Not Today, Old Friend Lyrics by Eat Defeat

I Think We’ll Be Ok

0

Not today old friend
I'm trying to pretend that everything's just fine, and I'm not just wasting my time
But I can't have this conversation for the fifteen hundredth time
If I don't meet your expectations maybe they're set up too high
Because i'm great, and you're such a state
I'm done being miserable, I can't sit around and wait
Because I've been there, I've given that blank stare
I've told the world I'm doing fine when I'm as good as dead behind the еyes
It's alright to not be alright
I'm waking up tomorrow
I'm not giving up now, i'll take all my sorrows to bеd with me
I'm not sure what'll make me happy
But i'll figure it out
Live out loud through the cloud of self doubt
Try and shout when there's something to shout about
Try and weather the storm it'll pass
Light a match and just hope that it lasts
Because i've been there, i've given that blank stare
And I refuse to build a wall around myself so watch it fall
And if you ever need my help you know i'm here with outstretched arms, a helping hand, an open door, a front room floor
I'm waking up tomorrow
I'm not giving up now, i'll take all my sorrows to bed with me
I'm not sure what'll make me happy
But i'll figure it out
I think we'll be OK
I'm waking up tomorrow
I'm not giving up now, i'll take all my sorrows to bed with me
I'm not sure what'll make me happy
But i'll figure it out
I think we'll be OK
But i'm getting there
