Quarantining on my Own

[to the tune of "Dancing on my Own" by Robyn]

The state of Mass is reopening
Do you think that it's safe again
there's a big black sky over my town
I know the spread's there, yeah it's still around
I go to check the cases
I just gotta see it for myself

I'm quarantining
watching you gather
    oh oh oh
the spread is still the-ere
why can't you see it?
    oh oh oh
I'm giving it my all
but you're not quaran-tining at all
    ooooh
I keep staying on my own
[I keep staying on my own]

Cases fall and rise again
each time we let dooown our guard
I'm crying into my coffee
and spinning around in circles

Emotionally worn out
watching you gather
    oh oh oh
the spread is still the-ere
why can't you see it?
    oh oh oh
I'm giving it my all
but you're not quaran-tining at all
    ooooh
I keep staying on my own

So close to safe, but still so far
    [we re-open, the cases rise]
But you don't see the cycle's there
I just came to say goodbye

Walking away while
watching you gather
    oh oh oh
I'm giving it my all
but you're not quaran-tining at all
    ooooh
I keep staying on my own
[I keep staying on my own]

I'm quarantining
watching you gather
    oh oh oh
the spread is still the-ere
why can't you see it?
    oh oh oh
I'm giving it my all
but you're not quaran-tining at all
    ooooh
I keep staying on my own
[I keep staying on my own]

[I keep staying on my own]
