lyrics
“It’s gonna be okay”:
You’ve heard it before
You’ll hear it again
Today, you’re sure
It's funny how the whole world’s full
Of prognosticators
You take it on the chin
You take it in stride:
However you take it
You’ll be traumatized
Stuck inside the airless confines
Of a terrorized mind
And you’re tired of the trite lines:
Are they white lies
Fed by the good intentions
Of good people?
You step into a room:
It’s stifling hot
You wonder who’s talking about you
And who’s not
And why you even bothered
To show up, anyhow
Well, you’re tired of the trite lines:
Are they white lies
Fed by the good intentions
Of good people?
Should you just be grateful?
Maybe it’s true; maybe they’re right
Maybe you’re just a little blue
Just a little frightened
And maybe those skies are gonna clear
But you don’t need to hear it, you don’t need to hear it
You don’t need to hear it, you don’t need to hear it
You don’t need to hear it, you don’t need to hear it tonight
You’ve heard it before
You’ll hear it again
Today, you’re sure
It's funny how the whole world’s full
Of prognosticators
You take it on the chin
You take it in stride:
However you take it
You’ll be traumatized
Stuck inside the airless confines
Of a terrorized mind
And you’re tired of the trite lines:
Are they white lies
Fed by the good intentions
Of good people?
You step into a room:
It’s stifling hot
You wonder who’s talking about you
And who’s not
And why you even bothered
To show up, anyhow
Well, you’re tired of the trite lines:
Are they white lies
Fed by the good intentions
Of good people?
Should you just be grateful?
Maybe it’s true; maybe they’re right
Maybe you’re just a little blue
Just a little frightened
And maybe those skies are gonna clear
But you don’t need to hear it, you don’t need to hear it
You don’t need to hear it, you don’t need to hear it
You don’t need to hear it, you don’t need to hear it tonight
