Falling in Falling in Verse 2 Waking to this horror. Day after day Boredom has set in. Fear won’t go away Wake to a silent world. People are gone Wanting familiar faces. Feel so alone Chorus Verse 3 Everyone’s in a mask. All so afraid Keep your distance outside. Try to stay safe Want to escape the boredom.
