Where Were You When the World Stopped

from Where Were You When the World Stopped by Brad Byrd

/

about

I wrote this song in late March early April of 2020 when it was all sinking in that a serious pandemic was upon on us. This song captures the headspace I was in, I think. ;)

lyrics

Where were you when the world stopped
Were you running in the street
Yeah it's true, we're all that we've got
Now it's just you and me
And do you have enough to eat
And do you have enough to breathe

Where were you when the world stopped
Were you hiding in the rain
And to think, you'd never get caught
Were you really that insane
Was it fortune or fame
Now you see we're all the same

Where were you when the world stopped
were you still getting high
And you never even gave it a thought
Now you're wondering why
And can you stay inside
And can you stay alive

Where were you when the world stopped
Were you right on track
And did you get all that you want
And can you live in lack
Not run with the pack
Not plan the attack

Where were you when the world stopped
Were you fighting back the tears
And to think it's all for not
Throughout all these years
As you conquered your fears
Yeah you made them disappear
Never showed'm that you cared

Where were you when the world stopped
