lyrics

You pace the hallway until you reach the front door
But you know there won’t be anyone there
Back to the bedroom and wander to the back door
Till you find you’re at the foot of the stairs

You miss your father
You miss your mother
You miss the people you know
But you’ve got room mates
You’ve got the dogs
You’ve got nowhere to go

Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together

Out on the front porch you wave to all the neighbors
And you seem like you genuinely care.
Open your phone to text another friend
But you know that you’ve got nothing to share.

Another day in
Another night in
Another hour alone.
You call your brother
You call your father
But no one picks up the phone.

Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together

You dream of beaches and far away places
But you know that it’s all in vain.
You had some tickets for a flight back in April
But you know you’ll never catch that plane.

You think of sunsets
Over the ocean
You think of music and dance
Far away places
Far away people
You’ll miss to circumstance

You’ve been trying to make sense of all the news
Stuck at home again with quarantine blues.

Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
Keep yourself together
