December 21st, 2023 We’re a watcher and a worrierSomeone who has ruined everything a thousandfoldAnd children who want to live their livesWe’re beings craving life beyond the everydayAnd those condemned to crawling in the memoriesDaily news is just a normal maelstromHiding from news streams because everything is worse We just went to live our lifeBut…
