Get Through

What makes you so certain that I didn’t go through it?
Just like you did, what makes you convinced?
Is it cause it takes me a lot to be agitated
It’s so naive to see that as a weakness

A mellow demeanor, an even exterior
Do you know the work it takes to have this attitude?
I won’t yell to be heard, ‘cause that’s so much easier
I will exercise restraint to find a better you

I look around and I see you, friend
You’ve got a lot on your mind
A lot on your mind and
I don’t know if you know it or not but I’m
Gonna get through to you

Take all of your nagging fears as you go
I know you wanted me to come along
I left earlier so you wouldn’t see me go
I can’t pretend that that’s where I belong
With you, bored and low

A mellow demeanour, an even exterior
Do you know the work it takes to have this attitude?
I don’t yell to be heard, ‘cause that’s so much easier
I have exercised restraint and found a better you

Shake off what those had-beens told you before
You are resilient, shining off the walls
Take my word, you know I love you as a whole
You know you’re brilliant and you don’t belong
Down there, bored and low
