falling again

I hear sirens all day long
Stuck inside my mind
Wondering what went wrong
And I can’t tell you when I’ll be home
But I love you
You should know

And the world keeps spinning around
And we try to keep our heads overground
The world keeps spinning around

I wanna stay in bed all day
Tell this mess to go away
But I have more than one mouth to feed
And I’m trying to believe

Everything is upside down
Everyone is walking spaced out
Six feet apart in a line
And they tell us we’ll be fine

And the world keeps spinning around
And we try to keep our heads overground
The world keeps spinning around

Everything’s on hold
Round here
Who knew this would be
Such a terrible year
I miss my old life
My friends
And I’m falling again
