When I woke up this morning, something was different / The stories trending on my feed seem positive / Ice caps re-freezing / War ending across our planet / All pronouns and races granted equal payment / Isn’t that good news? / I almost forgot what it felt like to hear some good news / Not fake news, not bad news, or existential blues / Weapons disarming en masse / It’s never been safer to go to class / No more fear mongering / We can heave a big sigh of relief / The president’s on my TV telling the nation he’s so sorry / A total 180; a fleet of bulldozers topple the patriarchy / Isn’t that good news? / I almost forgot what it felt like to hear some good news / Not fake news, not bad news, or existential blues / Weapons disarming en masse / It’s never been safer to go to class / No more fear mongering / We can heave a big sigh of relief / I almost forgot what it felt like /
