It'll Be OK
Embracing Hope: Overcoming Darkness & Fear
Lyrics
It'll be OK, It'll be alright
Assurance that things will improve, a comforting statement
Put your hand in mine, everything is fine
Encouragement to stay connected and reassurance that everything is fine
They're just voices in your head, doesn't matter what they say
Dismissal of negative inner thoughts or doubts
It'll be alright, It'll be OK
Reiteration of the reassurance that things will be fine
Lay back, it's time to sleep
Encouragement to relax and rest
Close your eyes for some relief
Encouragement to find solace by closing one's eyes
And when the lights go out you're not alone
Assurance that one isn't alone in the darkness
Through all my doubt and all my fears
Despite personal doubts and fears, there's a sense of support
The damage done through all the years
Recognition of past struggles and their impact
Your breathing sings the softest song to me
Symbolic appreciation of the comfort in someone's breathing during sleep
And in the darkness when there's shadows
Reference to fear and anxiety in the dark
All you ever fear plays over and over
Repetition of fears and worries amplifying in the mind
It'll be OK, It'll be alright
Reiteration of the belief that things will improve
Put your hand in mine, everything is fine
Reinforcement of support and reassurance
They're just voices in your head, doesn't matter what they say
Dismissal of negative inner voices
It'll be alright, It'll be OK
Reassurance that things will eventually be okay
It's 4 A.M., I'm still awake
Description of insomnia and personal struggles in the early morning hours
I fought the terror felt heartbreak
Mention of facing fear and emotional pain
My ringing ears the soundtrack from my day
Symbolic reference to a continuous reminder of the day's stress
But I'll be here while your asleep
Commitment to be present and supportive while the other person sleeps
I promise that I'll always keep
Promise of steadfast support
I try to whisper but sometimes nothing comes out
Difficulty in communicating comfort or reassurance
Breathing deeply, I watch for sunrise
Anticipation of a new day, seeking relief through the morning
The morning light means I can finally close my eyes
The morning signifies the end of distress, a chance to rest
It'll be OK, It'll be alright
Reiteration of the belief that things will improve
Put your hand in mine, everything is fine
Encouragement and reassurance to stay connected
They're just voices in your head, doesn't matter what they say
Dismissal of negative inner thoughts or doubts
It'll be alright, It'll be OK
Reiteration of the reassurance that things will be fine
Breathing deeply, I watch for sunrise
Anticipation of relief with the morning light
The morning light means I can finally close my eyes
Reiteration of relief and the chance to rest as morning arrives
And in the darkness when there's shadows
Reference to fear and anxiety in the dark
All you ever fear plays over and over and over and over
Continued repetition of fears amplifying in the mind
