[Verse 1]
I've started taking steps, deconstructing plans
I've always wanted to be so much more than what I can
And it's alright, 'til late at night
When I'm alone, no one's awake to pick up the phone
[Verse 2]
I've started taking breaths, three quarters, hold, then let out
'Cause too much oxygen makes me feel like I'm freaking out
And it's okay, I've got all day
To lay in bed, then go to work and pretend
[Chorus]
That everything's okay
And tomorrow, I can start the change
Tonight, do what it takes to feel happy
Even if it's damaging in every way
Everything's okay
And tomorrow, I can start the changе
[Verse 3]
Been trying to do my best, I know it's not all great
But things are feeling bеtter, just a little every day
I know it won't always be so
But I can't do much more than my best and I know
[Chorus]
That everything's okay
And tomorrow, I can start the change
Tonight, do what it takes to feel happy
Even if it's damaging in every way
Everything's okay
Tomorrow, I can start the change
[Bridge]
And yeah, I'm worried that tomorrow doesn't come
I'm way too good at finding excuses to come undone
To come undone
To come undone
To come undone
I've started taking steps, deconstructing plans
I've always wanted to be so much more than what I can
[Outro]
I've started taking breaths (Everything's okay)
Three quarters, hold, then let out
(Tomorrow, I can start the change)
'Cause too much oxygen makes me feel like I'm freaking out
(Everything's okay, tomorrow I can start the change)
Everything is okay
Tomorrow I can start the change
Everything is okay
