New Normal

Now, what is this? Feeling I know you from long ago From deep in the past I don't know why But I trust you completely Don't question it The bottle is empty Now, what is this? Club closing early The fog machines And lasers swirling It's Halloween I'm sorry for screaming But I'm afraid I scare you completely Now, what is this? Blizzard in April I'm under dressed as usual And you're cheating death Buying time through the winter It's house arrest No stopping for dinner Now, what is this? Microphone working I hear myself The cameras are rolling And there's the cue My heart, it beats so hard I look for you, and suddenly fall Now, what is this? Robin you rescued Has broken me Not broken lungs You search the room Someone yells from the garden The orange cat Finish what you started Now, what is this? Skidding of tires I hold my breath And you're running fast As the SUV Smashes into the sidewalk And 911 Won't answer the call Now, what is this? Hollywood ghost town A shootout scene No actors at all Last night I dreamed You and I were immortal It's no big deal This new kind of normal
