Calm Lyrics by The Overstory

The Overstory

2020

[Verse 1]
Sex with a stranger
And a one night stand
Betting it all with no ace in my hand
Chemical rush, keeping me flush
[Verse 2]
Keeping me sane at night
Face in the mirror
Looking old and strange
Too many cigarettes
Smoke in my veins
Chemical rush, it’s not enough
But it’s keeping me satisfied
[Verse 3]
How did I get here?
How’d I get home?
Makers and Mercury
I wake up alone
To the smell of the bottle
The taste of regret
I’m not at the bottom yet
[Verse 4]
I know some nights
I’m a little too stoned
Mourning thе loss
Of things I’ve never ownеd
Maybe I’m stuck
But I don’t give a fuck
High is all I can get
[Chorus 1]
Oh, I keep calm
God knows I’ll just
Carry on
Making believe that I’m strong
At least til they send in the clowns
Or the sky falls down
[Chorus 2]
I’ll be calm
Maybe I’ll write a few songs
Maybe I’ll right a few wrongs
At least til my heart rate goes down
It can’t be long now
I’ll be calm
[Outro]
And I’ll keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Ooh, I'll be calm
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Ooh, I'll be calm
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
I'll keep on keeping on
