War
It’s a war
We can’t see the enemy
It’s invisible
It came with little warning
We weren’t prepared

War

It’s a war
It’s everywhere
Hurting many
We have to fight
With everything we’ve got
We have to be smart
Smarter than we’ve ever been

War

It’s a war
We have to work together
Across the world
To find ways to conquer the enemy
Until then
We must stay inside
To protect ourselves and others

War

It’s a war
They are usually won slowly
It takes time
We must be patient
But in the end it will be over
And at that time
We can begin to rebuild
But let’s not forget how we came together
Anyway we could
Online
Singing from balconies
Applauding the ones going off to fight
Free online concerts
New songs in the air
Online classes and museum tours
Generosity to those in need

In the end
We are all human
We are one

War
