about

My song about 2020 quarantine/lockdown.
67,000 miles per hours is Earth's orbital velocity, if you were wondering.

lyrics

How long has it been?
Well it's hard to know
Maybe it's summer now
Or maybe it's about to snow
So count the days
And kill the hours
Might as well drink another
Whisky Sour

Might as well...
Might as well...

[chorus]
Sixty-Seven thousand miles per hours
And it feel like we're standing still
Moving 'round the sun
Just trying to have some fun
And keep a strong will

Don't know how I feel
Half a year in
and it's still so surreal
Everything's
so weird and strange today
Might as well try to tell myself
I like it this way

Might as well...
Might as well...
[chorus]

So where do we go from here?
What do we do
With the world so full of fear
Can we be close
Without being near?
Might as well try
Even though there's no one here

Might as well...
Might as well...
[chorus]
