For Myself Today

from Sacred Precinct by Virgin Twin

lyrics

It’s okay to be sorry
It’s okay to be wrong
It’s all right to be lonely
That’s gonna make you strong
It’s okay to have feelings
It’s okay to have doubts
It’s okay to be angry
You’ve just gotta let these things out
Oh, pull yourself together now, I’m not leaving;
I’ll stay here with you long as you need me.
We’ll wait together here for the sun.
And I’ll fade into the shadows, but not until I have to,
’Cause you and I and everybody know:
You’re gonna have to be here some time,
You’re gonna have to leave here some time.

It’s all right to seek justice
It’s okay to shed tears
It’s okay to feel desperate
Without love, there’d be no fear
It’s okay to do something
It’s okay to just be
It’s okay to do nothing
It’s okay ‘cause you’re free
So pull yourself together now, I’m not leaving;
I’ll stay here with you long as you need me.
We’ll wait together here for the sun.
And I’ll fade into the shadows, but not until I have to,
’Cause you and I and everybody know:
You’re gonna have to be here some time,
You’re gonna have to leave here some time.

It’s okay to be trusted
It’s okay to stay up all night
It’s okay to get busted
Long as you know you’re in the right
It’s okay to be anguished
It’s all right to be mean, if you need to
It’s okay to languish
Long as you’ve got the means
So pull yourself together now, I’m not leaving;
I’ll stay here with you as long as you need me.
We’ll wait together here for the sun.
And I’ll fade into the shadows, but not until I have to,
’Cause you and I and everybody know:
You’re gonna have to be here some time,
You’re gonna have to leave here some time.
You’re gonna have to be you sometime.
