birthdays and holidays come and go
the worlds keep turning
sickness takes over family time
the world keeps turning
broken promises beget broken hearts
the world keeps turning
rockets light up the sky
news reports of growing deaths
and yet the world keeps turning

ReplyDeleteThanks AJ.
DeleteThe refrain works because it's true. This feels up close personal and big picture objective at the same time. (in a good way)
ReplyDeleteThank you Avery.
