Keeping Busy
Why does it all come down together?
I feel the pain compounding in my head
I look at you and I'm feeling better
I hate to think I rely on you like that
'Cause all you've known is me in a crisis
I wish I could say it's not always like this
I try to separate myself from the grief
'Cause I want you to see who I am outside it
Feeling like grief follows me
It loves my shadow
Holds me when I'm cold
Stop
I'm taking my time 'cause I want to enjoy this
And I
Am finding some joy within all of the sadness
I'm feeling pulled from both sides, I start to find
That even though it hurts to feel it all
I know I wanna sit outside my sorrow
Getting on and keeping busy
And they're telling me that I should stop
I wanna be around completely
I slip away whether I like it or not
'Cause I find that moving forward
Is safer for me, I'm not trying to ignore it
Feeling like grief follows me
It loves my shadow
Holds me when I'm cold
Stop
I'm taking my time 'cause I want to enjoy this
And I
Am finding some joy within all of the sadness
I'm feeling pulled from both sides, I start to find
That even though it hurts to feel it all
I know I wanna sit outside my sorrow
Put a smile on, my love
Every day's a win for us
I know that the odds are stacked against me
But I swear it's coming up
Sometimes, I do forget that you're not there to answer anymore
But I still call and leave a note to tell you how I'm getting on
Stop
I'm taking my time 'cause I want to enjoy this
And I
Am finding some joy within all of the sadness
I'm feeling pulled from both sides, I start to find
That even though it hurts to feel it all
I know I wanna sit outside my sorrow
Feeling like grief follows me
It loves my shadow
Holds me when I'm cold
I wish for warmth of summer
Christmas comes 'round and I miss them all
I feel the pain compounding in my head
I look at you and I'm feeling better
I hate to think I rely on you like that
'Cause all you've known is me in a crisis
I wish I could say it's not always like this
I try to separate myself from the grief
'Cause I want you to see who I am outside it
Feeling like grief follows me
It loves my shadow
Holds me when I'm cold
Stop
I'm taking my time 'cause I want to enjoy this
And I
Am finding some joy within all of the sadness
I'm feeling pulled from both sides, I start to find
That even though it hurts to feel it all
I know I wanna sit outside my sorrow
Getting on and keeping busy
And they're telling me that I should stop
I wanna be around completely
I slip away whether I like it or not
'Cause I find that moving forward
Is safer for me, I'm not trying to ignore it
Feeling like grief follows me
It loves my shadow
Holds me when I'm cold
Stop
I'm taking my time 'cause I want to enjoy this
And I
Am finding some joy within all of the sadness
I'm feeling pulled from both sides, I start to find
That even though it hurts to feel it all
I know I wanna sit outside my sorrow
Put a smile on, my love
Every day's a win for us
I know that the odds are stacked against me
But I swear it's coming up
Sometimes, I do forget that you're not there to answer anymore
But I still call and leave a note to tell you how I'm getting on
Stop
I'm taking my time 'cause I want to enjoy this
And I
Am finding some joy within all of the sadness
I'm feeling pulled from both sides, I start to find
That even though it hurts to feel it all
I know I wanna sit outside my sorrow
Feeling like grief follows me
It loves my shadow
Holds me when I'm cold
I wish for warmth of summer
Christmas comes 'round and I miss them all
