Say to myself
"Self, why are you awake again?" It's one a.m.
Standing at the fridge wide-open, staring
Such a sight, fluorescent light, the stars are bright
I might make a wish, if I believed in that shit
But, as it is, I might watch TV
Cause it's nice to see people more messed up than me
I say to myself, as I smile at the wall
Let myself fall
"It's gonna be all right,
No matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day
Just wait and see
It's gonna be all right
Cause I'm all right with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be
It's gotta be..."
I shiver, shut the door
Can't think standing here no more
I'm alone, my mind's racing, heart breaking
Can you be everything I need you to be
Can you protect me like a daughter
Can you love me like a father
Can you drink me like water
Say I'm like the desert, just way hotter
The point of it all
Is that if I should fall
Still your name I'll call
"It's gonna be all right,
No matter what they say,
Gonna be a good day
Just wait and see
It's gonna be okay
Cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be
As long as we laugh out loud
And laugh like we're mad
Cause this crazy mixed up beauty's all that we had
Because what's love, but an itch we can't scratch
A joke we can't catch, God, but still we laugh
Get back in bed, turn off the TV
You say, "It'll be okay, baby, just wait and see"
It's gonna be all right, it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be a all right, just wait and see
It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
Gonna be a good day, just wait, just see
Gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be
It's gonna be
It's gonna be okay
Uh-oh, I'm awake again. It's one a.m.
Staring, such a sight,
Well, at least the stars are bright.
