Colour-Coded Calendar

Verse 1

Color-coded calendar

Every box filled in

If I plan it hard enough

Nothing bad gets in

Weather app

Five times an hour

Like that changes rain

Refresh the headlines

Try to outguess pain

Chorus

I keep my hands

On this white-knuckle world

If I let go

Does it all come unfurled?

If I don't hold

Every moving part

Will it all fall down

Or just break my heart?

Verse 2

Straighten every picture frame

Shoes in perfect rows

I rearrange the furniture

Like that calms the unknown

Track my breathing

Track my sleep

Track the traffic light

If I can map the chaos

Maybe I feel right

Chorus

I keep my hands

On this white-knuckle world

If I let go

Does it all come unfurled?

If I don't hold

Every moving part

Will it all fall down

Or just break my heart?

Bridge

What if the dishes stay in the sink?

What if the plan falls through?

What if the sky just does what it wants

And I still make it through?

(yeah)

I’m so tired of being the dam

Against an endless tide

Maybe the only thing I can steer

Is what I feel inside

Chorus

I keep my hands

Off this white-knuckle world

If I let go

Maybe it won’t unfurl

If I don't hold

Every moving part

Maybe it stays standing

And so does my heart
