Keep Calm and Carry On

from The Bottommost Rung by A Scene from JAWS

lyrics

[Verse 1]
You are all I think about
And have been since we met
Pour yourself a drink
I'm gonna need a safety net
When I stop falling
Once I've collided with the Earth
So here's to us, who both
Know what your life is worth

[Verse 2]
I woke up to your smell
Hard rain like daggers 'round us fell
And in your perfect soul
Our pieces merged 'gainst our control
So come to Paris with me
Let our infectious love mature
Eternal youth is in
Parisian liquour

[Bridge]
You build me up like the Berlin Wall
Then tore me down
Unopened flower on a waterfall
On higher ground

You build me up like the Berlin Wall
Then tore me down
Unopened flower on a waterfall
On higher ground
A level playing field, an open goal
And a mutual friend
I never meant to pollute your soul
But would again
Yeah, yeah

[Coda]
To spare me your self-righteous indignation
I've cut off all forms of communication
There's no hope of rehabilitating me
So keep calm and carry on

I'm out of touch with my generation
I've lost control of the situation
There's no hope of rehabilitating me
So keep calm and carry on
