The Credit and the Name (10/2017)

You can keep me busy.
I can keep you calm.
We can say we’re lucky
While you trace my palm.

We can sit together.
Wonder where we are.
We can dwell on nothing
Underneath the stars.

One of these days we’ll get there.
Resilience. Our brilliance.
We don’t fight.
We just breathe.

It’s all already happened
If it all stays the same.
We know what’s gonna happen
If we don’t ever change.

I’ll give you the credit.
And I will take the blame.
You can make them happy.
They can shout my name.

One night we can look back.
We can laugh about our scars.
See that all of them mattered.
We’ll be among the stars.

One of these days we’ll get there.
Resilience. Our brilliance.
We don’t fight.
We just breathe.

It’s all already happened
If it all stays the same.
Don’t know what’s gonna happen
If we decide to change.

Nowadays they hear my name
and you’re the one to blame.
