Good Day

Jewel

i say to myself, self
why are you awake again? it's one a.m.
standin' with the fridge wide open, starin'
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 t.v.
cause it's nice to see poeple can be
more messed up than me
i say to myself
as i smile at the walls
let myself fall

it's gonna be alright
no matter what they say
it's gonna be a good day
just wait and see
it's gonna be alright
cause i'm okay with me

i shiver shut the door
can't think standin' 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
it's still your name i call

it's gonna be alright
no matter what they say
it's going to 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 are mad
cause this crazy mixed up beauty is all that we have
because what's love, but an itch we can't scrathc
a joke we can't catch
god but still we laugh
get back in bed
turn off the t.v.
you say it'll be alright, baby
just wait and see

uh-oh i'm awake again, it's one a.m.
staring
such a sight
well at least the stars are bright
