Calm
Calm
Sometimes your imagination can be a curse as it
Runs
You
Around.
One dark fantasy after another until you
Fall
On
The
Ground.
It’s hard for anyone else to understand you.
Try to understand them too.
Everything’s gonna
Be
Alright.
Get some sweet dreams tonight.
You’re lost even in your house,
You can’t find a way out.
Keep a level head,
No need to shout.
You think everything’s upside down,
You’re losing your mind.
And it might actually be real
This
Time.
Close your eyes,
Tell yourself to breathe.
Say “Not everyone’s out to get me.”
Oh, calm.
Calm.
You feel like you are breaking down,
It gets so hard sometimes.
Calm.
You’re so scared of everything.
You just breathe and I will sing.
Fate seems to bring bad luck with
Every
Choice
You
Make.
Center yourself when the world
Starts
To
Shake.
Terrified that this is it,
You will never find your people.
You’re not alone,
I’ll lead the chorus
To a song that goes:
Oh,
Calm.
Calm.
You feel like you are breaking down,
It gets so hard sometimes.
Calm.
You go through it a thousand times.
Your pulse is going too fast,
And everything’s wrong.
Just listen to this song.
Calm.
You think the worst is yet to come,
You don’t remember much.
Thinking of monsters
And demons
And such.
Even when you don’t remember me
Or the melody,
The words shall ever remain with thee:
Oh,
Calm.
Calm.
You feel like you are breaking down,
It gets so hard sometimes.
Calm.
You go through it a thousand times.
Your pulse is going too fast,
And everything’s wrong.
Just listen to this song.
Calm.
Your heartbeat will be the death of you,
You swear.
Lavender and rain,
The scent
Fills
The
Air.
Just breathe.
Oh,
Calm.
Calm.
You feel like you are breaking down,
It gets so hard sometimes.
Calm.
You go through it a thousand times.
Your pulse is going too fast,
And everything’s wrong.
Just listen to this song.
Calm.
Calm.
Calm.
