If The Day’s Okay…I’m Alright

If the day’s okay…I’m alright
I would write…What I could not say
…I tried
To convey the time that I’ve had mine…
Into my mind…I pray

If the day’s okay…I’m alright
Giving Thanks…For my angst, provides a place where my fear can reside
And my tears can revive…The lifeless eyes…I see

If the day’s okay…I’m alright
Seeking the night, when I cry in the mourning
I’m much obliged…Being twisted and contorted
Enlisted to conform with…A dissident assortment
Blended into all of us “We”

If the day’s okay…I’m alright
If I can lay my malaise away, and be
On my side…FREE…To pay the price
For me?…I think it’s too high
Too steep to wanna climb…I just wanna reach

If the day’s okay….I’m alright
I’m airtight…I’m suffocating
Before I fade to black, I light the path to my destination
Forth & Back
…Pacing…
Tracing the dot and the dash
Brazen and blatant, like I meant to do that
Risen…To raising up
I don’t give a Fuck, I care too much, and that’s a given
Dismissive…Like that’s just life, and I’m living
To take it all in…I gave up giving
For another vice, I didn’t think twice
I surrendered

But if today is ok…I’ll be alright
