[Verse 1] You’ve been carrying stone In your own two hands Knuckles white, jaw tight Trying to understand The day keeps asking more Than your body can give So set it on the floor There’s another way to live [Pre-Chorus] Breathe in, breathe out Let the hard parts fall You don’t have to hold Everything at all [Chorus] Stay calm, stay calm Let the weight go Stay calm, stay calm Let the light show When you let go the weight For a while You’ll find your feet And you’ll smile [Verse 2] Put the heavy names down At the edge of the bed All that borrowed pressure Spinning round your head You can leave it there now Walk away unchained Nothing bad will happen If you ease the strain [Pre-Chorus] Breathe in, breathe out Let the hard parts fall You don’t have to hold Everything at all [Chorus] Stay calm, stay calm Let the weight go Stay calm, stay calm Let the light show When you let go the weight For a while You’ll find your feet And you’ll smile [Bridge] One slow step Then another No race tonight No cover Soft hands, soft heart Open door You were never made To carry more [Final Chorus] Stay calm, stay calm Let the weight go Stay calm, stay calm Let the light show When you let go the weight For a while You’ll find your feet And you’ll smile Stay calm, stay calm Let it go now Stay calm, stay calm You know how When you let go the weight For a while You come back home To your smile
