The words are flowing out of me
To this peculiar melody
Feel like I'm running away
To find a a fate, to find a chance
To dictate my own happenstance
Feel like I'm running away

Raise my glass to things familiar
As I shed these purple tears
Grant me sanctuary darling
Please ignore my purple tears

Caught in a web, my very own
Why am I everything but gone
I can't even run away
Where's my fate, where is my chance
Did karma sway my happenstance
I can't even run away

Raise my glass to things familiar
As I shed these purple tears
Grant me sanctuary darling
Please ignore my purple tears

Cheers to the sting, to the need
To hold them back
Cheers to the reminder
Of what I lack
Where's my fate, Where is my chance

Raise my glass to things familiar
As I shed these purple tears
Grant me sanctuary darling
Please ignore my purple tears

Gazebo

By Karianne Gabaldon

This song is about the coronavirus and my views and opinions on it. I honestly do not think it’s real, I think it’s all just a hype to freak people out. Just like Y2K. They’ve done this to us almost every year! So I believe that they patients who’ve died are either actors or have died from something else and the media just saying it’s that.

Sunshine.

By Brian Hendrix

I really liked the way this turned out. It's fun to sing too, with different inflections of "Sunshine" at the start of each sentence. As far as the writing, I think it does well to paint a picture of a world without sunshine, especially when it's revealed what "sunshine" is.
