Lyrics
0:21As I walk through the streets of my new city
0:25My back feeling much better, I suppose
0:28I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
0:32For better or for worse, I've yet to know
0:35But I always knew
0:37You'd be the one to understand me,
0:39I guess that's why it took
0:41So long to get things right.
0:43Suddenly I'm lost
0:45On my street
0:46On my block, Oh why, Oh why
0:50Oh why haven't you been there for me?
0:55Can't you see, I'm losing my mind this time?
1:01This time I think it's for real,
1:03I can see, All the tree tops turning red
1:05The beggars near bodegas grin at me
1:08I think they want something
1:09I close my eyes, I tell myself to breathe,
1:13And be calm.
1:17Be calm.
1:19I know you feel like you are breaking down.
1:23Oh I know that it gets so hard sometimes.
1:29Be calm
1:31I'm scared
1:32That everyone is out to get me.
1:35"These days before you speak to me you pause."
1:38"I always see you looking out your window."
1:41"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
1:44Now every single crack, every penny that I pass,
1:48Says I should either leave or pick it up
1:51But with every single buck I've made
1:54I'm saddled with bad luck that came,
1:55The moment I was baptized
1:57Or when I found out one day I'm gonna die
1:59If only I could find my people or my place in life
2:02A when they come a'carolin'
2:03So loud, so bright, the theremin
2:05Will lead us to a chorus
2:07Where we'll all rejoice and sing a song that goes:,
2:10Oh be calm.
2:12Be calm.
2:13I know you feel like you are breaking down.
2:17I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
2:23Be calm.
2:25Take it from me,
2:26I've been there a thousand times.
2:28You hate your pulse
2:29Because it thinks you're still alive
2:31And everything's wrong
2:33It just gets so hard sometimes
2:38Be calm
2:40I don't remember much that night,
2:43Just walking, thinking fondly of you
2:47Thinking how the worst is yet to come
2:52When from that street corner came a song
2:55And I can't remember the man,
2:58The panhandler or his melody.
3:02The words exchanged had far exceeded
3:06Any change I'd given thee
3:14Oh be calm.
3:16Be calm.
3:18I know you feel like you are breaking down.
3:21Oh I know that it gets so hard sometimes,
3:27Be calm.
3:29Take it from me,
3:30I've been there a thousand times.
3:32You hate your pulse
3:34Because it still thinks you're alive
3:36And everything's wrong
3:38It just gets so hard sometimes
3:42Be calm.
3:44Be calm.
