Taking Care of Things - Cavetown

Where do the boys go when it gets cold out

Do they have a place to sleep?

Where did their mums go?

Did they get taken

Or had they had enough of taking care of things?

It’s hard to say if someone’s at fault

If I don’t do anything is it my fault?

Where do the girls go when they feel frightened

Do they have something to eat?

Where did their dads go?

Did they get taken

Or had they had enough of taking care of things?

I’ve gotta find a way to make this feel okay

When rock bottom for me is routine for someone else

I’m gonna take care of things

There’s things I need to sort out

I’m gonna take care of things

Cause they’re not where I want them right now

I know there’s good in everything

And it’ll show itself when you’re gentle to it

I’m gonna take care of things

Where does my mind go when it gets stupid?

Is there anyone in there?

Where did my friends go?

Did they get taken

Or had they had enough of going to therapy?

Sat in a cold room, The corners feel friendly

I think they’ll take care of me

My brothers are circles, My sisters quadrilaterals

And they’re all so pretty

I’m gonna take care of things

There’s things I need to sort out

I’m gonna take care of things

They’re not where I need them right now

I know there’s good in everything

And it’ll show itself when you’re gentle to it

I’m gonna take care of things
