Keeping Calm the Lives We Know

Two fall down
And you,
without a sound.
I've been scarred by who you are
A million times around.
These hands of mine can't keep the time
The way they did before I got found out.
I'll find you on the other side
Of all the darkest days.
I took it all to heart
And thought it kind to run away
But I will stay
I'll stay.
For the button holes and marigolds
that frame the summer days
I'll take apart the only heart
I've ever tried to save.
Who's to blame here,
Lay here,
And miss each day, dear?
Tell me something I don't know
Hold my head and sing real slow
Draw these homes an old dirt road
For keeping calm the lives we know.
