And they danced and they sang until their legs gave out and their voices croaked,

And they talked with words of love and hatred as their days turned monotone and their eyes grew heavy with sleep,

No one was alone anymore, but everyone felt so alone.

They made wherever they were their home.

And when the sky opened to welcome us again,

We stepped outside, and found our many friends,

Who shared our struggles, and will be with us, until the end.
