In The Atmosphere

[CRAIG, spoken]
I know what you're thinking:
"A kid spends five days in a psych ward
And all the sudden he's cured!"
I'm not
I'm not even close
But I'm getting there
I can feel that this is just the beginning

(sung)
We try to dig our roots up
And tie the knotting maze inside our head
We hide from understanding why we're even here
We feel like we're the screw-ups
Like we lack a common thread
A speck in the atmosphere

We work to build our walls up
We build until we're trapped inside ourselves
We search to find what we'll never see as clear
The mountain we all crawl up
You think was made for someone else
Lost in the atmosphere

[CRAIG & BOBBY]
It's like you can't ask for directions
'till everybody's lost

[CRAIG, GEORGE, LEILA, & MRS. GILNER]
It's alright
To not be alright
Survive the fire
To burn as bright
We all have to fly now
To be in the right now
If no-one's right

[CRAIG, GEORGE, AARON]
Then we're all alright
(Then we're all alright)

[CRAIG]
It's not like "where'd the pen go?"
It's hard to shake it off and start to heal
Take what you need and you get stronger as you go
From black and white to rainbow
The pain becomes that real
Stuck when you need to grow

[CRAIG, NOELLE]
Even if they're hidden
Everyone has scars

[Craig, COMPANY]
It's alright
To not be alright
You survive the fire
And burn as bright
We don't have to fight now
To live in the right now
If no-one's right

[CRAIG, GEORGE, AARON]
Then we're all alright
(Then we're all alright)

Feeling stuck not enough on the inside
Runner-up giving up on your whole life
Crack the shell around your fear
A light in the atmosphere

Take a look around you
Everybody's here

[CRAIG, AARON, NIA, LEILA, GEORGE, MRS. GILNER]
It's alright
(It's alright)
To not be alright
(To not be alright)
Survive the fire
(Survive the fire)
To burn as bright
(To burn as bright)
You'll have to fight now
To live in the right now
If no-one's right
Then we're all alright

[CRAIG, COMPANY]
Dim lit light
On in the middle of a room at night
Can't see the little bit of glow
No, wrong or right
No-one seems to bother asking
If we might need a little middle-of-the-road
How could you know

[CRAIG, spoken]
Hi! I'm Craig Gilner
I'm seventeen years old
I'm different
I'm odd, I'm unique
I'm creative, I'm- I'm afraid
I'm inspired
I'm a mess, I'm me
And I guess that's okay
'Cause I'm happier than I've ever been
And I've only just begun to live
Now this is

[CRAIG, COMPANY, sang]
Where I'm at

[CRAIG, spoken]
Any questions?
