It's Okay

Heavy is the mind that’s filled with worry
Paralyzed by sad news on TV
All I get from sleep are these strange and apocalyptic dreams
How do I make them leave?
I muster all my strength and look out the window
No children on the sidewalks, no cars on the streets
Isn’t it ironic, this used to be a holiday scene
Now we’re under siege
Is it okay if I close my eyes?
Is it okay if I take my time?
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Heavy is the heart that’s filled with memories
The happy, tragic, and mundane in-betweens
Joni was right when she sang
«You don’t know what you got till it’s gone»
Oh, it’s all gone
So is it okay if I close my eyes?
Is it okay if I take my time?
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
(It's okay)
(It's okay)
(It's okay)
(It's okay)
We won’t be the same
I’m forever changed
I cannot unsee
What’s in front of me
We won’t be the same
I’m forever changed
I cannot unsee
What’s in front of me
Oh, it’s all in front of me
Is it okay if I close my eyes?
Is it okay if I take my time?
Oh, is it okay if I close my eyes?
Is it okay if I take my time?
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Heavy is the soul that’s gone to war
With questions of who’s really in control
So I plead, and I plead myself to fight to see that this
Is where I’m supposed to be right now
