Alright

I say to myself ,Self, why are you awake again? It's one a.m. Standing with the fridge door wide open, staring

Such a sight, florescent light.The stars are bright might make a wish, if I believed in that shit.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 okay,

cause I'm okay 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 mine'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 hotter.

The point of it all.Is that if I should fall? Still you're name I'll call

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.But still we laugh

I go back upstairs, turn off the TV.You say "I'll be okay baby, just wait and see."
