Close your eyes
It’s all okay, it’s all okay
The years come and go
And it’s all okay, it’s all okay
The pressure weighs down
And the tears won’t stop
But it’s all okay, it’s all okay
The mirror is breaking
And you are shaking
Whispering to yourself
“It‘s all okay, it‘s all okay…”
And your dreams are falling
And you seem to be cracking
But it’s all okay, it’s all okay
And you’re lost in the dark
You’re not sure what to do
And that unfamiliar voice
Childish, broken, weak, whispering
“It‘s all okay, it‘s all okay”
You know you aren’t lying
You know it has to be true
You know you’ll smile again
So it’s all okay, it’s all okay
But you aren’t a fool
And you know it doesn’t change
And you know it’s getting worse
But that’s the way the game goes
You have to fall before you stand
You have to hit the bottom first
And then you can climb again
It has to be all okay, has to be…
You’re curled up in a ball
Remembering the past you miss
That you can’t seem to let go
Where you didn’t know the world
And there was something new
Just around the corner
And you had your friends, you could smile
Now they’re gone, and you know what’s ahead
You’ve walked these streets thousands of times
But it’s all okay, it’s all okay
And it’s another year
And you’re rocking back and forth
Scooping up the remains
That slip through your fingers
And you try and try, but they don’t stay
And it’s all okay, it’s all okay
You’ll find your place, you have too
Everyone has one, you know that
Put down the gun, put down the knife
Because it’s all okay, it’s all okay
You know the routine, you’ve been here before
You can pick up the pieces and live with pain
You know it has an end, and you count the days
And you look towards the future, tomorrow is another day
And the sun can shine, and you can smile
So it’s all okay, it’s all okay
Even if the skies are dark and stormy
And the hail bruises your skin and adds to the pain
You can endure and you can live
It’s not the end, so keep on going
It will be okay, it will be okay…

- Suicidal tendencies? This wasn't even about suicide. Sure...it crossed my mind at one point, but this is hardly about that...

- It was alright, it didn't 'blow me away' or anything. The repetition of that one line was not completely overused, which was good. The description and figurative language was just alright. The concept didn't seem too original, nor did it make me view suicidal tendencies from a different perspective. 2/5
