ISOLATION (C​-​19 edition)

about

We originally wrote this song in 2004, it's from the "Unstable" EP.

When COVID-19 started happening in North America & seeing how a lot of people seemed to be taking it lightly at first, we wanted to do a little something to spread awareness. This song was potentially perfect for that.

We re-wrote the lyrics while trying to stay as true to the original as possible. We sent each other a few ideas for how the acoustic version should go & we booked a day in the studio to record it. We went in one by one. We have never played this song together yet.

Any profit from this song will go straight to Food Banks Canada. We truly hope you will support this, share it, & especially enjoy it. Thank you all so very much.

lyrics

ISOLATION (C-19 edition)

This deadly thing
Will come & go
It’s just begun
It won’t spare anyone
& if you’re terrified
Just know that so am I
& if it makes you smile
It’s time to look alive

I hope you know this thing won’t only last one day
It’s with us now & it won’t go away

Can you see it now?
Can you understand?

Isolation is our only friend
Will you deal with this?
Will you just pretend?

Isolation is our only friend

We’re here without
A voice to hear
Isolate
Us from this thing we fear
We’re so much better now
Now that we’re all alone
Stuck inside our homes
To heal all on our own

Everything makes sense right here all by myself
I can’t explain to anybody else

Can you see it now?
Can you understand?
Isolation is our only friend
Will you deal with this?
Will you just pretend?
Isolation is our only friend

When the only voice you hear
Is the one in your head
Just know I’m here with you
& we will see this through

I hope you see it now
I hope you understand
Isolation is our only friend
I hope you’ll deal with this
It will come to an end
Isolation is our only friend.
