Demo of the Day (Kinda how I feel of late dealing with all the uncertainties Covid has brought into mine and all of our lives

lyrics

DIG OUT

sledge hammer
shovel
pick & spear

i’m gonna dig out
from under, baby
save me a beer

im buried under
piles of stuff
that i never thought i’d face
but that’s just how my life goes
im still a turtle in
this race

im gonna do it for you
& ill do it for me
no bootstraps
on these feet
but ill pull on my shoes
like a tough guy
like a fighter
in the heat

sledge hammer
shovel
pick & spear

i’m gonna dig out
from under, baby
save me a beer

if i close
my eyes
i see a tiny
humming bird on a string
bright colors
like a Almodovar movie
a pretty song t sing

might be raining
it might be thunder
but i got a bullet proof vest
my heart will be safe
it always is
& you know
the rest

sledge hammer
shovel
pick & spear

i’m gonna dig out
from under, baby
save me a beer
