It’s the lockdown song

When all has gone wrong 

I am shut inside 

With nowhere to hide 

If I open the spout

Will it all pour out? 

This tidal wave 

Against how to behave 

How to control it 

How shall I hold it? 

Bottled up gloom

There’s not enough room 

It used to just be

When I was just me

Landslide intensity 

Flowing freely 

I write I write 

I scream I shout 

I quiver it out 

Singsong, take flight!
