Quarantine
BESTÒR Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a situation that happened so fast
Now I'm stuck in the basement, it got me so mad
Guess I should be grateful for everything I have
And hold on to my patience, instead of being sad
But I'm losing my cool, I'm losing my cool
'Cause I got nothing to do, I got nothing to do

Wish there was a pill that could help me slow down
I'm just in my feelings, nowhere to go now
Every year from here I hope I don't forget
All the good times that we used to have

Yesterday was young, we were only 17
I hope that wе're not stuck here until wе're 70
This should bring us closer
Am I stuck in a dream?
But no one's coming over, because we're in quarantine

Can't control emotions, like rest, our eyes would open
All bank accounts are frozen
I'm losing my hope and I can't come to the ocean
And link up with my friends, riding a drop-top Benz
With my hair down, blowing in the wind
Yeah, yeah

Wish there was a pill that could help me slow down
I'm just in my feelings, nowhere to go now
Every year from here I hope I don't forget
All the good times that we used to have

Yesterday was young, we were only 17
I hope that we're not stuck here until we're 70
This should bring us closer
Am I stuck in a dream?
But no one's coming over, because we're in quarantine

Quarantine, yeah, it got me bored here
Quarantine, yeah
Quarantine, yeah, it got me bored here
Quarantine, yeah, yeah

Yesterday was young, we were only 17
I hope that we're not stuck here until we're 70
This should bring us closer
Am I stuck in a dream?
But no one's coming over, because we're in quarantine
Yesterday was young, we were only 17
I hope that we're not stuck here until we're 70
This should bring us closer




Am I stuck in a dream?
But no one's coming over, because we're in quarantine
