Keep It Down

There’s a storm in a teacup

‘Cause you’re saying goodbye

And you don’t understand yet

What it means to fly


There’s a storm in a teacup

And the money’s on the wall

Just waiting for you to take it

If you’d just stop your fall


There’s a storm in a teacup

That he was drinking at the bar

You’re saying he might be the one

Even if you barely know him


There’s a storm in a teacup

The kid was holding as he died

They think revelation’s coming

As soon as he lies


There’s a storm in a teacup

It’s bubbling out the top

It’s flowing from the river

It’s pouring out your mouth

It’s beyond you know

If you even ever felt it

‘Cause you mess up

With every held

You’re dealt with

Dealers telling you to try another game

But you’re obsessed with imagined profanes


There’s a storm in a teacup

And it takes the form of fog

That covers eyes

And smothers mouths

And fills the ears with lies


There’s a storm in a teacup

That you will soon forget

For what you’re sure , is sure to pass

It hasn’t happened yet


Look away kid

Look away

There’s a storm in a teacup every day

And if you’re not ready

To drink it down

Well sink or swim friend

‘Till you’re grown
