It's Okay

V1
You know suicide, I thought
The dark emptiness I fought
And you’re mind becomes clearer
When you’re in the dark
I am searching for a reason, I am feeling quite alone
I am drawn to your silence, and its sympathetic tones
Ch
It’s okay to walk away, and I don’t mind if you want time
To find what you need, I told myself
But it felt like time was running out
So clear ahead were all my dreams and if I left would they be lost to me
I asked myself
V2
You have looked upon the world as your uncertainty unfurled
And it was no longer a question but a widening void
I don’t understand my pain; I don’t know why I feel ashamed
And I wonder about the next step as I grapple with today
Ch
V3
Honesty brings the world to its knees, pleading to see the truth
Knowing that they won’t do enough to gain any virtue

Then the world lets me fall so it can feel stronger
And the world makes us lie so it will last longer
You have felt it, you’ve been dropped
Lost you came back with wings
I am falling but you say darling, when you hit the real journey begins
Ch
