Avoiding outdoors, avoiding the streets Keeping ambitions tight on a leash Kill optimism at least ten times a week With a few sad songs and a few strong drinks The city looks dirty when your minds a blank Life's a bore when you're opposed to change Holding back will only keep you chained Staying low, you'll only waste away Everything's alright Everything's okay Everything's alright Step into the sun, you'll find your way Waiting for good to fall in your lap Like moving a muscle will make life go too fast Pull the breaks, step on the gas Some days are bad, just don't look back Won't smell the flowers outside of your loft But manage to maintain a garden of rot Inside your head like it's your best thought To cradle the pain of a broken heart But the view looks great when you've risked it all Through the rough you'll find the real and the raw You won't find it there inside of a box Inhaling stale air and watching the clock Everything's alright Everything's okay Everything's alright Step into the sun, you'll find your way Everything's alright Everything's okay Everything's alright Step into the sun, you'll find your way
