[Verse 1]
'Cause I heard your brother came home
Smellin' like cigarettes and death
I'm not holdin' my breath
But I hope that he gets better
And you know my cousin came home
Not quite the same, I know
It's not quite the same
But I just want you to know that I care
It's a real big world out there
Experience all we can compare
I was never even there doesn't mean I don't care
We understand the world so we know it's not fair
It'll never be the same as it once was
But different doesn’t have to mean hopeless
You can prepare
You can be scared
But in the end all you gotta do is be there

[Chorus]
'Cause I just need some time to feel better
I'm bent and so broken
Fallin' under the pressure
But I think we'll be fine
Keep it together
It feels like we're dying
We're just under the weather
The weather
[Verse 2]
Ay, yeah
The switch flipped
And your world turns to ashes
Feeling pretty sick, can't wait until it passes
And placid isn't quite the way I'd describe it
When your brother comes home
Family goes into hidin'
And nah, I've never been there I don't get it
Jeep hits a land mine
Homies dyin' while I'm in it
Dyin' in the sand, knowin' that your time's finished
Then surviving, no chance that you ever could forget it
That’s not an easy thing to carry
Matter of fact, I'm rather sure he feels the whole world on his back
And vodka only propagates the pattern
When you need to feel love and be told your life matters
I can't imagine tryna keep myself together
Knowin' that I left my friends and an arm in the desert
I know your family feels like they're comin' untethered
But I hope you get through it and I hope it gets better
Please

[Chorus]
'Cause I just need some time to feel better
I'm bent and so broken
Fallin' under the pressure
But I think we'll be fine
Keep it together
It feels like we're dying
We're just under the weather
The weather
[Bridge]
(The weather, the weather
The weather, the weather)
'Cause I've been fallin' apart
I've been thrown to the sea
(The weather, the weather)
Keepin' myself afloat is just too much
Too much for me
(The weather, the weather)
Maybe he just needs some time
To feel better
I guess all we can do
Is help him keep it together
Together

[Chorus]
'Cause I just need some time to feel better
(Keep it together)
I'm bent and so broken
Fallin' under the pressure
(Keep it together)
But I think we'll be fine
Keep it together
(Keep it together)
It feels like we're dying
(Together, keep it together)
We're just under the weather
(Keep it together)
