Composure

Shake it off
Pick yourself up, they say
Your life fell apart in your hands, and you've got the scars to prove it
It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper

Pull it together
Button up your shirt
Roll down those sleeves
Don't let them see how you've coped

It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper

More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand (x2)

It seems like you're giving up
Giving up on everything, you worked for (x2)

It's pulling you under.
It's gripping around your throat (x2)

It seems like you're giving up
It seems like you're giving up on everything

It's pulling you under
It's pulling you under

Life can be overwhelming
But don't turn your back on the strongest crutch you've ever
You've ever had
They have always been there to brace your fall

Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead (x4)

You've got you whole life to lead (x2)
It's time to gain some ground

Compostura

Sacúdelo
Recógate, dicen
Tu vida se desmoronó en tus manos, y tienes las cicatrices para probarlo
No es la primera vez, y se están volviendo más profundos

Reúntalo
Abríchate la camisa
Baja esas mangas
No dejes que vean cómo lo has hecho

No es la primera vez, y se están volviendo más profundos

Cada vez más su comportamiento parece arenas movedizas (x2)

Parece que te estás rindiendo
Rendirse a todo, trabajó para (x2)

Te está tirando abajo
Se está agarrando alrededor de tu garganta (x2)

Parece que te estás rindiendo
Parece que estás renunciando a todo

Te está tirando por debajo
Te está tirando por debajo

La vida puede ser abrumadora
Pero no le des la espalda a la muleta más fuerte que hayas tenido
Alguna vez has tenido
Siempre han estado ahí para prepararte la caída

Despídete del pasado
Tienes toda tu vida que liderar (x4)

Tienes toda la vida para liderar (x2)
Es hora de ganar algo de terreno
