On my window pane
A crimson bird takes the stage
I feel such bursting love
For this tiny soul I know not of
There’s chaos and there is peace
All at once, and it’s confusing
But it’s alright
Not to feel all right
And it’s okay
To feel okay
And it’s pretty bad
Not to feel so great
But it’s pretty great
Just to feel anything real
The sun is shining down
But I see clouds all around
I know that they’re not there
But the rain still falls through the air
You turn to me and ask:
"Hey, what’s wrong with you?
Why can’t you laugh?"
But it’s alright
Not to feel all right
And it’s okay
To feel okay
And it’s pretty bad
Not to feel so great
But it’s pretty great
Just to feel anything real
It’s alright
Not to feel all right
And it’s okay
To feel okay
And it’s pretty bad
Not to feel so great
But it’s pretty great
Just to feel anything
The thought that brings me tears
That I lost my way for all those years
I hope that I’m on track
But if I’m wrong don’t turn your back
I’m learning to be more kind
To myself but it takes time
A long time
