Hope

Blue light burning through my brain
 White knuckling the phone again
 My eyes are red
 Doomscrolling in my bed
 Chest tight from the news attack
 But then a call from an old friend, it pulls me back
 Exhale, I'm not alone in this
 I can feel some love again
 Hope
 I believe I'm feeling
 Hope
 Was down, but now I'm kneeling
 Hope
 Even if I'm bleeding
 Hope
 I'm still alive
 That phone that beat me down
 Is now a hand I'm reaching out
 We call around
 To the scared souls all alone
 Then we're a community
 Find a safe place to face to face
 Like we are meant to be
 When you're lonely, life can be too much
 You belong here you are loved
 Hope
 I believe I'm feeling
 Hope
 Was down, but now I'm kneeling
 Hope
 Even if I'm bleeding
 Hope
 I'm still alive
 This rabbit hole, it goes so low,
 Feel all alone while the world burns down
 Community is what we need
 Keep each other safe
 There's no end when you're down that rabbit hole
 There's someone in your world who needs your call
 Hope
 I believe I'm feeling
 Hope
 Was down, but now I'm kneeling
 Hope
 Even if I'm bleeding
 Hope
 I'm still alive
