Pretty Good Day

verseWoke up on the right side of the grave
Sun cut through the blinds like it behaved
Coffee didn’t taste like bitter lies
Even found my keys on the first try

verseTraffic lights all turned to let me through
Radio was playing something new
Didn’t feel the weight behind my eyes
No collapse, no slow internal slide

pre-chorusHeartbeat steady, nothing out of place
No ghosts whispering in the hallway

chorusIt’s a pretty good day
Nothing falling apart
No decay in my chest
No collapse in my heart
It’s a pretty good day
And I’m fine with that
Just a pulse and a breath
And a tip of the hat

verseSidewalk cracks all missed me as I walked
Didn’t overthink a single thought
People smiled and I just smiled back
Didn’t feel the urge to counteract

pre-chorusQuiet in the corners of my head
No rehearsals for the things I dread

chorusIt’s a pretty good day
Nothing dragging me down
No abyss at my feet
No invisible crown
It’s a pretty good day
And I’m good with that
No dramatic decline
Just a simple fact

bridgeNo cathedral made of sorrow
No obsession with tomorrow
No elaborate descent
Just a day that’s well spent

instrumental break

final chorusIt’s a pretty good day
Hear the distortion ring
Every chord still burns
But it don’t mean a thing
It’s a pretty good day
Let the feedback stay
All that darkness can wait
I’m okay today

outroStill alive
Still alright
Nothing wrong
Just tonight
