"Good Day" lyrics

Good Day

I say to myself
Self, why are you awake again?
It's one a.m.
Standing with the fridge wide open, staring
Such a sight, florescent light
The stars are bright
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
Just 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 alright
Cause I'm alright 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
It's gonna be a good day
Just wait and see
It's gonna be OK
Cause I'm OK with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be
As long as we laugh out loud

Laugh like we're mad
Cause this crazy, mixed up beauty
Is all that we have
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 alright baby
Just wait and see"

It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be OK
It's gonna be all right
Just wait and see

Its gonna be all right
No matter what they say
Its gonna be a good day
Just wait, just see
It's gonna be OK
Cause I'm OK with me
It's gonna be
It's gonna be, it's gonna be OK

Uh oh, I'm awake again
It's one a.m.
Staring
Such a sight
Well, at least the stars are bright
