about

Our world is pretty chaotic at the moment and it seems that even if we aren't affected by big things, that we're told to "be fine" when we see images of destruction and pain. This song is about that.

lyrics

So the world burns
Just sit back and wait your turn
There's really nothing you can do

Don't try to change the way things go
Why can't you let it keep falling apart?

CHORUS:
It's alright, it's ok
Close your eyes and it will go away
It's alright, yeah it's ok
You can give it one more day

Smoke goes up as trees fall down
It all happens without even a sound
What's the use? Just focus on yourself

Cos look they're rich, oh they're slick
You could be lying over there in a ditch
Onwards, upwards till you drop
When will it stop?

CHORUS:
It's alright, it's ok
Close your eyes and it will go away
It's alright, yeah it's ok
You can give it one more day

BRIDGE:
Can't we find a way to make decisions without hurt and uncertainty?
Don't we know what matters more than money and power let the people be seen
We can't go on this way

CHORUS:
It's alright, it's ok
Close your eyes and it will go away
It's alright, yeah it's ok
You can give it one more day
