Are You Now 03:10
Are you now Or have you ever been feeling alone now Out of control now Isolater, rager Medicate enabler Don't give up you are enough oh Can you see The love I have in me I know you can't see it I know you can't feel it Look out of your window Protector and your hero I'm right here I'm always near oh You've got the love you need So stop and breathe with me You're not alone you'll see What to do We can't deny the news I know the assessment Is quite inconvenient Disaster mitigator Ignore the naysayer Don't give up you're greatly loved You know it's true What they say to you I know you can't see them I know you can hear them Messenger and healer Motivate hope dealer You're so brave So don't forsake faith You've got the love you need So stop and breathe with me You're not alone you'll see Are you now Or have you ever been feeling alone now You're never alone now I am always near you Sincerely know and hear you Don't give up you are enough oh

Wormhole 03:48
I need you But more than that I love you So many dreams have come true Staring in your eyes Breakthrough Is almost ours to walk through If we can shake these shackles Imprisoning our minds You are the one you are the only one for me to breakthrough this solitary purgatory Glimpses of the future come rolling over me Wormhole 'clipsing spacetime our eventual destiny Who knew All that we'd have to go through All that we'd have to live through In order to align Argue So many hurts we'd pursue But finally we both knew The blessing in disguise You are the one you are the only one for me To breakthrough this solitary purgatory Glimpses of the future come rolling over me Wormhole 'clipsing spacetime our eventual destiny Thank you That you never withdrew Your love for me you continue To never compromise I need you But more than that I love you So many dreams will come true Staring in your eyes

Your long hair It's up it's down You spread your germ Around the town Your extrovert you got it down You tell him how He needs you now Without your help he won't know how Starving the kids go off to bed When all is said It's 3 am Where have you been They wonder who is next of kin Who will take care Of them again When you'll be back no one knows when You ricochet you overstay then back away again Divorcee to fiancee then a power play again I need you now I hate you can't live without you ever again Your lipstick It's red hot red 40 DM's They're still unread The principal he's on your case Where are the kids It's very late How will they ever graduate Your uber driver likes your smile He likes your smell Here he goes now For the hard sell Did you know that there's an inn He knows up North About a mile Wanna socialize a while? You ricochet you overstay then back away again Cabernet, Club Bombay, Vacay mid-day again They wonder what it takes to get you on your feet again You ricochet you overstay then back away again Divorcee to fiancee then a power play again I need you now I hate you can't live without you ever again You ricochet I need you You ricochet Your long hair It's up it's down You spread your germ Around the town Your extrovert you got it down You tell him how You need him now Without his help you won't know how

about

Sporting a wide variety of influences, from trip-hop to folk, dub reggae to disco, and post-punk to funk, “Shelter in Place” sums up the collective experience of a global pandemic. The songs represent a journey through lockdowns, beginning with a mellow, chilled out message of universal love (“Are You Now,” “Wormhole”), continuing with a metaphorical time-trip through the wormhole (“Tesseract”), the stir-crazy need to act out setting in (“Ricochet”). “Shelter in Place” was created by and for isolated people. There is solace in a song well sung, comfort in a chorus. Mike and Mandy hope the experience of listening to this album is as soothing as making it was.
